How to Add Depop Link to Instagram Bio & TikTok Bio
Learn how to add a Depop link to your Instagram bio and TikTok bio, find your store URL, and use best practices to avoid link issues.
Understanding bio links
A bio link is the single external URL shown on your profile page. People tap it to jump from your social account to a product page, store, or checkout. It matters because most viewers will not search for your Depop profile after seeing your posts.
Instagram bio and TikTok bio both use a dedicated place for an external link. Without it, you rely on DMs or comments to move people off-platform. A clear link can also reduce friction for buyers who are ready now.
Think of the bio link as your “fast lane.” Every post becomes an easy path to your Depop selling page.
How to locate your Depop link
Before you paste anything, you need the exact URL for your Depop store or profile. Start by opening Depop and searching for your own profile. Use the profile page that shows your store listing, not a random shared item page.
On mobile, tap your profile picture or username to open your store view. Then copy the link from your browser address bar or the share menu. If you use a share button, choose “Copy link” so you get a clean URL.
To verify it works, open the link in a private browser tab. It should land on your Depop profile or store and load your listings.
- Confirm you are copying your store/profile URL, not just an item URL
- Test the copied link in an incognito or private tab
- Keep the same link for consistency across Instagram and TikTok

Steps to add your Depop link on Instagram bio
Use these steps to publish your Depop link in the Instagram bio. This is the standard place for an external URL on your profile. The exact wording can vary slightly by app version, but the path stays similar.
First, open Instagram and go to your profile. Tap “Edit profile,” then find the field labeled “Website” (sometimes shown as “Link”). Paste your Depop URL there and save your changes.
After you save, go back to your profile and tap the link section. It should redirect to your Depop page. If it does not, double-check that the URL begins with “https://”.
- Open Instagram and tap your profile picture
- Tap “Edit profile”
- Find the “Website” or “Link” field
- Paste your Depop store URL
- Tap “Done” or “Save”
If you want to help buyers find items faster, choose one link you update as needed. For example, some sellers rotate between a store page and a featured bundle page. If you change links often, track what people click.
Adding your Depop link on TikTok bio
TikTok also supports an external link field in your profile. This makes cross-promotion simple when you post product videos and want viewers to browse your Depop listings. The menu names can change, but you are looking for the “Website” or “Link” section.
Open the TikTok app and open your profile. Tap “Edit profile,” then add your Depop URL in the Website field. Save the profile and verify the link opens correctly.
To improve results, consider matching your videos to the landing page. If your link goes to your store, viewers can browse everything you sell. If it goes to a specific item, it can boost intent but may limit discovery.
- Open TikTok and go to your profile
- Tap “Edit profile”
- Find the “Website” or “Link” field
- Paste your Depop store URL
- Tap “Save”

Best practices for using bio links effectively
Adding the link is only step one. The best performing creators treat the bio link like part of their social media marketing flow. That means making it easy to notice and easy to trust.
First, keep your bio language aligned with the link destination. If your link is your Depop store, your bio should point people to “shop my Depop” or “browse my listings.” If it is a specific page, mention what they will see when they tap.
Second, use link management when you run promos. Link management tools let you reuse one stable URL while swapping destinations behind the scenes. This helps if you want to test different landing pages without updating Instagram and TikTok every time.
| Goal | Bio link approach |
|---|---|
| Most consistent browsing | Link directly to your Depop store/profile |
| Launch a drop or sale | Use a single managed link that routes to the promo page |
| Track what converts | Send traffic to different landing pages and compare clicks |
Finally, consider how you handle item discovery. Many Depop selling tips focus on strong listings. Your bio link supports those efforts by giving the viewer a clear next click to explore.
Potential issues and troubleshooting
Some issues show up right away after saving your bio link. The most common cause is pasting the wrong URL. For example, copying an item link instead of your store can confuse buyers who expect to browse your whole collection.
Another frequent problem is formatting. If you paste a link with missing characters or no “https://”, the platform may reject it or redirect poorly. Always test the link on your own profile after saving.
Finally, watch for caching delays. If you recently updated the bio link, it may take a few minutes to show correctly for all viewers. Wait and refresh both your profile view and your friend’s view on a separate device.
- Problem: Link opens to an error page. Fix: Re-copy your Depop store URL and re-paste it.
- Problem: Link goes to the wrong place. Fix: Confirm you copied your profile/store link, not a specific listing.
- Problem: Link field won’t save. Fix: Remove extra spaces and ensure the URL starts with https://.
- Problem: Viewers report it doesn’t work. Fix: Test on mobile data and a different phone browser.
If you cross-promote heavily, also review your external links on social platforms. Platforms can treat new links differently when your account is flagged for spam. Keeping your link updates clean and limited can prevent extra review delays.
Once your Depop link works, treat it as a repeatable system. Post consistently, guide viewers to tap, and refine what your link leads to over time.
