Do I need an account to use Pandafile?
No. You can upload files and get a link without an account. To send by email you confirm your address with a 6-digit code, and signing in is optional and passwordless.
Pandafile is built so you can send a file without signing up for anything. Here is exactly when you need to give us your email, and why.
No account needed
- Uploading files and getting a link to share
- Downloading files someone sent you
- Using your free 10 GB a week
When we ask for your email
If you choose Send by email, we need to know the message really comes from you, so nobody can use Pandafile to send spam in someone else's name. We email you a 6-digit code, you type it in, and that's it. If you are already signed in, you skip this.
Why sign in at all?
Signing in is optional, but it gives you a Dashboard where you can:
- See the transfers you have sent
- Delete a transfer early, so the link stops working
- Upgrade to Plus or Pro, and manage or cancel your subscription
- Send by email without confirming a code each time
Plus and Pro need an account, because your subscription has to be linked to someone.
How sign-in works: no passwords
- Click Sign in and enter your email address.
- Check your inbox for an email from Pandafile.
- Either type the 6-digit code into the boxes, or tap the magic link in the email.
- You are signed in.
We never ask you to create a password, and we don't store one. That means there is no password to forget, reuse or leak. Your inbox is your key, so keep your email account secure.
