Frequently Asked Questions
Why did Higher App choose ChottuLink for deep linking?
Higher App chose ChottuLink for its ultra-low latency (handling millions of votes during peak events like SBS Inkigayo), accurate deferred deep linking (new fans land directly on the right artist or voting page after install), and KakaoTalk optimization for Korean messaging app compatibility — all at enterprise-grade scale.
What is deferred deep linking and how does it help K-POP fan voting?
Deferred deep linking preserves the link destination through an app install. When a new fan clicks a voting link and doesn't have the Higher App, they're directed to the App Store, install the app, and land directly on the artist or event voting page — not the home screen. This converts casual clicks into active voters.
How does ChottuLink handle massive voting traffic spikes?
ChottuLink runs on an AWS backend designed for high-concurrency workloads. It handles millions of simultaneous link clicks and vote actions during major K-POP events without downtime, maintaining real-time vote capture at ultra-low latency.
Does ChottuLink support KakaoTalk and Korean messaging apps?
Yes. ChottuLink is optimized for KakaoTalk and other Korean messaging apps, in addition to global platforms like Instagram, WhatsApp, Telegram, TikTok, and Snapchat. This is critical for K-POP fandom apps where most fan sharing happens through Korean messaging platforms.
