WeTransfer is convenient, but convenience has trade-offs. Here are the three most common reasons people move to GoodSend.
WeTransfer links can be forwarded and downloaded by anyone who has the URL. That is fine for casual sharing, but risky for contracts, financials, or client data. GoodSend links deactivate after one download, so forwarded links are useless.
WeTransfer Pro costs $12/month whether you send one file or fifty. Most people do not send files often enough to justify a monthly subscription. GoodSend charges $1.50 per send, so you only pay when you actually use it.
WeTransfer Free gives you no visibility into whether files were downloaded. WeTransfer Pro adds tracking, but you still pay monthly for it. GoodSend includes download notifications and tracking on every single transfer.
Three steps. Under 60 seconds. Your files stay encrypted the entire way.
Drag and drop up to 20 files. Individual files up to 1GB, totalling 10GB per send. All file types supported.
Add your recipient's email address. GoodSend generates a unique, encrypted one-time download link and sends it directly to them.
Your recipient clicks the link and downloads the files. The link permanently deactivates. You get a notification confirming delivery.
WeTransfer Pro costs $12/month. That is $144/year regardless of how many files you send.

The break-even point
At $1.50 per send, you would need to send roughly 8 files per month to match WeTransfer Pro's $12/month. If you send fewer than 8 per month, GoodSend saves you money. If you send once or twice a month, GoodSend is dramatically cheaper.
Prices in USD. Credits never expire. Payments via Stripe.
Yes. GoodSend offers stronger security than WeTransfer with 256-bit encryption, one-time download links that deactivate after a single use, and delivery confirmation on every transfer. Unlike WeTransfer, GoodSend uses pay-per-send pricing with no monthly subscription. If you need secure file transfer without being locked into a subscription, GoodSend is a strong WeTransfer alternative.
WeTransfer Free is free but limited to 2GB and basic features. WeTransfer Pro costs $12 per month ($144 per year). GoodSend costs $1.50 per send with no subscription. If you send fewer than 8 files per month, GoodSend is cheaper than WeTransfer Pro. Credits never expire, so you only pay when you actually send.
GoodSend supports individual files up to 1GB and batch transfers up to 10GB total per send. You can upload up to 20 files in a single transfer. WeTransfer Free limits you to 2GB per transfer, while WeTransfer Pro allows up to 200GB.
Yes. Every GoodSend download link works exactly once. After the recipient downloads the files, the link is permanently deactivated. This is a key security advantage over WeTransfer, where links can be used by anyone who has the URL, multiple times, until they expire.
No. Recipients receive an email with a secure download link, click it, and download the files directly in their browser. No sign-up, no app to install, and no GoodSend account needed. This works the same way as WeTransfer.
