Free file transfer

The free WeTransfer alternative

Need to send a big file without the upload wait, the ads, or an account? BIShare is a free WeTransfer alternative: share large files with a link the other person opens in any browser — no sign-up, nothing to install. And when you're in the same room, it does what WeTransfer can't: send device to device, instantly, with no upload at all. End-to-end encrypted, always free.

Why not just use WeTransfer?

WeTransfer works, but the free tier typically caps you around 2 GB, wraps downloads in ads, and keeps nudging you toward a paid plan. And every file routes through their servers — it sits in the cloud whether you like it or not. BIShare gives you a free 100 GB link with no ads and no account, and adds something WeTransfer simply doesn't have: instant nearby transfer that never uploads your file anywhere.

How BIShare sends your files

  • In the same room

    Skip the upload entirely. BIShare beams the file straight from your device to theirs, end-to-end encrypted — nothing touches a server. It's quick, and it even works over a phone hotspot with no internet at all.

  • Sending across town

    You get a share link, a QR code, and a 6-character code. The recipient opens the link in any browser and downloads — no app, no account, no ads. The link self-destructs after 24 hours.

  • On any platform

    iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, and Linux — one app, every direction. Send from your phone to a colleague's laptop, or from your PC to anyone with a browser.

WeTransfer alternative: FAQ

What's the best free WeTransfer alternative?

BIShare. It sends large files through a browser link like WeTransfer, but with no ads, no account, and a bigger free limit — plus it can transfer files directly between nearby devices, which WeTransfer can't do at all.

Is there a WeTransfer alternative with no sign-up?

Yes. BIShare needs no account to send or receive. You share a link, QR code, or 6-character code, and the other person just opens it in their browser and downloads — no registration on either side.

How big a file can I send for free?

Share links carry files up to 100 GB free — far beyond WeTransfer's free tier. And for nearby device-to-device transfers over your own Wi-Fi, there's no size cap at all, because the file is never uploaded to a server.

Is BIShare more private than WeTransfer?

Yes. Nearby transfers are end-to-end encrypted and go straight between devices, so nothing is stored in the cloud. Share links are encrypted in transit and auto-expire after 24 hours, instead of lingering on a server.

Does the recipient need to install an app?

No. For a share link, they just open it in any browser — phone or computer — and download. Installing BIShare unlocks faster nearby transfers and every feature, but it's never required to receive a file.
