File transfer limits, verified
What each service actually allows, taken from its own pricing page and help center. Where the two disagree, we say so. Every card was last verified on 26 September 2026; we re-check monthly and note changes in the changelog.
We make Honestfiles, so its card comes first and is marked. The others are quoted from their own pages.
