## Key features

- **Transfers by email or link:** Files are sent to recipients by email or shared as a download link. Anyone can download them without logging in or signing up.
- **Passwords and expiry dates:** A transfer can be protected with a password and given an expiry date. Free transfers expire after up to 3 days; Ultimate allows unlimited expiry.
- **File requests:** A request link lets other people upload files to the account holder, who can then track and manage what has been received.
- **Download tracking:** Senders can see download counts and status for each transfer and manage, forward or delete sent transfers from the account's Transfers panel.
- **Branding and personal page:** Ultimate adds custom branding per transfer, and an account can have its own WeTransfer page with a custom URL, wallpapers and social links.
- **Mac and mobile apps:** The Mac app sends files from the menu bar or by right-clicking in Finder. iOS and Android apps send, receive and manage transfers from a phone.

## Good for

- Sending large files to clients who should not need an account
- Freelancers and studios that want branded delivery pages
- Occasional personal transfers within the free monthly allowance

## Worth knowing

- The Free plan is for non-commercial use only and is capped at 3 GB and 10 transfers a month.
- Starter is limited to 300 GB of transfers a month; removing the size limit needs Ultimate at $23 a month.
- An account stores up to 2 TB of transfers by default on any plan, and WeTransfer says it does not offer unlimited storage.
- Teams needs at least 2 users, and single sign-on and end-to-end encryption are listed only for Enterprise.
