Why switch from Beacons to Hyax
Same ballpark, full stack
Beacons Pro is often around $30/mo for creator link pages. Hyax is $29/mo with link-in-bio plus a real site, email engine, courses, and 0% platform fees on your sales.
Link page is the start, not the ceiling
Beacons centers on a bio link. Hyax gives you long-form SEO, blog, and branded pages — so fans discover you on search, not only from social taps.
Own the relationship
Link tools send traffic outward. Hyax captures subscribers, runs automations and sequences, and sells memberships — without duct-taping a separate ESP.
