Can I Send a Fax Internationally?
Yes. FaxItOnce sends to the US, Canada and 39 other countries at the same flat fee. Enter the full number as digits only with the country code, for example +14165551234. See the country list.
Is FaxItOnce Secure?
Uploads travel over HTTPS. Payments are handled on Stripe's checkout page, so FaxItOnce never sees your card number.
Why People Still Need to Fax
Courts, banks, insurers and government agencies still list fax numbers on their forms because a fax produces a transmission record and fits the workflows those offices already run. Many people who need a fax only need to send one form to one of those offices and have no other reason to keep a fax service. Why fax is still required.
Why Are Subscription Fax Services a Bad Deal for One-Time Users?
A subscription has a recurring fee and a page allowance. Compare its billing term and total commitment with your sending needs. FaxItOnce has no recurring fee.
Monthly Fees Add Up
A plan you forget about keeps billing every month.
Overage Charges
Go over the plan's page allowance and each extra page is billed.
Annual Commitments
The advertised price often needs a yearly commitment.
Something to Cancel
Stopping a plan takes a cancellation step. Pay-per-fax has nothing to cancel.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I send a one-time fax online?
Create a free account at FaxItOnce.com, upload your PDF, enter the recipient's fax number, and pay for that one fax. It works from any device with a web browser. There is no app download, no subscription and no monthly fee.
What is a one-time fax?
A single fax sent without signing up for a recurring service. You pay for that one transmission and nothing more. It suits people who need to send a form to an agency or employer once and have no reason to keep a fax subscription.
What happens if the fax does not go through?
Temporary failures may be retried automatically up to four times. Invalid numbers or document problems may require correction. We email the final result. A failed transmission leaves your fax credit in your account; it does not automatically refund the purchase.
