Send videos online for free
WeTransfer lets you move video files from your browser to anyone's inbox or device, no payment required. Create a free account, upload your footage, and share it via a download link or send it straight to someone's email. Whoever receives it can watch and download without ever making an account.
The simplest, free way to share
Sending video files is where WeTransfer earns its keep — footage arrives exactly as you shot it, with no re-encoding, no resolution loss, and no compression artifacts, whether you're sharing 4K clips, MOV files, or anything in between. Every transfer generates a unique download link you can drop into a chat, a DM, or an email, and there's no cap on how many people can open it. Recipients can preview video directly in the browser before downloading, so they can confirm it's the right cut without pulling down the whole file. If a clip contains anything you'd rather keep private, password protection is available on every plan and takes seconds to set up. When you need footage to stay available past the default window, or want to deliver under your own brand, upgrading to Ultimate gives you the flexibility to match how you actually work.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
WeTransfer works with any file type, so you can send MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, and whatever else comes out of your camera or editing suite without converting anything first. Files land with the recipient exactly as you uploaded them, original codec and all. The browser preview supports MP4 and MOV files up to 300 MB, so recipients can watch those in-browser before deciding to download.
No. WeTransfer does not re-encode, compress, or alter your files in any way during transfer. A 4K video you upload is the exact same 4K video your recipient downloads, frame for frame. The only packaging that happens is a zip wrapper when you send multiple files, which is lossless and does not touch the video data itself.
Yes, recipients can preview MP4 and MOV files directly in the browser without downloading anything first. They can also leave comments on individual files and mark favorites, which is handy when you're sharing a rough cut and want feedback before anyone commits to a full download. Preview is available on web, iOS, and Android.
Sending requires a free WeTransfer account, which takes a moment to set up and costs nothing. Your recipient needs no account at all — they just open the link or click the button in the notification email and the download starts. There's nothing to install on either end, everything runs in the browser.
The free plan covers up to 3 GB per transfer and up to 10 transfers per rolling 30-day window, with download links that stay active for up to 3 days. That works well for sharing individual clips or short projects. If you regularly send large video projects, need transfers that stay live for longer, or want to deliver footage under your own branding with a custom page, WeTransfer Ultimate removes the transfer size cap, lets you set any expiry you like including never, and adds per-transfer branding options.
