Preview documents and files before downloading
Consulting and audit work involves a lot of documents moving between a lot of people. WeTransfer gives every recipient a browser-based preview page so they can review what's inside a transfer, pick exactly what they need, and download only those files. No account required on their end.
Browse files and folders, then download
When you're sharing financial reports, audit findings, presentation decks, or supporting documents with clients and colleagues, it helps when recipients can verify they have the right files before anything downloads. WeTransfer attaches a built-in preview page to every transfer, so a client can open a PDF, scan through slides, or check a spreadsheet directly in their browser without saving a single file to their machine first. Recipients can mark individual items as favorites and leave comments on specific files, keeping review notes and sign-off feedback tied to the exact document rather than scattered across email threads. Every file arrives exactly as you uploaded it, with no compression, no reformatting, and no changes to the data. For sensitive engagements, you can add password protection or limit access to a specific list of email addresses so only the right stakeholders can open the transfer.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Yes. Every WeTransfer transfer includes a browser-based preview page where recipients can open PDFs, PowerPoint files (PPTX), Word documents (DOCX), and Excel spreadsheets (XLSX) without downloading anything first. This is useful in consulting and audit contexts where clients or approvers need to confirm they have the right version before committing to a download. No WeTransfer account is required on the recipient's side.
Yes. Anyone with access to the preview can leave comments tied to individual files within the transfer, so review notes, queries, or sign-off feedback stay attached to the exact document they relate to. Comments are off by default, but you can enable them before sending from the transfer's view options. Transfer owners receive an email notification each time a new comment is posted.
No. WeTransfer transfers files in their original state, with no compression, re-encoding, or changes to file data. A PDF, spreadsheet, or presentation arrives exactly as you uploaded it. Files are encrypted in transit using TLS and at rest using AES-256, and WeTransfer is ISO 27001 certified and GDPR-compliant, with data stored on EU servers.
When setting up a transfer, you can enable restricted access and specify a list of email addresses. Only recipients whose addresses match the list can open the transfer, after verifying their email. You can also add a password as a separate layer of protection. Both options are available on all plans and can be adjusted after sending from the transfer details page.
Yes. A single WeTransfer transfer can contain multiple file types, and recipients get one preview page covering all of them. In an audit or consulting context, that means a client can browse a findings report alongside supporting workpapers and a summary deck, and download only the files they actually need. There is no limit on the number of file types you can combine in one transfer.
