ZIP files, sent whole and hassle-free
Email was never built for large ZIP archives. Whether you're bundling raw footage, source code, client deliverables, or a full project backup, WeTransfer sends your ZIP straight from the browser with no size fussing and no compression on top of compression. Free accounts support files up to 3 GB, and Ultimate removes the size limit entirely.
No file is too big
ZIP files are already doing the heavy lifting of keeping your files organized and bundled together — the last thing you need is a file transfer tool that unpacks that work or adds another layer of friction. WeTransfer sends your archive exactly as it is, straight from your browser, with no software to install and no account required on the recipient's end. Every transfer gets a unique download link you can drop into a chat, email, or message — and if you want tighter control over who can access it, you can restrict it to specific email addresses or add a password. For anything larger than 3 GB, upgrading to Ultimate removes the transfer size cap altogether and lets you set custom expiry so your link stays live for as long as the project needs it.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Free accounts support transfers up to 3 GB, which covers most ZIP archives for everyday use. If your archive is larger than that, upgrading to Ultimate removes the size limit entirely so you can send without worrying about hitting a ceiling.
No. WeTransfer sends your ZIP file exactly as you uploaded it, with no re-encoding, no additional compression, and nothing changed. Your recipient downloads the same archive you put in.
On a free account, transfers expire after a maximum of 3 days. If you need your ZIP to stay available longer, upgrading to Ultimate lets you set a custom expiry date or keep the transfer live indefinitely until you choose to delete it.
Yes. You can share the download link with as many people as you like since link transfers have no recipient limit. If you prefer email delivery instead, free accounts can send to up to 10 recipients and paid plans support up to 50.
Yes, in a couple of ways. You can add a password to the transfer so only people who know it can download the file. You can also restrict access to specific email addresses, meaning only those recipients can open the link even if it ends up shared elsewhere.
