Temporary links give you control over how long content is accessible. A flash sale link that expires in 24 hours creates real urgency. A beta invite link that expires in 7 days prevents it from spreading beyond your intended audience. A trial access link that expires in 1 hour keeps your product demos tight. Meshalive temporary links are completely free — create as many as you need with no account required.
Flash sales & promotions
Create a sale landing page link that expires exactly when your offer ends. Customers who click after expiry know the sale is over.
Private document sharing
Share a private Google Doc or Notion page link that expires after 24 hours. Great for sending proposals or reports securely.
Trial & beta access
Give beta testers or prospects a temporary access link. After it expires, they'll need to sign up for continued access — converting trials to users.
Time-limited invites
Event RSVPs, webinar registrations, or WhatsApp group invite links that automatically close after your deadline passes.
What is a temporary link?+
A temporary link is a URL that automatically stops working after a set time period. When the expiry time is reached, anyone clicking the link will see a "link expired" message instead of being redirected. This is useful for sharing time-sensitive content, trial access pages, promotional offers, or private documents.
What happens when a temporary link expires?+
When a Meshalive temporary link expires, visitors are shown a link-expired page rather than being redirected to the original URL. The link is deactivated automatically — you do not need to manually delete it.
Can I extend a temporary link after creating it?+
Anonymous temporary links cannot be extended after creation. To manage link expiry, create a free Meshalive account — registered users can edit expiry dates, update destinations, and view click analytics for all their links.
What is a self-destructing link?+
A self-destructing link is a URL that automatically deactivates itself after being clicked once or after a specific time period. Meshalive temporary links expire by time — create the link with your chosen expiry window and share it confidently.
What are the best use cases for temporary links?+
Temporary links are ideal for: trial product access (e.g., "Try for 24 hours"), flash sale landing pages, private event registration pages, time-limited coupon or promo codes, beta testing invites, and temporary file download links. They create urgency and automatically close access when needed.
