6 Reasons to Switch from WeTransfer

Transferly was built specifically to fix what's broken about free file transfer.

Your files stay yours

Transferly will never read your files, sell your data, or train AI on your content. We put this in writing — not buried in a ToS.

True P2P — no server storage

Our Quick Transfer (P2P) mode sends files directly between devices via WebRTC. No file ever touches our servers. No size limit.

Zero ads, zero trackers

WeTransfer's free plan is funded by ads. Transferly has no ads, no ad network trackers, and no data sold to third parties.

Password protection — free

Protect sensitive files with a password on every transfer, completely free. WeTransfer locks this behind a paid plan.

Independent & transparent

Transferly is an indie product built without VC funding or shareholders to appease. The incentives are aligned with users, not investors.

Longer storage with account

Create a free account to extend file availability to 15 days (vs 7 days on both free plans). No credit card needed.

WeTransfer doesn't have this

True P2P Transfer — No File Size Limit

Transferly's Quick Transfer uses WebRTC peer-to-peer technology to send files directly between devices — nothing stored on servers, no file size limit, no waiting. This is something WeTransfer doesn't offer at any price.

WeTransfer Alternative — Frequently Asked Questions

Is Transferly completely free like WeTransfer's free plan?

Yes — and more so. Transferly's free plan has no ads, no storage limits on P2P, and no AI training on your files. WeTransfer's free plan is ad-supported and their ToS allows using your content.

Can I send files larger than 2GB?

Yes! Use Transferly's P2P (Quick Transfer) mode for files of any size. The P2P mode sends files directly between devices without storing them on a server — no size limit applies.

Is Transferly safe to use for confidential files?

Yes. Files are encrypted in transit. For extra security, add a password to your transfer. And unlike WeTransfer, Transferly never reads or analyzes your files for any purpose.

Does Transferly work in India?

Absolutely — Transferly was built with Indian users in mind. It's fast, free, and requires no VPN or workarounds. Transfer speeds are optimized for Indian internet connections.

How is Transferly different from Google Drive or Dropbox?

Unlike Google Drive or Dropbox, Transferly is purpose-built for one-time file sharing without long-term storage. No account needed, files auto-delete after 7 days (or 15 with an account), and P2P transfers never touch a server.

Ready to make the switch?

No sign-up. No ads. No AI training on your files. Just send.
