How to Create a Pinterest Deep Link, Step by Step

A Pinterest deep link opens a pin, board or profile directly in the Pinterest app. From other social apps, a regular pinterest.com link opens in a built-in browser where the visitor is logged out and cannot save the pin to their boards.

  1. Copy the link to your pin, board or profile.
  2. Paste it into DSLink — in the iOS app or your dashboard on dslink.me — and pick a short, readable slug such as dslink.me/pins.
  3. Check the result in the live tester on this page for iPhone and Android before you publish it.
  4. Share it in your bio, blog posts and newsletters.

What happens when someone taps your link

  • On a phone, DSLink opens the Pinterest app directly on the exact pin, board or profile. If the visitor is already signed in there, they can act right away instead of logging in again inside a built-in browser.
  • If Pinterest is not installed, the visitor is sent to the Pinterest web page instead, so the link never dead-ends.
  • On a desktop computer there is no app to open, so the visitor goes straight to the regular web page with an instant redirect.
  • Pasted into Telegram, WhatsApp, iMessage, Discord or X, the link shows a proper preview card instead of an anonymous short URL.
  • Every tap is counted in your DSLink statistics, with link-preview bots and crawlers filtered out.

Where Pinterest deep links pay off

  • Product and recipe pins. Visitors save the pin in one tap, which keeps it in their feed.
  • Growing followers. Turn your audience on other platforms into Pinterest followers.
  • Seasonal campaigns. Use a slug per campaign to see what drives saves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do Pinterest pin links open in a browser instead of the mobile app?

When users tap standard Pinterest links inside Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or blogs, mobile browsers open a web preview that requires signing into Pinterest. Because users rarely remember their credentials inside embedded webviews, creators lose up to 65% of potential saves, repins, and product clicks.

What is the URL scheme for Pinterest pins and boards?

The native iOS URI scheme is pinterest://pin/{pin_id} for individual pins, pinterest://board/{username}/{board_slug} for boards, and pinterest://user/{username} for creator profiles. On Android, an explicit intent (intent://pinterest.com/pin/{id}#Intent;package=com.pinterest;scheme=https;end) is used.

Can I use Pinterest deep links for affiliate marketing and e-commerce?

Yes! E-commerce stores (Shopify, Etsy, Amazon) and affiliate marketers use DSLink to send traffic directly to high-converting product pins inside the Pinterest app where users can buy or save with 1 tap.

How does desktop traffic behave?

Desktop users are automatically routed to the official Pinterest web page in their desktop browser, ensuring 100% device compatibility.
