Why are there ads on Pandafile, and how can I remove them?
Ads pay for the free plan. They appear in labelled spaces on the upload and download pages and have nothing to do with your files. Plus and Pro remove all ads, for you and for your recipients.
Storing and moving gigabytes of files costs real money: servers, storage and bandwidth. On the free plan, ads cover that cost so you don't have to pay. We try to keep them tidy and out of your way.
Where you will see ads
- On the upload page, next to or below the upload card, depending on your screen size
- On the download page your recipients open
- Each ad space is labelled Advertisement, so it is always clear what is an ad and what is Pandafile
What ads never do
- Ads have nothing to do with your files. Your files stay on our servers in the EU, behind long random links.
- We don't look at your files to choose ads, and we don't sell your personal data.
- An ad is never a download button. The real download buttons are on the Pandafile card itself.
How to remove ads
Pandafile Plus and Pro remove ads completely. That includes your recipients: when you send with Plus or Pro, the people downloading your files don't see ads either. That is handy when you send work to clients.
Plus is £2.99 a month or £24.99 a year, and Pro is £5.99 a month or £49.99 a year. You also get bigger transfers (up to 250 GB on Plus, 1 TB on Pro), longer storage (14 or 30 days) and password protection. Plans renew automatically and you can cancel any time in your Dashboard.
Can I use an ad blocker?
We can't stop you, and Pandafile should still work. But ads are how the free plan keeps going, so if you find Pandafile useful, please consider leaving them on or going Plus.
