A WeTransfer alternative that delivers the work, not just the file.
WeTransfer moves files. A delivery is something else: a branded page that stays up, the original to download, and the project still in your library next year.

The problem
A download link is not a delivery. It just moves the file.
A transfer does one thing: a file leaves your computer and lands on someone else’s. The recipient sees a list of filenames, downloads them, and on the free and entry plans the link disappears a few days later.
For a raw card on its way to an editor, that is the right tool. For finished work going to the person who paid for it, the first impression is a progress bar, and a client who opens the email late finds nothing there.
FRGMT turns the same files into a delivery. A Gallery for the photos and video delivery for clients on a Cinema page, both carrying your studio logo, with the originals to download and no timer counting down.
The transfer side is still there. Share a folder as a download page, or send an upload link to collect files back, from the same library the deliveries are built from.
Where each one wins
Pick by the job, not the logo.
WeTransfer wins for a one-off file.
- Nothing to learn.Drop a file, add an email address, send.
- A low entry price.For moving files and nothing else, its paid plans cost less than a delivery platform.
- Familiar to everyone.Recipients know what the email is before they open it.
- A branded page on its paid plans.The transfer page can carry your own background.
FRGMT wins when the file is finished work.
- A delivery, not a file list.Galleries and video pages carrying your logo.
- No three-day timer.Deliveries stay up for as long as you keep them.
- Review before it ships.Timecoded notes and per-image comments, on every plan.
- The project stays.Folders, tags and archive, so next year’s request is one link.

A transfer plus a gallery tool
Two logins and two links, against one plan that sends and presents.

Questions
WeTransfer, answered.
Is WeTransfer free?
WeTransfer has a free plan that sends 10 transfers per 30 days with 3 GB per 30 days in total, on links that expire after 3 days, and WeTransfer designates it for personal, non-commercial use rather than for delivering finished work to the client who paid for it. Paid plans start with Starter at $7 a month billed annually.
How long do WeTransfer links last?
On WeTransfer's Free and Starter plans a transfer can be downloaded for 3 days before it is removed, so a client who opens the email late finds nothing there, while its higher paid plans let you set a custom expiry for the transfers that need to last longer. FRGMT deliveries stay live for as long as you keep them.
What is the WeTransfer file size limit?
WeTransfer's free plan allows 3 GB per 30 days across 10 transfers per 30 days, and Starter raises the total to 300 GB while keeping the same limit of ten transfers, with its higher paid plans raising both limits again for studios that move large video masters every week. FRGMT accepts files up to 100 GB each, and an interrupted upload resumes.
Does WeTransfer compress files?
No: WeTransfer sends files in their original quality without compressing or re-encoding them, which makes it a reliable way to move a master from one computer to another, though the person receiving it gets a list of filenames to download rather than a presentation of the finished work. FRGMT keeps originals untouched and presents them as a gallery or video page.
What is a WeTransfer alternative for photographers and videographers?
Look for a tool that delivers rather than transfers: a branded gallery or video page that does not expire on a timer, the original files to download, and a library that keeps the project afterwards, with shared folders and upload links included for the jobs that really are only files. FRGMT does all of that from one plan.
