A share link thatdoesn't expire in a week
For files you share more than once, WeTransfer's week-long expiry works against you — Link in Seconds gives you a clean link that never expires, previews in the browser, and shows its views.

Switch from a WeTransfer link to a permanent one
- 1
Upload the file you keep re-sending
Drop your PDF, image, MP4, or ZIP onto the card. No account is needed to make your first link (PDF, image, or video up to 10 MB), so you can test it against a WeTransfer link side by side in under a minute.
- 2
Give it a name that isn't random characters
On Pro you can set a custom name (like acme-proposal) instead of a string of random letters. It reads like a page you meant to send, which matters when it lands in a client's inbox next to your name.
- 3
Share the link — and keep sharing it
Paste the same URL into your email signature, a pitch deck, a Notion page, or a printed QR code. Because it never expires, you never have to re-upload and re-send when someone opens it a month later.

Check who opened it, then swap the file if needed
The view counter shows opens over time. If the document changes — a revised quote, a new cut of the video — replace the file and keep the exact same link, so nobody ends up on a stale version.
Seven days vs. forever
This is the headline difference. A free WeTransfer link typically expires after about a week, and even paid plans put a clock on it. That's fine for a one-off handoff, but brutal for anything you reference repeatedly — a resume in your email signature, a media kit in your bio, a spec sheet in a proposal. On Link in Seconds every link is permanent by default on all plans. If you actually want a deadline, Pro lets you set your own expiry date deliberately — the opposite of having one forced on you. You choose when a link dies, instead of the clock deciding for you.
Preview in-browser, no download-wall
Open a WeTransfer link and you land on a branded download page — often behind a full-screen ad — where the recipient has to download the file before they can see anything. For a resume or a 90-second product clip, that friction costs you views. A Link in Seconds link opens the content directly: PDFs render in a clean canvas viewer, images display full-bleed, and MP4/WebM/MOV videos play right on the page with normal seeking. Your recipient sees the thing itself, not a landing page telling them to wait for a download. No ads, no upsell interstitial between them and your file.
View tracking, not a download ping
WeTransfer's free tier tells you little about what happened after you hit send. Link in Seconds gives every link a live view counter so you can see how many times it was actually opened over its whole life — useful when you've sent a proposal and want to know if the client looked before the follow-up call. On Pro, analytics break down by device and country, so you learn whether that portfolio link got opened on mobile in one city or forwarded around a team. It's not surveillance — no per-opener email receipts — just an honest signal of interest on a link that keeps living.
Frequently
asked
questions
Expiry. WeTransfer links typically die after about a week, while Link in Seconds links never expire on any plan. Share the same file more than once and a permanent link means you paste it once and it keeps working.
No. For a single huge one-off transfer, like emailing gigabytes of raw footage once, WeTransfer's free tier sends far more. Link in Seconds fits files you reuse at modest sizes behind a clean, permanent, trackable link.
No. Unlike WeTransfer's download page, a Link in Seconds link previews content directly in the browser — PDFs, images, and videos open right on the page. There's no ad interstitial and no forced download first.
Up to 10 MB with no account, 100 MB signed in free, and 200 MB per file on Pro. That's smaller than WeTransfer's free ceiling on purpose — we optimize for reusable, previewable files, not giant disposable transfers.
Yes. Every link has a live view counter showing total opens, handy for gauging interest before a follow-up. Pro adds device and country breakdowns. There are no per-opener receipts; it's an aggregate signal, not tracking of specific people.
