The App-Open Receipt: Your Link Stats, Now a Flex

Zippy already tracks the number nobody else can: when someone taps your link, did the native app actually open — or did they get stuck in the in-app browser? Today that number becomes something you can post: the app-open receipt, a share-ready brag card showing the % of your taps that opened the real app.

What you get

A bold card with your short link, a huge percentage, and a split bar of the raw counts — how many taps opened the app vs. stayed in the browser. It's sized for social, so it looks right in a story, a post, or a group chat where you're feeling smug.

Plain links get trapped in the in-app browser. Your receipt shows yours didn't.

The number is real

This isn't a vibes metric. The percentage comes from Zippy's outcome beacon — the interstitial that springs the native app reports back whether the app actually opened, per tap, over the last 90 days. The same data that powers your dashboard stats powers the card, so they always agree.

And if a link has no taps yet? No card. You'll get a friendly "no taps yet — share your link first" instead. Zippy never fakes a number, because a receipt you can't trust isn't a receipt.

How to get yours

• Dashboard: hit the Receipt button on any link — the card renders instantly.
• Mobile app: tap the receipt button on a link's detail screen and it goes straight into the share sheet, caption included.

The card is generated fresh every time, so when your number climbs, just post a new one.

Free. For everyone.

The app-open receipt is on every plan, including free. Every card carries a small zipthe.link corner — that's how the next creator finds out their links could be opening the real app too. You flex, they discover, everybody's links get better. ⚡

The gist

Your link stats are finally a flex: the % of taps that opened the real app, on a card, in one tap — honest numbers only, free for everyone. Every knob is in the receipt docs; it shipped here in the changelog.
