Censor and sell a WeTransfer in 2026

Censor and sell a WeTransfer in 2026 when a send is about to give the work away. WeTransfer moves a package to whoever has the link. It does not keep a blurred still, a short clip, or a card form on that same URL. If they should look, pay, and then download, the transfer is the wrong room.

Spike can pull a public transfer in as one zip, then treat the folder you sell. Blur, a watermark, a censored PDF, a short video. Checkout unlocks the copy you stored. Keep WeTransfer for a draft that should die. Do not keep it as the till.

A transfer is not a censored sale

The person who opens a live WeTransfer gets the files. That is the product working. It is a poor shop. You cannot show a soft proof and withhold the ZIP until the card clears, because the link is the ZIP. People then add a PayPal note in the email and hope. Two rooms. One leak.

• Public and still online: Spike can copy it in as a zip.
• Password on the transfer: Spike will not open it.
• Expired or deleted: nothing to import. Upload from your disk.
• After the copy lands, stop sending the we.tl link.

Censor the copy, not the transfer

The zip is in your folder. Open it or leave it as the pack, then set the unpaid view. Stills: blur from 4 to 48 pixels. A watermark label up to 48 characters. Video: 1 to 30 seconds, and not longer than the clip. PDF: page one, or 10% to 90% visible. Censor a PDF and a video. The bytes you imported stay the original. The treatment is the preview.

Put the price on your URL

Turn on Sell This Folder. Entire folder, or individual files if they should tick. GBP, minimum £1. Finish Stripe Connect. The selling fee is 5% on Free and 1% on Pro and Business, from the payout, plus Stripe's card fee. Charge for a download link. Send spike.zip/f/… in the email where the WeTransfer used to sit.

From a transfer to a sale

1. 01

   Copy a public WeTransfer link

   we.tl or wetransfer.com. If it asks for a password, upload the files yourself instead.

2. 02

   Paste it into Import from WeTransfer

   The transfer arrives as one zip. It counts against your storage. Free is 2 GB. Pro is 500 GB. Business goes up to 10 TB.

3. 03

   Treat the unpaid view

   Blur, watermark, a short clip, or a PDF sample. Open the link and check that looking is not taking.

4. 04

   Price the folder and retire the transfer link

   One URL. If you leave the WeTransfer in the same email, they can skip the till.

When a WeTransfer is still the right send

• They should have the files tonight, and you do not need to charge on that URL.
• The transfer should disappear. You do not want a standing page.
• The link is passworded. Spike will not import that. Send it as WeTransfer meant.

Dual-run is fine. WeTransfer for a draft. A censored, priced folder for the version that is done. WeTransfer vs Spike is the pair. Import from WeTransfer, Google Drive, and Dropbox if the source link is Drive or Dropbox instead.

A transfer delivers. A folder can charge.

Censor and sell a WeTransfer in 2026 by copying a public transfer into Spike, hiding enough of the unpaid view, and sending your link instead of theirs. What Spike is is that till. WeTransfer can stay the pipe for drafts. If the source is a Dropbox file instead, sell a Dropbox file.
