Why businesses still need a fax number
Fax isn’t going anywhere. Banks, courts, government agencies, and insurance companies still require it. Having a fax number means you can work with any of them.
Professional credibility
Clients, partners, and vendors expect a fax number. It signals that your business is established and reachable through every channel.
Government forms require it
State filings, IRS forms, permit applications, and license renewals often require or accept fax. Some state agencies process fax filings faster than mail.
Receive documents from anyone
Clients and institutions can fax you contracts, signed documents, and records. You're notified by email and on your phone, then view or download them as PDFs from your inbox — no hardware needed on your end.
Fraction of the old cost
A physical fax machine needs a phone line ($30-50/month), toner, paper, and maintenance. FaxTerra is $4.99/month with nothing else to buy.
Faxes arrive in your inbox as PDFs
When someone faxes your number, it shows up here — and you get an email notification. View, download, or forward from any device.

Common Questions
Do I need a fax machine to use this?
No. FaxTerra replaces the fax machine entirely. You get a real fax number that receives faxes — you're notified by email and on your phone, then view or download each one as a PDF from your inbox. When you need to send, upload a document from any device and fax it from your browser.
Can I put this number on my business cards and forms?
Yes. Your FaxTerra number is a real US or Canadian fax number. Give it out on business cards, include it on letterhead, put it on government forms. It works exactly like a traditional fax line — without the hardware.
What happens when someone faxes my number?
You get an email notification immediately with the fax attached as a PDF. You can also view all incoming faxes in your FaxTerra inbox from any device.
How is this different from eFax?
eFax charges $18.99/month for the same core features. FaxTerra is $4.99/month, built on modern technology, and you can cancel online any time.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees, no phone calls. Cancel online from your Plans page any time. Your number is released after a grace period.
If I send a fax, can the recipient fax me back?
Yes — if you have a dedicated number. Faxes you send show your number as the caller ID, so when the other party hits "reply" on their fax machine, it comes straight to your inbox. Without a dedicated number, faxes are sent from a shared number and replies can't reach you.
What if I only need to send faxes, not receive them?
You don't need a subscription to send. FaxTerra's free tier gives you 10 pages per month at no cost. Credit packs start at $1.99 for more. A subscription is only needed if you want your own fax number — to receive incoming faxes and get replies to faxes you send.
Businesses send with FaxTerra
Excellent · TrustScore 4.4This is by far the quickest, easiest way to send a fax anywhere. No hassle, easy signup with just your Google account, decent amount of pages per month, and you don't have to deal with advertisements or watermarks added to your documents. Highly recommended!
I checked several different fax apps and this was by far the best I found. Highly recommend.
We only needed one service, a .pdf file faxed to a number, but it performed that service without issue. We knew that this was an often-busy fax number we were sending to, but it informed us that the attempt timed out, and after we chose 'retry', it went through without problem. Quick, easy, responsive, we had no issues with it.
