5 GB free
The free tier that’s often enough
5 GB per transfer with no sign-up, password protection and download tracking included — for many independents, that’s already the complete tool.
File transfer designed for freelancers
When you work solo, every detail counts double: the delivery is part of the service. TransferNow gives you agency-grade tooling — 5 GB free, delivery under your name, download tracking — without the agency bill.

Your day-to-day
What gets in the way today
The personal drive link that looks amateur
A Google Drive permission request in the middle of a client delivery, and the professionalism built over the whole project starts to crumble.
Following up to know if it arrived
“Did you get my link?” — the awkward follow-up that adds nothing to the client relationship.
Paying a subscription for three transfers
Needs vary from month to month: a tool that only makes sense as an annual subscription doesn’t fit the freelance rhythm.
With TransferNow
Your workflow, in three steps
- 1
Deliver your work
Drag in the deliverable (up to 5 GB for free), send it by email with your message, or share the link — original quality guaranteed.
- 2
Receive client materials
Your permanent drop link in your email signature: clients upload briefs and content without an account, and you’re notified.
- 3
Track without following up
A notification at every download: you know the client has picked up the deliverable — the follow-up becomes unnecessary.
Built for you
Freelancers: the features that matter

Delivery under your name
With a plan: logo, custom backgrounds, and a your-name.transfernow.net subdomain — the studio touch, without the studio budget.
Drop link
In your email signature
Your permanent drop link: clients can send you their files at any time, with no questions and no account.
Notifications
No more awkward follow-ups

Mobile apps
Deliver from anywhere
Android and iOS apps to send from your phone, desktop apps for the heavy files — your office follows you around.

Frequently asked questions
Is TransferNow really usable for free as a freelancer?
Yes: 5 GB per transfer, no sign-up, with password protection and download notifications included. Paid plans add branding, higher limits, and long retention.
How do I make my deliveries look more professional?
Customize the delivery: logo, background image, and a your-name.transfernow.net subdomain — the client downloads in an environment that reflects your image, not a generic tool.
How do I know my client picked up the deliverable?
A notification at every download, per recipient: the invoice can go out at the right moment, with no follow-up.
How do I collect my clients’ materials, simply?
Put your permanent drop link in your email signature: the client uploads their files in their browser, with nothing to install, and a notification goes out at every upload.
What if a project exceeds 5 GB?
Plans go up to 500 GB per transfer — and the free trial lets you test before committing, for the length of a big project.
