MyAirBridge vs TransferNow
TransferNow and MyAirBridge both deliver large files through download links. MyAirBridge sends up to 20 GB free per transfer and adds persistent storage, shared folders, and team access, while TransferNow concentrates on the transfer workflow itself.
Quick answer
For a straightforward one-off delivery, both services do the same job from the recipient's point of view: a link, a download, no account needed.
The difference appears when the same files have to be delivered repeatedly, kept available, or handled by more than one person.
Free transfers
MyAirBridge allows 20 GB per transfer on the free tier, with unlimited downloads and no registration for recipients. Free transfers expire after three days.
TransferNow also offers a free tier with a lower per-transfer ceiling and paid plans for larger volumes.
