Question 1

What is MYAL and how is it different from generic link-in-bio tools?

Accepted Answer

MYAL is an executive digital identity and public profile platform built specifically for consultants, advisors, founders, creators, and independent service providers. Unlike legacy link trees that look cluttered and juvenile, MYAL delivers high-contrast editorial typography, verified executive identity checkmarks, 1-click vCard (.vcf) smartphone saves, direct WhatsApp triggers, and native media embeds engineered to convert visitors into paying clients.

Question 2

How long does it take to set up my MYAL profile?

Accepted Answer

Setting up your profile takes less than two minutes. Simply register, claim your custom handle (myal.link/yourname), select an executive design preset, and add your key links and contact channels. No coding, domain setup, or design experience is required.

Question 3

Can I change my username or handle after creating an account?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can update your handle anytime from Dashboard > Profile Settings, provided the new handle is not already claimed. When you update your handle, all links, social cards, and dynamic QR codes update automatically.

Question 4

Can I connect my own custom domain (e.g., alexander.com)?

Accepted Answer

Every user immediately receives a clean, high-authority handle at myal.link/yourname. Fully bespoke custom domain routing (mapping your own root domain or subdomain to your MYAL profile) is currently on our product roadmap for upcoming team releases.

Question 5

Can I migrate my existing links from Linktree or Carrd easily?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Simply copy your existing URLs and paste them into your MYAL Links manager. You can use section headers to categorize your links and drag-and-drop cards into your preferred order in under five minutes.

Question 6

What design presets are included with MYAL?

Accepted Answer

MYAL includes curated executive presets out of the box: Emerald Executive (crisp minimal aesthetic with deep teal accents), Obsidian Dark (high-contrast dark mode for tech founders and creators), and Ivory Editorial (warm serif editorial tones). Pro members also unlock the Custom Appearance Studio to design custom 2-stop gradient meshes and bespoke color palettes.

Question 7

Can I customize the shape and aesthetic of my link buttons?

Accepted Answer

Yes! In the Appearance Studio, you can choose from 4 button visual contours: Classic Solid Fill (high contrast), Transparent Outline (clean minimalist framing), Soft Frosted Glass (modern glassmorphism with subtle backdrop blur), and 3D Hard Brutalist (contemporary drop shadow), as well as fine-tuning button corner roundness from sharp to pill.

Question 8

Can I remove the "Made with ❤️ on MYAL" branding watermark?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On any paid plan (Pro or Pro Plus), you can toggle off the MYAL branding watermark in Dashboard > Appearance for a 100% white-labeled, bespoke client presentation.

Question 9

Can I customize my SEO page title and social OpenGraph preview cards?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pro and Pro Plus members can specify custom SEO page titles, meta descriptions, and OpenGraph preview images in Dashboard > Appearance Settings. When your link is shared on LinkedIn, WhatsApp, iMessage, or Twitter, a rich professional preview card is displayed.

Question 10

How does the 1-Click vCard Contact Save work?

Accepted Answer

When visitors tap "Save Contact" on your public profile, an official virtual contact file (.vcf) is dynamically generated and downloaded directly into their smartphone contacts (Apple iOS Contacts or Google Android Contacts), prefilled with your full name, title, organization, phone number, email, and website.

Question 11

How does the direct WhatsApp chat feature work?

Accepted Answer

When you provide your mobile number in Profile Settings, a direct "Chat on WhatsApp" button appears on your profile. When clicked, it initiates a secure WhatsApp chat session with you immediately — without forcing the visitor to manually type or save your phone number into their address book first.

Question 12

How do I obtain the official Verified Identity Checkmark badge?

Accepted Answer

Verified checkmarks are awarded to verified consultants, executives, advisors, and creators to establish immediate authenticity and combat impersonation. You can request verification directly from your Dashboard settings or by contacting support@myal.link with your profile handle and credentials.

Question 13

Can I embed YouTube videos or Spotify music inside my profile?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Simply paste any standard YouTube video URL, YouTube Shorts link, or Spotify track/album/playlist URL into your Links manager. MYAL automatically converts the link into a native responsive player so visitors can watch or listen directly on your profile page.

Question 14

How does the dynamic QR code generator work for offline events?

Accepted Answer

Every profile includes an instant vector QR code generator accessible from your dashboard and public profile. You can download high-resolution SVG or PNG QR codes to print on business cards, brochures, event badges, and keynote slides. Because your QR code always routes to your persistent handle (myal.link/yourname), you can update your links anytime without ever reprinting physical materials.

Question 15

What plans are available and how much does MYAL cost?

Accepted Answer

MYAL offers three simple plans: Free ($0 forever for up to 10 curated links and basic analytics), Pro ($1.99/month or $19.00/year — equivalent to $1.58/mo with 2 months free), and Pro Plus ($4.99/month or $48.00/year — equivalent to $4.00/mo with 2 months free).

Question 16

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

All transactions are securely handled globally by our Merchant of Record, Paddle. We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Apple Pay, Google Pay, and PayPal with automatic localized sales tax and VAT compliance.

Question 17

What is your refund policy?

Accepted Answer

We offer an unconditional 14-day 100% money-back guarantee on all new subscriptions. If MYAL does not meet your expectations within the first 14 days, simply email billing@myal.link or open a request at paddle.net for an immediate, full refund.

Question 18

How do subscription renewals and cancellations work?

Accepted Answer

Subscriptions renew automatically each month or year based on your selected billing interval. You can cancel your subscription anytime with 1 click from your Dashboard Billing portal. If you cancel, you retain full Pro features until the end of your prepaid billing period, with zero cancellation fees.

Question 19

What happens to my links and handle if I downgrade to the Free plan?

Accepted Answer

Your verified handle (myal.link/yourname) remains yours permanently. If your paid subscription ends, your account smoothly transitions to the Free plan (up to 10 active destination links, standard executive styling, and 30-day analytics) — your links and QR codes will never break.

Question 20

Do you charge a transaction fee or commission on my bookings and sales?

Accepted Answer

Zero. MYAL never takes a cut of your consulting fees, client bookings, or digital products. All payment triggers, direct WhatsApp chats, and external links go 100% directly to your payment destinations.

Question 21

How do Meta, Google Analytics 4, and TikTok Pixels work on MYAL?

Accepted Answer

Pro and Pro Plus members can connect their Meta Pixel ID, GA4 Measurement ID, and TikTok Pixel ID in Dashboard > Appearance > Tracking Pixels. MYAL automatically injects these pixels into your profile, firing standard PageView events and custom OutboundClick events whenever a visitor clicks your links, empowering you to run hyper-targeted retargeting ad campaigns.

Question 22

How is MYAL analytics privacy-friendly and GDPR compliant?

Accepted Answer

Unlike traditional tracking tools that place invasive third-party tracking cookies on visitor devices, MYAL counts unique visits using privacy-compliant daily rotating salted hashes. Zero invasive tracking cookies are stored on visitor devices, keeping your profile compliant with GDPR, ePrivacy, and CCPA standards.

Question 23

Can I export my analytics into a spreadsheet?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Pro Plus members can export raw clickstream and visitor referral logs directly to a CSV file from their Analytics tab, making it effortless to generate agency reports or conduct custom audits in Excel or Google Sheets.

Question 24

Can I make my profile private or hide it from search engines?

Accepted Answer

Yes. By default, public profiles are indexed for optimal discoverability. However, you can toggle your profile to Private at any time in Profile Settings if you want to temporarily pause public viewing or test changes before sharing.

Question 25

How do I export my data or permanently delete my account?

Accepted Answer

You retain complete ownership of your data. You can download a complete JSON archive of your profile data or permanently delete your account and all associated links at any time from Dashboard > Settings under the Danger Zone.
