Request once, receive from anyone

Getting video footage from multiple people usually turns into a mess of download links, cloud folder invites, and follow-up messages. WeTransfer upload requests cut through all of that. You create one link, share it wherever it makes sense, and footage comes directly to you. Everything arrives in its original quality, whether that's 4K rushes, drone clips, or screen recordings, with no re-encoding or compression along the way. You can preview video files right in your browser before downloading, so you can get a feel for what you have before pulling anything to your machine. Both you and the people sending footage need a free WeTransfer account, and the whole setup takes just a few minutes.

FAQs

All your questions answered.


Log into your WeTransfer account and create an upload request to get a shareable link. You can send that link to anyone, drop it into a production brief, or post it wherever your contributors will see it. Anyone with the link can upload their footage directly to your workspace, and you'll get an email notification each time something arrives.


WeTransfer works with any file type, so contributors can send you whatever format they're shooting in. That includes MP4, MOV, MXF, AVI, ProRes, and more. Files arrive exactly as they were exported, with no conversion, no compression, and no quality loss, even for high-resolution or 4K footage.


On a free account, individual uploads are limited to 3 GB. If you're collecting large raw video files or high-resolution footage, upgrading to Ultimate removes the transfer size limit entirely, so contributors can send you as much footage as they need to without hitting a wall.


Yes. WeTransfer lets you preview video files directly in your browser, so you can watch clips before deciding what to download. Reviewers can also leave comments on individual files and mark favorites, which is handy when you're sorting through a lot of footage from different contributors.


Yes, anyone uploading footage through your request link will need a free WeTransfer account to do so. It only takes a couple of minutes to sign up, and there's no cost involved. On your end, you'll also need an account to create the request in the first place.
