Now Free: Password Protection, Download Stats, and No Ads

<h2>We Looked at What Others Charge For</h2> <p>Password protection on WeTransfer? That's <strong>$12/month</strong>. Download tracking on most services? Hidden behind a paid tier. Ads covering your share page? Pay to remove them.</p> <p>We thought about this for a while. Charging for basic security features felt wrong. So we stopped.</p> <h2>What You Get for Free</h2> <p>Sign up — no credit card needed — and you get:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Password-protected links</strong> — set a password on any shared file</li> <li><strong>Download statistics</strong> — see who downloaded your files and when</li> <li><strong>No ads</strong> — clean share pages, nothing getting in the way</li> <li><strong>5 GB storage</strong> — enough for most one-off transfers</li> <li><strong>7-day file expiry</strong> — files auto-delete so you don't have to</li> </ul> <h2>What's Behind the Paywall</h2> <p>Only two things separate free from paid: <strong>storage space</strong> and <strong>expiry time</strong>.</p> <p>Free gives you 5 GB with 7-day expiry. Pro bumps that to 500 GB and 30-day expiry, plus custom branding with your logo and a receive page for collecting files from clients. Two tiers. No feature gating of basics.</p> <h2>Why We Did This</h2> <p>Password protection isn't a premium feature. It's a basic expectation. If someone sends you a file with sensitive data, a password should be there by default. Not locked behind a subscription.</p> <p>Same with download stats. You should know if your file was received. That's not a luxury.</p> <p>We make money from people who need more storage and longer expiry. That's a fair trade. Paywalling security is not.</p>
