Bluto Box

Comparison

A Mega alternative without the catch

It does the same job: upload a file, get a link, share it. Just with clearer limits, and you don't need an account to start.

No shared-IP lockouts

Mega tracks free downloads by IP address, not account. On shared or public Wi-Fi, someone else's downloads can lock out yours for hours. Bluto Box's quota belongs to your own account.

A plain daily reset, not a rolling window

Mega's roughly 5 GB / 6-hour transfer quota is easy to use up with a single large download. Bluto Box gives 5 GB every day on a straightforward 24-hour clock.

Just file sharing, not a full cloud suite

Mega is built as an encrypted cloud drive first. If all you need is upload-a-file-get-a-link, Bluto Box does that one job without extra setup.

Based on Mega's publicly documented free-tier transfer-quota behavior as of September 2026. Limits change over time on any service, so it's worth checking the provider's own site for the current details.
