WeTransfer questions

Can you send with WeTransfer without an account?

No. Since November 2024 everyone who sends with WeTransfer needs an account; if you are not logged in, it emails you a code and creates a free account when you verify. If you want to send without signing up, Yungle sends up to 10 GB with no account at all.

Why does WeTransfer need an account now?

Its help centre says an account is required for everyone sending since November 2024, created by verifying your email if you do not have one.

Does the recipient need an account?

Not on Yungle: recipients download in any browser without signing up.

Is sending without an account safe?

On Yungle every file is always encrypted and stored in Germany. Add a password to the link if it should not be opened by anyone it is forwarded to.
