See exactly who's viewed your retail images

Sharing product shots, lookbooks, or campaign visuals with buyers and partners is only useful if you know they've actually landed. WeTransfer shows you who previewed your images in the browser and who downloaded them, giving your retail team a clear picture of engagement before the next conversation.

Keep count of who views your transfer

Retail teams send images constantly: seasonal campaign assets, product photography, line-sheet visuals, and packaging mockups all move between buyers, merchandisers, and creative agencies on tight timelines. WeTransfer's Transfers panel separates in-browser previews from full downloads, so you can tell whether a buyer has browsed through your lookbook or saved the files to their device. Enabling download tracking links every access event to a verified email address, giving your account managers and merchandising teams a named record to act on rather than a vague follow-up hunch. For images meant only for specific contacts, such as an exclusive range preview for a key wholesale account, you can restrict the transfer to a defined list of email addresses so the files stay within the right hands. Every image arrives in its original resolution, with no compression or quality loss, so product shots and campaign photography look exactly as your studio prepared them.

FAQs

All your questions answered.


Yes. WeTransfer tracks previews and downloads as separate events, so you can see whether a buyer has opened your images in the browser or saved them to their device. From your Transfers panel you can check the status of any transfer at a glance, and when download tracking is enabled, each event is tied to a verified email address and a timestamp so you know exactly who engaged and when.


Before uploading, open the transfer settings panel and enable download tracking. Once the transfer is sent, any time a recipient previews or downloads your images you'll receive a notification with their verified email address and the exact time of access. You can also check the full activity record from the transfer's detail page in your Transfers panel.


Yes. When setting up your transfer, enable the Restricted access option and add the email addresses of the contacts you want to grant access to. Anyone who opens the link will need to verify their email, and access is only granted if they match your list, keeping confidential product imagery away from anyone outside the intended group.


Yes. When download tracking is enabled, each access event is logged individually with the recipient's verified email address and a timestamp, so you can see which specific contacts at a buying team or agency have engaged with your images and which still haven't opened them.


Yes. Recipients can view images directly in the browser before deciding what to download, and WeTransfer has recorded over 59 million preview sessions since launch. This is particularly useful for large product photography packs where a buyer may only need to download selected images rather than the full set, saving time on both sides.
