How to Create a Free Digital Menu for Your Restaurant in 5 Minutes

Traditional paper menus come with hidden costs: reprinting for price changes, updating seasonal items, and the constant need for cleaning or replacement. A digital menu solves all of this — and it's completely free with Lynxs.

Step 1: Sign up for Lynxs (free, no credit card)

Head to Lynxs.pro and create your account. You'll get a customizable link-in-bio page that can host multiple links — including your digital menu.

Step 2: Create or upload your menu

You can either create a menu directly using our flipbook tool (upload a PDF) or link to an existing Google Docs menu, Canva design, or online ordering system.

Step 3: Generate your QR code

Once your menu link is added to your Lynxs page, click "Generate QR Code". Download it in high resolution for printing on table tents, receipts, or window stickers.

Step 4: Display and update easily

Print your QR codes once. Whenever you change your menu, update the link on Lynxs — the QR code stays the same. No reprinting, no hassle.

Pro tip: Use a custom subdomain like menus.yourrestaurant.com for a professional look.

The Best Free Linktree Alternative in 2026

Linktree was a pioneer, but its pricing model has become restrictive. Many essential features — like analytics, custom icons, and multiple link blocks — are locked behind a paid subscription. Lynxs gives you all of that for free.

What you get with Lynxs (free tier)

  • Unlimited links — no artificial limits
  • Custom branding — remove Lynxs watermark
  • Basic analytics — see which links get clicks
  • Custom icons — brand each link with an emoji or icon
  • QR code generation — for every link
  • Mobile-optimized themes — choose from 10+ designs

How to set up your Lynxs page

Create your free account at Lynxs.pro, then add your links — Instagram, YouTube, newsletter, store, etc. Arrange them in any order. Customize colors, fonts, and background. Then share your lynxs.pro/username link everywhere.

Why creators love Lynxs

"I switched from Linktree Pro and saved $60/year. The analytics are enough for my needs, and the interface is cleaner." — Jamie, content creator

How to Turn a PDF Into an Interactive Flipbook Online

A flipbook looks like a real magazine — pages turn with animation, it's mobile-friendly, and it keeps readers engaged longer than a static PDF. Here's how to create one with Lynxs.

Step 1: Prepare your PDF

Make sure your PDF is print-ready (300 DPI if possible) and that all fonts are embedded. For catalogs, include clickable links if you want them to work in the flipbook.

Step 2: Upload to Lynxs Flipbook tool

After logging in, go to Tools → Flipbook Maker. Upload your PDF file (up to 100MB free). Our tool automatically converts each page into a high-quality image layer.

Step 3: Customize the viewer

Choose between a light or dark interface, enable or disable download buttons, and set your brand color. You can also add a logo that appears on every page.

Step 4: Get your shareable link and embed code

Once processed, you'll get a unique URL (e.g., lynxs.pro/flipbook/your-catalog) and an embed code for your website. Share on social media, email, or print a QR code.

Bonus: Track engagement

See how many people opened your flipbook, average time spent, and which pages they viewed most — all free on Lynxs.
