For large files, i know it's not a good practice to expose the credentials, but...
1 - get the token from server-side
2 - use the token to upload from client-side and once the upload starts (or the first bytes are sent), send to server-side to refresh the token.
I guess that, once the upload process start, the token is no more necessary, so you can refresh it.
Also, using a second account (a free one) to just use as upload and move the file to a paid account as soon as the upload finish.
