May 2026 Updates

Here is a summary of what changed across Short.io in May 2026.

Features​

  • Invite teammates to your organization — Adding a member now sends them an invitation to accept, instead of adding them directly. Admins can change a member's role, and the add-member screen explains what admin and member roles can do.
  • Custom organization logo (Enterprise) — Enterprise organizations can now upload their own logo.
  • New free domain: s.gy — s.gy replaces short.gy as the default free domain for new short links.
  • New edge locations: Brazil and Thailand — Redirects are now served from new regions in Brazil and Thailand for lower latency in those areas.
  • Bank Account payments — You can now pay for your subscription via Bank Account, in addition to cards and PayPal.
  • Dedicated IP (Enterprise) — Enterprise plans now include a dedicated IP.
  • Folder colors — Pick a color for a folder right from the create-folder popup.

Improvements​

  • Redesigned empty link list — When you have no links yet, the list now shows an inline shortener and quick actions with clearer guidance.

  • Account sidebar — A reworked identity card with an inline organization switcher and a logout shortcut.
  • Smoother domain purchase — Clearer billing errors, required-field markers, and improved phone handling during domain purchase.
  • Mobile-friendly Connect Domain — The connect-domain screens have been redesigned to work well on mobile.
  • Stripe payment form — Now renders correctly in dark mode and matches the rest of the site's inputs.
  • Cleaner email display — Emails signed in via SAML no longer show a saml: prefix.
  • More reliable wildcard certificates — Wildcard SSL certificates are now issued through Let's Encrypt.
  • Higher link-suggestion rate limit — The link suggestions endpoint now allows more requests per second.
