See who viewed your shared files

WeTransfer shows you exactly who engages with the files you send. Whether you're sharing proposals, reports, or client documents, you can track views at a glance or dig into per-recipient detail when it matters.

Keep count of who views your transfer

When you're in finance or banking, knowing whether a client actually opened a proposal or reviewed a report is as important as sending it. Every WeTransfer transfer includes a built-in preview count, so you can see at a glance how many times your files were opened, with no extra setup required. For more precise visibility, enabling access control lets you see exactly who previewed your transfer and when, giving you a clear record of client engagement on sensitive materials. Your files are sent in their original quality, encrypted in transit and at rest, and stored on EU-based infrastructure, so confidentiality stays intact alongside your tracking. WeTransfer works entirely in the browser, and recipients can preview or download your files without creating an account.

FAQs

All your questions answered.


Every transfer automatically shows a preview count, so you can see how many times it was opened without doing anything extra. For per-recipient detail, including who specifically previewed your files and when, enable access control in tracked or restricted mode before sending. This gives you a full log you can refer back to for any transfer.


Yes. When you send a transfer with access control enabled, WeTransfer records a per-recipient preview log showing which email address viewed the transfer and at what time. For finance and banking professionals following up on proposals or term sheets, this removes the guesswork from client conversations entirely.


View tracking (previews) is always on and shows how many times your transfer was opened in the browser. Download tracking is separate and must be explicitly enabled by you before sending. Previews do not trigger email notifications to you, but with access control active, you get a detailed log of who previewed your files and when.


No. Recipients can preview and download your files without signing up for WeTransfer. This matters in finance and banking, where sending to clients, auditors, or counterparties who are not WeTransfer users is common. You get full visibility on their activity; they get frictionless access.


Files are encrypted in transit using TLS and at rest using AES-256, stored in EU data centers, and backed by ISO 27001 certified infrastructure. You can also add password protection to any transfer so only recipients who have the password can access it. WeTransfer is GDPR-compliant, and data processing agreements are available for business plans, which is useful for regulated industries like financial services.
