Your Own Fax Number for $4.99/Month
Most fax numbers cost $12–17/month. Ours is $4.99 with 50 pages included — because the infrastructure behind a fax number costs a fraction of what these services charge.
Why a dedicated number matters
Without your own fax number, your faxes are sent from a shared number. If the other party responds, the reply can’t reach you.
IRS filings
A rejection notice from the IRS goes unanswered — penalties and refiling follow.
Insurance claims
Your insurer's determination never arrives — you miss your appeal window.
Bank documents
Your lender requests more documents — your closing gets delayed.
Legal filings
A court filing response goes missing — deadlines pass.
For $4.99/month, every reply reaches you. That’s less than the cost of missing one.

Common Questions
How much does a dedicated fax number cost?
FaxTerra Starter is $4.99/month with 50 pages included. That's 50–70% cheaper than eFax ($16.95/month) and 45% cheaper than Fax.Plus Basic ($8.99/month) for equivalent features. The infrastructure behind a fax number costs a fraction of what most services charge — most of what you pay elsewhere is margin built on market inertia.
Why is eFax $16.95/month?
eFax is owned by a company that operates at 43% profit margins on $350M in annual revenue. Their pricing reflects a near-monopoly position from the early 2000s, not what the service actually costs to deliver. The interface hasn't been meaningfully updated in over a decade either.
Can I keep my fax number if I cancel?
Your FaxTerra number is yours as long as your subscription is active. If you cancel, the number is released after a grace period. We don't charge cancellation fees or make you call to cancel — you can do it from your account settings in one click.
Do I need a dedicated number to send faxes?
No. If you only need to send faxes (not receive them), FaxTerra's free tier and credit packs work without a dedicated number. A dedicated number is only necessary if you want to receive incoming faxes — or if you need the person you faxed to be able to fax you back.
What if someone faxes a reply to a fax I sent?
With a dedicated number, your outgoing faxes show your number as the sender. If the recipient faxes back, it arrives in your inbox automatically. Without a dedicated number, faxes are sent from a shared number and replies can't be delivered to you.
How will I know when a fax arrives?
You get an email notification immediately when a fax arrives at your number. You can also view incoming faxes in your inbox on the web — works on your phone, tablet, or computer.
