Sign in to your WeTransfer account, click Request Files on the homepage, give your request a title such as the module name or event, and optionally add instructions for submitters. WeTransfer generates a unique upload link you can paste anywhere, from a virtual learning environment to a speaker confirmation email. You will receive an email notification each time a presentation is uploaded, and all submissions appear in the Received section of your account.

No paid account is required. Anyone uploading a presentation through your request link needs only a free WeTransfer account, which takes a minute to create. As the person collecting submissions, you also need a free account at minimum, though upgrading to Ultimate gives you additional tools like custom expiry and per-transfer branding that can be useful for larger educational programmes.

WeTransfer accepts any file type, so submitters can send PowerPoint files, Keynote presentations, Google Slides exports, PDFs, and even video-based presentations or ZIP archives containing supporting assets. Files are transferred without any compression or alteration, meaning slide decks with embedded media, custom fonts, and high-resolution graphics arrive exactly as built.

Yes. When creating your upload request you can include instructions, such as file naming conventions, required slide count, accepted formats, or a submission deadline. Those instructions are visible to contributors when they open the upload link, reducing the back-and-forth that typically comes with open-ended submission calls in educational settings.

A single upload request link can be shared with as many people as you need, whether that is a seminar group of ten or a conference track with dozens of speakers. Each submitter uploads independently, and you receive a separate email notification for each presentation that arrives. All submissions are collected in one place in your account, so reviewing and downloading the full set is straightforward.
