Does Keep2Share work with JDownloader 2?
Yes. I use it daily. Add your premium account in JD2 → no more captchas, full resume.
Why is free so slow?
Intentional throttling. Free users get lowest server priority. That’s how they push premium.
→ More details on free speed limits. For more detail, see my separate guides on Keep2Share traffic limits and Premium Pro vs Max.
What happens after premium expires?
You go back to free. Files are kept for 30 days (free retention). Premium files stay 90 days during subscription.
What payment method should I use?
Credit card works fine. Crypto also accepted. I used Visa – no issues.
Does speed depend on location?
Yes. From Japan I got slightly lower speeds than from EU. But premium was always much faster than free.
Is Keep2Share safe?
I haven’t had issues. They scan files. But as always, be careful with unknown .exe files.
Occasional small downloads may be manageable on Free. For regular archive downloads, the waiting time and captcha were the main reasons I moved to Pro.
