Alfafile offers plans with pricing that varies based on the number of days and the amount of bandwidth.
The more bandwidth you choose, the higher the price will be.

Unlike traditional uploaders that reset bandwidth daily, Alfafile assigns a total download amount based on the plan duration.
For example, with a 30-day (4TB) plan, you can download up to 4TB over the course of 30 days.

Since there’s no daily limit, it’s ideal for users who want to download large amounts all at once.

Recommended tools for uploaders

Download Assistant Tool: JDownloader2

After upgrading to a premium account, it is recommended to use JDownloader2, a downloader that supports various websites, including overseas uploaders.

By simply registering your premium account, you can manage bandwidth and other settings in one place.

When using uploaders, please set up a VPN environment for better security and privacy

For privacy and security reasons, we recommend using a VPN.

What is a VPN

“VPN” stands for Virtual Private Network. Simply put, it allows you to use the internet through a virtual “dedicated line.” By changing your IP address to different countries, you can enhance your anonymity and privacy online.

Without using a VPN, your IP address can expose everything from your browsing history to your download history, meaning there is no real anonymity.

As using international services has become more common, I recommend using VPN services like AirVPN, ExpressVPN, or NordVPN to enhance your anonymity.

I personally use all three VPNs, but among them, NordVPN is particularly focused on anonymity, so I highly recommend it.

What if I can’t download a Alfafile file?

Here are some possible reasons why you may not be able to download files from Alfafile:

  • Is it a Premium-Only File?
    The file may be restricted to premium members only, meaning free users cannot download it.
  • Have You Already Downloaded the File?
    If you’ve already downloaded the file, you might be subject to a wait time due to download limits.
  • File Size Limitation?
    Free users are subject to file size restrictions, so check if the file exceeds the limit.
  • Has the File Been Deleted?
    The file might have been removed from the server, preventing you from downloading it.

Free users are subject to parallel download restrictions, meaning that once a file download is detected as started, you must wait a certain period before downloading the next file.

By purchasing a premium plan, all these restrictions will be lifted—except for cases where a file has been deleted.

Download Bandwidth on Alfafile

Alfafile does not use a daily bandwidth reset system. Instead, your total download amount is set based on the duration of your plan.
For example, with a 30-day plan, you can download up to 1TB over the course of 30 days.

You can check your remaining download bandwidth by viewing your My Account page.

Alfafile Download Speed

Download speeds may vary depending on the time of day, but when I tested downloading a file during peak evening hours, I got speeds of 7MB to 20MB.

Alfafile Downloads Are Slow

Alfafile generally offers high-speed downloads, but in some cases, download speeds may slow down due to factors such as server congestion or the distance to the server.

If your download speed is slow, try changing the time of day you download or, if you’re using a VPN, switching to a different server location may help improve the speed.

About Alfafile PLG Premium Link Generator

There is no optimal Premium Link Generator (PLG) for Alfafile. Considering factors like download bandwidth and speed, purchasing a premium plan directly from the official site ensures a more stable experience.

Additionally, buying directly from the official site supports the uploader, helping to sustain the service.

About Alfafile Resellers

Due to the weak yen, if you have U.S. dollars, preaka.jp is a recommended option as it allows purchases in Japanese yen.

Some payment methods are only available in Japan, so please use a credit card for your purchase.

Is Alfafile Safe? Is It Illegal?

Alfafile is a platform designed for file storage and sharing and operates legally.

However, some users upload and share copyrighted content illegally. Such actions are against the law, and knowingly downloading copyrighted material is also illegal. To avoid any legal issues, please use the service responsibly and refrain from engaging in unauthorized file sharing.
