MEGA offers user-controlled encrypted cloud storage accessible through web browsers and mobile apps. Unlike other cloud storage providers, your data is encrypted and decrypted only by your client devices, not by MEGA.
You can upload files from your smartphone or tablet, and access, search, store, download, stream, view, share, rename, or delete them from any device, anywhere. Share folders with your contacts and see their updates in real-time.
MEGA’s robust end-to-end encryption ensures that we cannot access or reset your password. It is essential to remember your password and back up your recovery key. If you forget your password and lose your recovery key, you will not be able to access your files.
Use MEGA’s secure chat for end-to-end encrypted communication, including private video and audio calls. Chat histories sync automatically across multiple devices, and you can easily add files from your MEGA cloud drive to your chats.
MEGA offers 20 GB of free storage space to all registered users as standard. You can earn an additional 5 GB of storage space per achievement by completing tasks in the MEGA achievements program.

- **Pro Lite Subscription:** €4.99 (US$4.99) per month or €49.99 (US$49.99) per year, with 400 GB of storage and 1 TB transfer quota per month.
