Send big files like WeTransfer, without signing up

WeTransfer now asks you to create an account, caps free users at 10 transfers a month, and shows full-page ads. ShareIt.onl skips all of that: drop in your files, get a link, done.

Up to 100 files · 3 GB per share
20 GB of storage, kept for as long as you want it - your files stay after the link expires

    WeTransfer earned its name by being simple, but its free tier has tightened. You now need an account to send anything, free transfers cap at 3 GB inside an allowance WeTransfer describes as "up to 10 transfers or 3 GB in any 30-day period", links die after 3 days, and full-page ads play while you upload. If that friction sent you looking for sites like WeTransfer, here is the short version: ShareIt.onl does the same job with none of those hoops.

    There is no account to create. Open the page, drop in up to 100 files (3 GB total), and share the link. Links last 1 hour to 7 days on your schedule (30 days signed in), every download keeps a link alive another 24 hours, and passwords, QR codes, previews, and one-time links are all free. There are no ads anywhere, and the person downloading never needs an account either.

    Key points
    • Up to 3 GB per share, free, with no sign-up needed
    • Links last up to 7 days free (30 days signed in), not just 3
    • No transfer-count limit and no ads, ever
    • Password protection and QR codes included free

    Why people switch from WeTransfer

    The story is usually the same: someone went to send one file and hit a wall - A login screen, the monthly transfer counter, or a link that expired before the client got around to opening it. A transfer tool should not need a relationship with you. Here the free tier is the whole product: 3 GB per share with no account, no limit on how often you send, and an expiry you pick instead of a fixed 3 days. Sign in free and you get 20 GB of permanent storage, expandable with rewards, and 100 GB of downloads a month to play with.

    How to send files without WeTransfer

    1. Open ShareIt.onl and drag in your files - Up to 100 files and 3 GB free, no account needed.
    2. Pick an expiry from 1 hour to 7 days. Sign in free with Google if you want a 30-day link.
    3. Add a password or a one-time link if the files are private - Both are free.
    4. Copy the short link or show the QR code, and send it any way you like.
    5. That is it. The public link disables itself when it expires, your files remain private in My Files, and every download adds another 24 hours of link life.

    When to use it

    Client deliveries

    Send finished work without making the client sit through a full-page ad before the download button appears.

    Past the monthly cap

    WeTransfer free meters you against "up to 10 transfers or 3 GB in any 30-day period". Nothing here counts how often you send, and a free account carries 20 GB of storage - kept until you delete it - with 100 GB of downloads a month.

    Slow recipients

    Give people up to 7 days free (30 signed in) instead of a fixed 3, and let each download extend the link another 24 hours.

    Shared or work computers

    Send from a library PC or locked-down office machine without logging in to anything.

    In-person handoffs

    Show the QR code and let the other person scan it with their camera - No typing, no app, no account.

    Free WeTransfer Alternative - FAQ

    Is ShareIt.onl really free?
    Yes. Up to 100 files and 3 GB per share costs nothing and needs no account. A free Google sign-in unlocks a 30-day link option, upload-inbox links, and a dashboard for tracking your shares - Still at no cost.
    What is the best free alternative to WeTransfer?
    It depends on what pushed you away. If it was the account, the ads, or the 10-transfer monthly cap, ShareIt.onl removes all three. If you need single transfers far beyond 3 GB, a heavyweight tool like SwissTransfer (50 GB per send) is the better fit.
    Do my recipients need an account?
    No. They click the link, preview the files in the browser, and download. On multi-file shares up to 512 MB they can grab everything as one ZIP. Nobody on either end has to register.
    How long do the links last?
    You choose: 1 hour, 12 hours, 24 hours, 3 days, or 7 days - Or 30 days with a free sign-in. Every download also keeps the link alive another 24 hours, so an active handoff never dies mid-use.
    How is this different from WeTransfer's free plan?
    WeTransfer free requires an account, meters you against "up to 10 transfers or 3 GB in any 30-day period", fixes links at 3 days, and shows ads. Here there is no account, nothing counting how often you send, an expiry you pick, and no ads - Plus 20 GB of permanent storage and 100 GB of downloads a month once you sign in free.
