What is a Universal Book Link and how do I use it?
A Universal Book Link is one smart link that sends each reader to your book in their preferred store. Use it everywhere you promote — bio, posts, newsletter.
Last updated 2026-06-15
A Universal Book Link (UBL) is a single link for your book that automatically routes each reader to the store they prefer — Amazon, Apple, Kobo, Google Play, and more — instead of forcing everyone to one retailer.
Why it beats a plain store link
- No lost readers. A Kobo user clicking an Amazon-only link may give up. A UBL shows them Kobo.
- One link to share everywhere — your bio, social posts, email signature, newsletter, and ads.
- It updates automatically as your book goes live in more stores.
Where to find and use it
Every book you publish on Chiify gets its UBL. Grab it from the book's page and use it as your default "buy" link.
Put it in:
- Your social media bios and pinned posts.
- The back matter of your other books ("also by this author").
- Your newsletter and author website.
- Any promotion you run — see how to run a price promotion.
Pair it with an author page
Link your UBLs from your Chiify author page so a single profile showcases everything you have written.
One link, every store, zero readers lost — use it everywhere.
