King Monetized URL Shortener is a PHP-MySQL URL shortening platform with built-in monetization for publishers, advertisers and administrators.

The platform supports multiple short-link modes including interstitial, direct tokenized redirects and frame links. Publishers can control advertising preferences for individual links, while advertisers can create CPM campaigns with budgets, country and device targeting, creatives and conversion tracking.

The system includes publisher and advertiser dashboards, real-time counters, daily statistics rollups, country and device breakdowns, CSV reporting, referrals and configurable publisher rates. Multi-domain support allows short links to operate across multiple domains with canonical routing.

A built-in CMS provides blog, help center and custom pages, while the administration area handles users, roles, branding, payout rules, campaigns, rates, gateways and security settings. The platform also includes an installation wizard, cron-based earnings and statistics processing, and an API for programmatically creating short links.

Payment gateways include PayPal and Razorpay, while security features include CSRF protection, CAPTCHA, 2FA support, secure sessions and Google Safe Browsing integration.
