MyFax vs FaxTerra
MyFax charges $12/mo, or $8.25/mo billed annually, for 100 sent and 100 received pages. Their terms define that allowance as a $10 usage credit at $0.10 a page, so a costlier destination silently yields fewer pages, and a transmission over 60 seconds counts as more than one page. FaxTerra Business is $9.99/mo for 200 pages counted as pages.

MyFax: pros and cons
What they do well
- Email-to-fax is convenient
- Cancellation is self-serve online on any plan, with no annual carve-out
- Separate send and receive page counts
- Account can be shared with up to five email addresses
- No setup fee, stated on their pricing page
Where FaxTerra wins
- No free tier, which their own free-fax page states outright: free online faxing exists only for the duration of a trial
- Starts at $12/mo for 100 sent and 100 received pages
- The included allowance is a $10 usage credit at $0.10 a page, so faxing anywhere costlier yields fewer pages than advertised
- A transmission over 60 seconds counts as more than one page, and international faxes over 60 seconds bill per minute
- No HIPAA claim and no BAA anywhere on their site
- No committed retention period: their terms reserve the right to change how long faxes are kept, and everything is lost when the account closes
The verdict
MyFax is reliable, cancels without a fight, and costs more than it looks: $12/mo for 100 sent and 100 received pages, where their terms define those pages as a $10 usage credit and count each full or partial 60 seconds of transmission as a page. FaxTerra Business is $9.99/mo for 200 pages counted as pages, with 10 free ones a month underneath it and no HIPAA gap if a practice needs a BAA later.
