Everything you need to know about uploading, sharing, and managing files.

Getting Started
1

Drop your files

Go to the homepage and drag files or folders into the upload zone. You can also click to browse. No account required.

2

Set your preferences

Open Upload Settings to add a password, change the download mode, or adjust region. Free users get automatic settings that just work.

3

Share the download link

After upload completes, you get a link and a QR code. Copy the link, share it, or scan the QR. Recipients download directly from the link.

4

Track and manage

With a free account, you get a dashboard to see all your uploads, download counts, and expiry dates. Delete files early or extend their life.

Features

What every plan includes and what Pro adds.

No file size limit

All plans

Upload files of any size on any plan. A 50 MB document or a 200 GB video. No compression, no quality loss. Chunked parallel uploads handle large files reliably.

Password protection

All plans

Lock any upload with a password. Recipients must enter it before they can see or download anything. Available on every plan, including free.

One-time downloads

All plans

Create links that work exactly once. After someone downloads, the link stops working and the file is deleted. Good for contracts, credentials, or anything sensitive.

Download statistics

All plans

See how many times your files were downloaded, when, and from which countries. Available on all plans including free accounts.

Custom expiry

Pro

Pro users can choose exactly how long files stay available, from 1 hour up to 30 days. Free accounts get an automatic 7-day window.

Extend file expiry

All plans

Files about to expire? Extend them by 24 hours, 3 days, or 7 days. Available on every download page.

Custom branding

Pro

Pro users can add their brand name, color, logo, and welcome message to download pages. Pick from 4 branded templates: Default, Minimal, Professional, or Creative.

Receive pages

Pro

Pro users get a personal URL (easyfileupload.io/u/your-brand) where clients and collaborators can upload files directly to you. Every received file lands in your inbox.

API access

Pro

Pro users can generate API keys and upload files programmatically. Build file sharing into your own apps or workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Credits

Credits are a flexible currency that lets you extend files, buy more storage, and gift upgrades to friends. They're separate from your subscription plan.

How credits work
Every account has a single credit balance. Credits are earned by using the platform (signing up, verifying your email, sharing files) and can be spent to extend file expiry, buy extra storage, or send as a gift.
How to earn
  • Welcome bonus on signup
  • Verify your email
  • Complete your first upload
  • Refer a friend who signs up
  • Redeem a promo code

Open the Credits card on your dashboard to see current amounts and your referral link.

What credits unlock
  • Extend a file: 1 credit = 24h, 3 = 3 days, 5 = 7 days, 10 = 30 days
  • Buy storage packs without going through checkout
  • Gift credits to another account
