How can I set or modify the expiry date of my transfer?

You can set the expiry date for a transfer before you upload, or change it afterwards from your Transfers panel.

Set expiry before uploading

1. Click the ellipsis button on the bottom left of the transfer panel, or directly click Expires in on the dedicated dropdown menu.
2. Select the amount of time you want your transfer to stay online.

Change expiry after sending

1. Go to the Transfers tab at the top of your account.
2. Under Sent, click on the transfer you want to update.
3. Find the Expiration date field and open the dropdown.
4. A calendar will appear — select the new expiry date.

The recipient's email shows the expiry date at the time of sending. If you change it afterwards, let them know manually.

Set a default expiry as an Ultimate user

1. In the transfer window, open the Expires in dropdown.
2. Select your preferred duration and click Transfer to send.
3. The option you chose will be saved as your new default. You can change it again the same way next time you send a transfer.

Recovery after expiry

When you create a new transfer, the recovery option is enabled by default. This allows the transfer to be recovered for a limited time after it expires, depending on file size. You can disable this in the transfer settings before uploading.
