Know Where You Stand With Pricing
Flat-rate plans make recurring file transfers easier to plan. Whether you have a quieter week or a busy one, your plan gives you a clear cost to work with.
A MASV Alternative for More Predictable Transfer Costs
Start with a free plan, then choose flat-rate pricing for regular file transfers. A straightforward way to keep your costs clear, consistent, and easy to plan as your workload grows.
LargeFileTransfer vs MASV
LargeFileTransfer combines a free plan with flat-rate paid plans, while MASV uses monthly transfer credit followed by usage-based pricing. The difference becomes clearer when you look at file size, storage, transfer allowances, and what happens after the included usage is used.

What Makes LargeFileTransfer a Better Fit?
For regular file transfers, a little extra flexibility can go a long way. LargeFileTransfer combines straightforward pricing, reliable uploads, and careful file handling to make sending large files feel pleasantly simple.
Keep Your Uploads Moving
With resumable uploads, an interrupted connection doesn’t mean starting over. Pick up where you left off and keep your large-file transfer moving toward its destination.
Keep Your Originals Intact
Your files are transferred without compression or re-encoding, so the format, resolution, and quality you upload remain unchanged throughout delivery.
Why Consider a MASV Alternative?
When large-file transfers become part of a regular workflow, pricing becomes part of the workflow too. Usage-based costs can make recurring transfers harder to plan, especially when the amount of data you send changes from month to month. MASV’s current pay-as-you-go terms charge for usage beyond its 15 GB monthly allowance.
LargeFileTransfer takes a simpler approach with a free plan and flat-rate Plus and Pro plans. That makes it easier to choose a level of file size, storage, and transfer capacity that matches your regular workload without pricing each transfer individually.
FAQ
A Few Things, Made Clear
Straightforward answers before you send your next large file.
MASV bills per gigabyte moved, which suits huge, occasional transfers well. LargeFileTransfer uses a free tier plus flat-rate paid plans, so your cost stays the same whether you send five files or fifty. If your transfers are frequent rather than occasional, flat pricing is usually easier to budget around.
Yes. LargeFileTransfer Pro supports files up to 250 GB per file, giving you room for large video masters, RAW collections, production assets, and other sizable projects. MASV has no fixed package-size limit and supports multi-terabyte transfers.
No. Files transfer exactly as uploaded, same codec, same resolution, same bitrate, with nothing recompressed along the way. This holds for ProRes, BRAW, R3D, and other professional formats, whether you're sending a single clip or an entire project folder in one go.
Yes. LargeFileTransfer requires a sender account, including on the Free plan. The Free plan costs $0 forever and supports up to 10 GB per file, 5 GB of storage, and 3 transfers per month. MASV also requires an account to use its standard service.
Yes. LargeFileTransfer Pro supports files up to 250 GB per file, so 100 GB and 250 GB projects fit comfortably within the plan. It’s a practical option for large video masters, RAW collections, production assets, and other files that need generous transfer capacity.
On MASV’s pay-as-you-go tier, transfers beyond the 15 GB monthly allowance are billed at the current per-GB rate. With LargeFileTransfer, you can instead choose a flat-rate Plus or Pro plan, giving regular senders a simpler way to plan their file-transfer costs.
No. LargeFileTransfer uses a free plan plus flat-rate Plus and Pro plans rather than charging you for each gigabyte transferred. That makes the pricing easier to understand when large-file transfers become a regular part of your workflow.
Yes. The Free plan includes 5 GB of account storage and 3-day link expiry, while Plus and Pro provide substantially more storage and links that can remain active for up to a year or never expire. That gives you more flexibility as projects stay active longer.
