Send something now →For years, WeTransfer was the gold standard for free file sharing: no account needed, generous file sizes, and a clean user experience. That changed when Bending Spoons acquired WeTransfer in 2023.
Within months, free users were hit with a monthly transfer cap, reduced file size limits, shorter availability windows, and upsell prompts on every screen. The message was clear: WeTransfer was no longer designed for free users.
freesend.io was built as a direct response. The service offers everything the old WeTransfer had — up to 100 GB, unlimited transfers, 7-day availability — funded by non-intrusive video ads.
WeTransfer Free (2026): 10 transfers/month, 3 GB max, 3-day availability, aggressive upsells.
freesend.io: Unlimited transfers, 100 GB per transfer, 7-day availability, zero upsells — funded by non-intrusive ads during upload and download.
The sender verifies their email once per transfer. Recipients download with one click. No registration required.
Yes. freesend.io is completely free with no hidden fees, no subscription tiers, and no storage limits. The service is funded by non-intrusive video ads that play during upload and download — that's the entire business model.
WeTransfer's free plan was significantly degraded in 2024: limited to 10 transfers per month, 3 GB maximum file size, and only 3-day availability. freesend.io offers unlimited transfers, 100 GB per transfer, and 7-day availability — all free.
No account is required. You provide your email address for sender verification, but there is no registration, no password, and no profile to create.
Files are available for 7 days from the time of upload. After 7 days, the files are automatically and permanently deleted from our servers.
freesend.io supports all common file types — videos, images, documents, ZIP archives, RAW photos, design files, and more.
