Share photos safely across your whole workspace

Photo assets circulate constantly inside creative teams, and every handoff is a chance for the wrong person to gain access. WeTransfer wraps each transfer in end-to-end encryption, lets you lock down who can open what, and gives workspace admins the oversight to keep the whole team's activity in check.

A secure space for your team

When photos carry client work, campaign assets, or unreleased creative, getting them to the right people without exposure to the wrong ones matters. WeTransfer encrypts every file in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256, stores everything on EU servers in Ireland, holds ISO 27001 certification, and is fully GDPR-compliant, with Data Processing Agreements available on business plans. Before anyone downloads, recipients can preview JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, HEIC, PSD, and a wide range of RAW formats directly in the browser, so they can confirm they have the right shots and download only what they need. Each photo transfer can be password-protected, limited to a verified list of email addresses, or set to log every download with a timestamp, giving you a clear record of who accessed which files and when. Teams with heavier governance requirements can add SSO, SCIM provisioning, custom storage, usage logs, and advanced access management at the Enterprise tier.

FAQs

All your questions answered.


Yes. Recipients can open previews of JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, HEIC, PSD, and most RAW formats including ARW, NEF, CR2, DNG, and others directly in their browser, with no download required. The preview renders at a slightly lower resolution than the original, so the full-quality file is only transferred when someone deliberately downloads it. Viewers can also favorite individual photos and leave comments on specific files, which makes review rounds inside a team much faster.


When setting up a transfer, you can restrict access so that only specific email addresses on your list can open it. Anyone who tries to access the link is asked to verify their email, and if their address isn't on your list they're blocked. You can also add a password as an additional layer, which recipients need before they can view or download anything. Both options are available on all plans and can be adjusted after sending from the transfer details page.


No. WeTransfer sends your photos in their original quality with no re-encoding, no resolution changes, and no color profile alterations. When you upload multiple files they're packaged into a zip using lossless compression for the download, but the files themselves are untouched. What you send is exactly what the recipient gets.


Yes. You can enable download tracking before or after sending a transfer. For email transfers, a checkmark appears next to each recipient's address once they download, and hovering shows the exact date and time. If you use the Restricted access option, you get a detailed notification each time someone on your access list downloads, including their email address and a timestamp. This gives you a reliable audit trail when photo assets are circulating across a team or going to external clients.


A Teams plan gives every member their own linked account under a shared workspace, with centralized billing, shared storage, and admin visibility over all transfers the team sends. Admins can see and manage every transfer, while members see only their own. For larger organizations, Enterprise adds SSO, SCIM provisioning, custom storage limits, custom transfer rules, usage logs, and advanced access management, which is useful when photo assets are moving across departments or external agencies that need stricter governance controls.
