Drop your ZIP files in and send
Sending a ZIP archive through WeTransfer is as simple as dragging it onto the homepage. The upload begins the moment your file lands, and recipients get a clean download link — no account, no app, no friction on either end.
Uploading made effortless
Developers, agencies, and anyone bundling files for handoff often reach for a ZIP, and WeTransfer is built to handle them without ceremony. Drag your archive straight onto the WeTransfer homepage and the upload kicks off immediately — you pick your recipients or grab a shareable link once it is already on its way. Your ZIP arrives exactly as you packed it: no re-compression, no tampering with the contents, so the folder structure and every file inside comes through intact. Once a transfer is ready, you can lock it behind a password or restrict access to specific email addresses, which is useful when the archive contains client assets or anything sensitive. If you want a record of who actually grabbed the files, download tracking lets you see exactly when each recipient opened the link.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Open wetransfer.com in your browser, then drag your ZIP file from your desktop or file manager directly onto the homepage upload area. The upload starts the moment the file lands. Once it finishes, you can enter recipient email addresses for direct delivery or switch to a shareable link you can send anywhere.
No. WeTransfer sends your ZIP exactly as it is, without adding another layer of compression or touching anything inside. Whatever you packed into the archive — folder structure, file types, filenames — arrives at the other end unchanged.
Yes. With a link transfer, a single shareable URL works for any number of recipients — paste it into a chat, email thread, or project tool and everyone gets the same file. If you prefer email delivery, you can address the transfer to up to 10 recipients on a free account, or up to 50 on a paid plan.
On a free account, transfers are available for up to 3 days. WeTransfer Ultimate gives you flexible expiry options, including keeping a transfer available indefinitely, and lets you recover expired transfers even after the link has gone dark. You can also adjust the expiry date of any active transfer from your Transfers panel at any time.
No account is needed to download. Recipients click the link or the button in their notification email, accept the terms, and download the file straight to their device. They can also preview supported file types inside the ZIP — like images and PDFs — directly in the browser before deciding what to download.
