The web, with the noise turned down.
MUGA quiets 450+ tracking patterns from every link you open — locally, in your browser, without breaking pages. And unlike other URL cleaners, it keeps the affiliate referrals that pay the creators you follow.
URL cleaners shouldn't punish the creators you follow.
When you click a YouTuber's Amazon link, that ?tag=… parameter is how they get paid —
a few cents per sale, at no extra cost to you. Most cleaners strip it along with the noise. MUGA tries not to.
We maintain an explicit allowlist of 6 affiliate programs. When MUGA detects one of those tags, it preserves the referral and shows a small Creator referral preserved toast so you know it happened.
The rules are open-sourced as CAPS — the Creator Affiliate Preservation Standard — so any URL cleaner can do the same.
Read the source. Watch the network tab.
