Pandafile · 5 GB free every week
Send a whole folder and keep its structure
Got a project spread across lots of folders? With Pandafile you can upload a whole folder at once, and the subfolders stay exactly as you organised them. There's no need to zip it first. Share a link or send by email, and your recipient gets everything in the right place. Send up to 5 GB free, without creating an account.
No need to zip it first
Normally, sending a folder means compressing it into a zip, waiting, then uploading one big file. With Pandafile you can skip that step. Drag a folder onto the page and it uploads with all of its subfolders and files in place. The structure is kept, so a project with separate folders for drafts, final files and assets arrives just as you set it up. That saves time for you and avoids confusion for whoever opens it at the other end.
Great for projects and teams
Folder transfers are handy for all sorts of jobs. Send a website build to a developer, a set of design files to a printer, course material to students, or a year of family photos sorted by month. Uploads are resumable, so if your connection drops partway through a large folder, it continues from where it stopped. When you send by email, each recipient gets their own link, and you're told when each person downloads. That makes it easy to see who in a team has the latest files.
Download the folder or just one file
Your recipient doesn't need an account. They open the link and can download the whole lot as one zip, with the folder structure intact, or pick out single files they need. Photos, videos and PDFs can be previewed in the browser before downloading. It works on any modern browser, whether they're at a desk or on a phone. If they forget, a daily reminder email nudges them until they download or the transfer expires.
Bigger folders with Pro
The free plan covers up to 5 GB in total per rolling seven days, and free transfers stay available for three days. For larger projects, Pandafile Pro lets you send up to 1 TB per transfer and keeps files for 30 days. Pro costs £12 a year, which works out at £1 a month. You also get no ads and the option to protect a transfer with a password. Pro comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
Questions
Can I send a folder without zipping it?

Will the folder structure stay the same?
Yes. Pandafile keeps your folders and subfolders exactly as they were. When your recipient downloads everything as one zip, the files are in the same folders you organised.
How big can the folder be?
On the free plan you can send up to 5 GB in total per rolling seven days. With Pandafile Pro you can send up to 1 TB per transfer, which suits large projects and archives.
Can the recipient download just one file from the folder?
Yes. Your recipient can pick out single files to download, or download everything at once as one zip. They can also preview photos, videos and PDFs in the browser first.
Can I send a folder from my phone?
Pandafile works in any modern browser, including on phones and tablets. Whether you can choose a whole folder depends on what your device's file picker allows, but you can always select many files at once.
