Free online file transfers for public sector teams
Government organisations and NGOs deal with reports, policy documents, data sets, and media files that are too large for email. WeTransfer lets you move them from any browser in seconds, without installing software. Colleagues, partners, or beneficiaries can download everything you send without creating an account.
The simplest, free way to share
Public sector and NGO work generates files that need to move quickly across organisations, borders, and networks: field reports, funding proposals, official correspondence, survey data, photo and video documentation, and more. WeTransfer sends all of them exactly as uploaded, with no compression or quality loss, so a high-resolution map or a dense PDF arrives in exactly the same condition it left your machine. Every transfer gets a unique download link you can share in an email thread, a messaging platform, or a project coordination tool, and there is no limit on how many people can open it. For sensitive materials, you can add a password or restrict access to a specific list of email addresses, both available at no cost. When your organisation needs deliveries to stay live for longer periods, wants branded communications, or requires a custom page for partners to submit files to you, WeTransfer Ultimate is the natural next step.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
WeTransfer handles any file type without modification: PDFs, Word documents, spreadsheets, scanned forms, high-resolution images, video footage, audio recordings, ZIP archives, and presentation files are all supported. There is no re-encoding or compression, so official documents and field media arrive exactly as they were uploaded. If your team works with GIS data, large datasets, or multi-file project bundles, you can upload entire folders and recipients will receive them with the original folder structure intact.
No account is needed on the receiving end. Anyone you send a transfer to can click the download link and access the files straight away, whether they are a government counterpart, a field partner, or a donor reviewing documentation. Sending transfers does require a free WeTransfer account, but creating one takes only a moment and is free.
Two access control options are available on all plans, including free. You can add a password to a transfer so only recipients who know it can download, and you can restrict access to a specific list of email addresses so the files open only for verified individuals. Download tracking is also available, letting you confirm exactly who retrieved a file and when, which is useful for compliance and accountability purposes.
Yes. Upload requests let you create a link that anyone can use to send files directly to you, with no email address exchange required. Share the link with field staff, volunteers, or partner organisations and they can upload documents, photos, or data straight to your account. You receive an email notification each time a new upload arrives, and all submitted files appear in your account for easy management.
The free plan covers up to 3 GB per transfer and 10 transfers per month, with links that stay active for up to 3 days, which suits many routine sharing needs. Ultimate is worth considering when your organisation needs transfers to stay accessible indefinitely, wants to recover a link that has already expired, needs to send files to more than 10 recipients by email, or wants to present a branded page and custom domain to donors, partners, or the public. Ultimate also includes malware scanning on every transfer and per-transfer branding, which can matter for organisations that handle sensitive data or communicate under an official identity.
