Video links for news and media that never expire
News and media teams share footage, rushes, and broadcast-ready video that colleagues and partners need to access on their own schedule. WeTransfer gives every transfer its own clean download link, and with Ultimate you choose whether that link stays open for a week, a year, or indefinitely.
Share files that never expire
Journalists, editors, and producers often need to circulate raw footage, finished packages, or archive video that people return to long after the original send date. WeTransfer transfers every video in its original quality, with no re-encoding and no resolution loss, so a 4K clip or broadcast master arrives exactly as you exported it. Every transfer generates a unique download link that anyone can open in a browser without creating an account, removing friction for freelancers, wire services, or broadcast partners who just need the file. You can preview video in-browser before downloading, which lets recipients check they have the right cut without pulling a large file first. Password protection and restricted access give your team control over who can open a transfer, keeping embargoed footage or unpublished material away from unintended audiences.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Yes. With a WeTransfer Ultimate plan, you can set a custom expiry on any transfer or remove the expiry entirely so the link stays active until you decide to take it down. That makes it practical for archive footage, reference clips, or evergreen broadcast assets that colleagues and partners may need weeks or months after you first sent them.
No. WeTransfer sends every file in its original format with no re-encoding, no resolution loss, and no quality reduction. A 4K master, a ProRes export, or a raw camera file arrives at the other end exactly as you uploaded it, which matters when broadcast specifications leave no room for compression artefacts.
Yes. Recipients can preview MP4 and MOV files directly in their browser before downloading, so an editor or producer can verify they have the right cut, the correct version, or the expected resolution without pulling a large file first. Previews display at a slightly lower resolution than the original, and the full-quality file is always available to download.
You can add a password to any transfer so only recipients who know it can open the link, or you can use restricted access to limit downloads to a specific list of email addresses. Both options can be configured before you send and adjusted afterwards from your Transfers panel, giving editorial teams a straightforward way to manage who sees footage before a story goes live.
Yes. WeTransfer includes download tracking on all plans. For email transfers, you can see a checkmark against each recipient once they download, with the exact date and time. You can also enable tracked downloads so anyone who opens a link verifies their email first, giving you a clear record of who accessed the footage and when.
