Questions before you choose
Is LinkDM Free the same as WinkSend Free?
No. LinkDM counts DMs and supports Facebook automations. WinkSend counts runs and focuses on Instagram. Test the features you need, not just the number 1,000.
Can I move three accounts at once?
Do not assume the account setup will move. Check account allowances and rebuild one flow before changing all accounts.
Is LinkDM Pro’s DM limit per account?
The official pricing sections differ on this point. Ask LinkDM to confirm the scope for your chosen billing term before buying.
