Transfer code files online for free
WeTransfer lets developers and technical teams move code quickly from any browser. Upload your files, share a download link or send directly to someone's inbox, and whoever receives them can download everything without signing up for an account.
The simplest, free way to share
Getting code to a colleague, client, or collaborator should not require setting up a repository, compressing archives by hand, or asking anyone to install software. WeTransfer works entirely in the browser, handles any file type a developer typically deals with, and delivers every file exactly as it was uploaded with no re-encoding or modification. Each transfer gets a unique download link you can drop into a pull request comment, a chat thread, or an email, and anyone with the link can access the files straight away. You can also lock a transfer with a password or restrict access to specific email addresses, both available on a free account, so proprietary source code or unreleased builds reach only the people they should. When projects call for longer availability, recovery of past transfers, or custom branding on your delivery page, WeTransfer Ultimate covers those needs.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
WeTransfer does not restrict which file types you can upload, so source code files, ZIP archives of entire project directories, configuration files, build artifacts, compiled binaries, shell scripts, and design assets like Figma exports or SVGs all transfer without issue. Folder uploads are supported too, so you can send a project with its original folder structure intact and recipients will download it exactly that way. Your files arrive at the other end unmodified, byte for byte.
Yes. WeTransfer supports folder uploads, preserving the original directory structure so the recipient gets everything organized exactly as you sent it. If you prefer to bundle things up first, you can also upload a ZIP archive and it will transfer as-is, no additional compression applied. Recipients can download the whole thing in one click or, if previewing is relevant, browse supported file types in the browser first.
Two access control options are available on free accounts. You can add a password to any transfer before sending, which means only someone who knows that password can download the files. Alternatively, you can restrict access to one or more specific email addresses, so even if the link is forwarded it will not open for anyone not on your list. Neither option requires the recipient to have a WeTransfer account.
On a free account you can send up to 3 GB per transfer and up to 10 transfers within a rolling 30-day window, with download links active for up to 3 days. For most one-off handoffs that is plenty. If you regularly need to deliver large build outputs, keep links available past three days, recover transfers after expiry, or send code under your own branding and custom domain, WeTransfer Ultimate removes the transfer size cap, lets you set custom or indefinite expiry, and adds expired transfer recovery.
No. Recipients can open the download link and grab the files without creating an account or logging in anywhere. They just click the link, accept the standard terms, and download. You do need a free WeTransfer account to send transfers, but that takes less than a minute to set up from any browser.
