Send documents recipients can read before downloading
WeTransfer generates a preview page for every transfer you send. Recipients can open PDFs, Word documents, and spreadsheets directly in the browser, read through them, and decide what to save — without needing an account or any software installed.
Browse files and folders, then download
When you share documents through WeTransfer, recipients land on a preview page where they can read PDFs, Office files, and more right in their browser before a single file hits their hard drive. That means a client reviewing a proposal, a colleague checking a report, or a collaborator scanning a brief can all get eyes on the work immediately, without committing to a download first. From the same page, viewers can mark individual files as favorites and leave comments tied directly to specific documents, so feedback stays attached to the work rather than arriving in a separate thread. Every file is delivered exactly as you uploaded it, with no alterations, compression, or quality changes of any kind. A free account is all you need to start sending.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Recipients can preview PDFs, Word documents (DOC and DOCX), PowerPoint presentations (PPT and PPTX), Excel spreadsheets (XLS and XLSX), RTF, ODT, ODS, CSV, and plain text files directly in the browser. Images, audio, and video files in the transfer are also previewable on the same page. No plug-ins or apps are required on the recipient's end.
Yes. Anyone with access to the preview page can leave a comment attached to a specific file in the transfer. If they are not logged in to WeTransfer, they just enter a name and email address — no account is needed. You receive an email notification for each new comment, and the comments stay linked to the individual document rather than arriving separately.
No. WeTransfer delivers your files exactly as you uploaded them. There is no re-encoding, reformatting, or quality reduction at any point, so a PDF with embedded fonts or a presentation with high-resolution graphics comes out identical to what you sent.
Yes, on all plans you can add a password to a transfer so only recipients who know it can open the preview page. You can also enable restricted access, which locks the transfer to a specific list of email addresses — anyone else who opens the link will be denied entry. Both settings can be configured before sending or updated afterward from your Transfers panel.
Yes. When you create a link transfer, WeTransfer generates a shareable URL you can post in a message, embed in an email, or share on social media. Anyone with the link can open the preview page and browse your documents in the browser. There is no cap on the number of people who can access a link transfer, so it works just as well for a single reviewer as for a larger audience.
