Secure client file transfers for consultants and auditors
Consulting and audit work involves documents that cannot end up in the wrong hands. When you share a WeTransfer link, you can lock it behind a password before it ever leaves your screen, so only the people you trust can open it. Password protection is built into every plan, requires no software on either end, and adds only a few seconds to your sending process.
Keep your files private
Client data, financial statements, audit reports, and engagement letters carry a level of confidentiality that demands more than a plain download link. WeTransfer lets you add a password directly inside the upload window, and that password is never included in the notification email sent to recipients, so you decide how to pass it along through your existing channels. Your files, whether PDFs, Excel workbooks, ZIP archives, or scanned documents, travel exactly as you uploaded them, with no compression or modification, so every figure and annotation arrives as intended. If a team member rotates off a project or a deadline shifts, you can update or remove the password on any active transfer from your Transfers panel without re-uploading anything. For situations where a password alone is not enough, you can pair it with restricted access, which limits downloads to a named list of email addresses even if the link ends up forwarded somewhere unexpected.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
When you upload files through WeTransfer, there is a password field in the transfer options panel. Set a password before clicking Transfer, and every recipient who opens your link is prompted to enter it before they can see or download anything. The password is never included in the notification email WeTransfer sends, so you share it through whatever channel already connects you to that person, whether a secure client portal, a phone call, or an encrypted message.
Yes. You can combine a password with restricted access, which lets you specify a list of email addresses that are permitted to download. Even if the link is forwarded outside your intended audience, anyone whose email is not on your list will be blocked from accessing the files. This combination gives consulting and audit professionals two layers of control over who reaches the documents.
No account is needed on the recipient side. Clients, external auditors, or regulators can open the link, enter the password, and download the files directly in their browser without signing up for anything. Only the person sending the transfer needs a WeTransfer account.
Yes. From your Transfers panel, you can add, change, or remove the password on any active transfer at any time, with no need to re-upload the files or send a new link. This is useful when a project team changes, an engagement concludes, or you simply want to close off access once a client has collected their documents.
WeTransfer handles any file type without modifying it, including PDFs, Excel and Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, CSV data exports, ZIP archives, and scanned image files. Files arrive at the recipient exactly as you uploaded them, with no compression or quality loss, so every table, footnote, and signature page comes through intact.
