Branded file transfers built for education
In education, how you share materials says as much about your institution as the content itself. WeTransfer Ultimate lets you wrap each transfer in a custom background image and a written description, so course packs, research files, and creative briefs reach students, faculty, and partners as a thoughtfully presented package rather than an anonymous download.
Your transfers, personalized
Educators and education professionals share a wide range of materials, from curriculum resources and design portfolios to assessment briefs and accreditation documents, and every handoff is an opportunity to reinforce institutional identity. Per-transfer customization on WeTransfer Ultimate lets you pair each delivery with a distinct visual and a message tailored to that specific recipient or cohort, giving context and character to what might otherwise feel like a generic link. Files of any type, including large video lectures, high-resolution artwork, audio recordings, and multi-page PDFs, travel in their original quality with no compression or re-encoding, so nothing is lost between creation and delivery. Students and collaborators can preview compatible files directly in the browser, leave comments on individual items, and mark favorites before choosing what to download, all without creating an account. For sensitive materials like exam papers, student submissions, or confidential faculty resources, you can restrict access to specific email addresses, add a password, or combine both.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Yes. Per-transfer customization on WeTransfer Ultimate is applied at the individual transfer level, so you can give each delivery its own background image and written description. That means a course pack going to a photography cohort can look and read entirely differently from a research brief going to a postgraduate group, with no shared template forcing uniformity across your communications.
WeTransfer handles virtually any file type used in education, including PDFs, Word and PowerPoint documents, spreadsheets, video lectures, audio recordings, high-resolution images, design files, ZIP archives, and 3D or CAD files. All files travel in their original format without modification, so layouts, embedded fonts, and media quality remain exactly as you prepared them.
No account is needed to download or preview a transfer. Recipients simply open the link in any browser, and compatible files such as PDFs, images, video, and audio can be previewed directly on the page before downloading. They can also leave comments on individual files and mark favorites, which is useful for feedback workflows in creative or design programs.
WeTransfer gives you several access controls you can apply to any transfer. You can add a password that recipients must enter before downloading, restrict access to a specific list of email addresses so only named individuals can open the files, or use both together for an extra layer of protection. These controls are available on all plans and can be set before sending or adjusted afterward from your transfers panel.
Yes. For email transfers, your transfers panel shows a status for each recipient and a timestamp for when they downloaded. You can also enable tracked downloads, which prompts anyone opening the link to verify their email address and logs each download in the transfer's activity details. This makes it straightforward to follow up with students who haven't yet accessed materials ahead of a deadline.
