Prices verified April 2026 from each provider's public pricing page. Competitor pricing may change — check each provider's current pricing page before signing up. FaxZero is free if you accept ads on the cover page and a 5-fax daily limit, fine for casual use, not great for legal or medical. WiseFax matches our price. The subscription services beat us only if you fax more than twice a month. For one-off professional sends, we are the cleanest pay-once option.
Sensible questions about a thing nobody wants to do.
How much does it cost to send one fax online?
Shotfax is $2.99 flat for documents up to 20 pages. One payment, no subscription, no account, no per-page surprises. Most services charge $6 to $19 per month, even if you only fax once a year.
Do I need an account to send a fax?
No. That is the whole point. Upload the file, enter the number, pay $2.99, done. No signup, no password, no email verification. Optionally enter your email if you want the delivery receipt PDF.
Why is my doctor still on fax in 2026?
Blame HIPAA, blame inertia, blame the cost of migrating legacy systems. You still have to fax them. That part is not going to change this decade.
Is it actually cheaper than the office supply store?
The UPS Store charges $1.99 to $3.00 per page, so a five-page fax runs $10 to $15. We charge $2.99 flat for documents up to 20 pages. You also do not have to drive anywhere.
Do you keep my document?
No. The moment Telnyx confirms the fax went through (or failed), the file is deleted from our storage. We keep a small job record (number, page count, time, status) for 90 days so we can refund failed sends. We never read the file.
What if it fails to send?
Automatic full refund within 7 business days, no ticket needed. The receiving fax machine has to confirm back to Telnyx, which it usually does in under a minute.
Can I send to another country?
Yes. Telnyx reaches 90+ countries. Use the +country format, for example +44 for the UK. International sends cost the same flat $2.99 base.
Can I send a photo of a form from my phone?
Yes. Upload a JPG or PNG and we convert it to a clean black-and-white PDF automatically. Take the photo in good light with the whole document in frame. Works great for printed forms, invoices, and handwritten notes.
Is it HIPAA compliant?
Telnyx and our hosting can be configured for HIPAA, but the default service is not under a BAA. If you are sending PHI, email us first at support@shotfax.com so we set it up properly.
