FAQ

The most common questions Australians ask about Internxt

Most-searched questions, per Sistrix

What is Internxt used for?

Private file storage and sync for people who want privacy they can verify rather than just trust. Everything is encrypted on your device before upload, the apps are open source on GitHub so anyone can audit them, and the company operates under EU privacy law (GDPR). Files are also fragmented across storage before they leave you. It suits privacy-minded individuals who value auditability and open-source transparency over the deepest feature set or the slickest polish.

How much does Internxt cost?

The 1 TB tier is priced at US$9.99/mo, and Internxt runs frequent lifetime deals — pay once, keep the storage — which is where it becomes especially cheap over the long run. A small free tier lets you start at no cost. It is among the most affordable options in this comparison, though remember its storage regions are European rather than Australian, so very large transfers can take longer from here. Watch the introductory versus standard rates when a promotion ends.

Is Internxt safe to use?

Yes. Internxt uses zero-knowledge, client-side encryption on everything, with fully open-source apps that anyone can audit — files are encrypted and fragmented before they upload, so the provider cannot read them. Its youth and small scale are considerations for track record and polish, not for the security model itself, which is transparent and independently inspectable.

Is Internxt free?

Yes — there is a permanent free tier (starting small, around 1 GB, and expandable through simple tasks and referrals) that carries the same encryption as the paid plans. It is modest in size but genuinely free, which makes it a low-risk way to try the open-source, zero-knowledge approach before paying.

Who owns Internxt?

Internxt Universal Technologies is an independent Spanish company, founded in 2017 by Fran Villalba Segarra. It is venture-backed but not owned by any tech giant — and because the apps are open source, trust in the product does not hinge on who the owner is anyway.

What are the disadvantages of Internxt?

It is the youngest and smallest provider here, and it shows in the details: sync speeds and overall polish trail pCloud, there is no document editing or real collaboration, and the storage regions are European — a long way from Australia, which is noticeable on large transfers. None of that touches the security, which is the point of the service; it is the maturity and convenience that lag the established names. Choose it for verifiable, open-source privacy, not for the broadest feature set.
