No account needed to upload

Collect documents from anyone. They are deleted automatically.

Send a secure link. People upload from any phone or computer, with no account and no app. Your team opens the files in your dashboard or your own system, and FileCourier deletes them when the retention period ends.

What you control

You decide who uploads and who sees the files. FileCourier deletes them for you.

Deleted automatically

Choose a retention period from 5 minutes to 72 hours, counted from upload. FileCourier then deletes each file automatically.

One-time passcode

Require a 6 digit code before anyone uploads. It goes to the email address or phone number the request was sent to.

Named users only

Only signed-in members of your workspace can open documents: Workspace Admins, Developers and Reviewers, with optional multi-factor sign-in.

A record of every open

Each open is recorded with the time and IP address, and Workspace Admins can search an audit log of who did what and when.

Your logo, not ours

Your logo appears on the upload page, the passcode screen and the Upload Complete page, so people see who is asking.

Delivery to your system

With a webhook, your system hears the moment an upload completes and gets a short-lived link to each file. Or open the files in your dashboard.

How it works

Three steps, and the person uploading never touches your systems.

  1. You request

    Tell FileCourier who needs to send documents and what you need. They get a branded email or text with a secure link.

  2. They upload

    They open the link and upload from their phone or computer. No account to create and no app to download.

  3. You get the files

    Your team opens them in the dashboard or your system. FileCourier deletes them automatically when the retention period ends, at most 72 hours after upload.

Use cases

Wherever a process waits on a document from someone outside.

Lending

Collect pay stubs, tax returns and bank statements from borrowers.

Legal

Gather case documents, contracts and evidence from clients.

Software platforms

Add document requests to your product with one API call and one webhook.

Read the API docs

For developers

One request out. One event back.

Create a request with one API call. When the upload completes, FileCourier posts one event to your webhook, with a short-lived link to each file unless the project requires a passcode. Or skip the webhook and open the files in your dashboard.

  • Your own reference ID and metadata travel with the request and come back in the event.
  • Authenticate with your client ID and secret.
  • The download link in the event lasts 5 minutes at most.

Create a request

  },
  "request": {
    "documents": ["Government ID", "Proof of Address"]

Event sent to your webhook

  "metadata": { "orderId": "ORD-12345" },
  "files": [
    {

      "contentType": "application/pdf",
      "downloadUrl": "https://...s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/...?X-Amz-Expires=300&X-Amz-Signature=..."
    }
  ],
  "completedAt": "2026-01-22T14:22:18.000Z"
}

Shortened. The webhook reference lists every field.

Frequently asked questions

Does the person uploading need an account?

No. They open the secure link from your email or text message and upload from any phone or computer. They create no account, choose no password and install no app. If your project requires a passcode, they first enter a one-time code sent to the same email address or phone number.

How long are files kept?

For the retention period a Workspace Admin sets, from 5 minutes up to 72 hours, counted from upload. New workspaces start at 24 hours. When the period ends, FileCourier deletes each file automatically, whether or not anyone downloaded it. The record of who opened it is kept.

Can I require a passcode?

Yes. A Workspace Admin can turn on a passcode for a project. Before seeing the request or uploading, the person must enter a 6 digit one-time code that FileCourier sends to the email address or phone number the request was sent to.

Who can open the files?

Only named, signed-in users of your workspace: Workspace Admins, Developers and Reviewers. Reviewers can create requests and open documents but cannot delete them. Each open is recorded, and Workspace Admins can search an audit log of who did what, when, and from which IP address.

How much does FileCourier cost?

FileCourier costs $95 a month for one plan with unlimited requests and unlimited users. New accounts start with a 14-day free trial. Your card is collected at signup, and you can cancel anytime from the Billing page.

What happens at the end of the trial?

Your card is charged and the monthly subscription begins, unless you cancelled during the trial. If you cancel, nothing is charged and the subscription ends when the trial does. While the trial runs, the Billing page shows how many days are left and when it ends.
