About KWY

What is KWY?

KWY is a free, anonymous URL shortener available at kwy.uk. Paste any long link and receive a compact kwy.uk/xxxxxx URL instantly — no account, no email, no registration required.

Every short link comes with a private delete link and an automatic QR code, both generated at the moment of creation. Download the QR code as PNG, share it directly from your phone, or use it in print materials — all in one step. You can shorten any URL in under a second, or read more about how KWY compares to other tools on the free link shortener page.

How It Works

• Paste your long URL into the form on the homepage.
• KWY validates the URL and generates a unique 6-character short code.
• You receive your short link, a one-time delete link, and a QR code — save the delete link.
• Download the QR code as PNG or share it directly from your phone.
• Anyone who visits the short link is redirected to the original destination.
• Use your delete link at any time to permanently remove the short link.

What We Collect

When you shorten a URL we store the original URL, a short code, your IP address, your browser's user-agent string, and the creation timestamp. This data is used solely to operate the redirect service. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
