One fax, or a few a year: send one fax by card. Sending from code, receiving, more than 20 pages or another country: use the wallet.

One fax by card, worked out

A 3 page document to a fax number in the United States costs $2.49. A 12 page document costs $5.92: $2.49 for the first 5 pages and 7 pages at $0.49. If the carrier confirms only 8 of the 12 pages, the charge is $3.96. A 20 page fax, the longest one order takes, is $9.84.

Method: the one-time block of rate table launch-v3, price as of 2026-11-12. The cover sheet is not counted.

Questions about sending one fax

Do I have to top up $10 to send one fax?

No. The $10 top-up is only for the prepaid wallet that software uses. One fax by card costs $2.49, as of 2026-11-12, and nothing else. You pay that one amount on Stripe when you send. There is no balance to fill first, no subscription and nothing that renews. The price covers up to 5 pages to the United States and Canada, with the cover sheet included.

What happens if my fax fails?

Nothing is charged. Your card is only authorized when you pay, and the charge is taken when the carrier confirms delivery. A busy line or no answer is tried up to three times in all. If every attempt fails, the authorization is released and a mail tells you why. Your bank can still show the hold as pending for some days after that. Check the number and send again as a new order.

What if only some of the pages arrive?

The fax ends partial and you pay for the pages the carrier confirmed, by the same price table. If 1 to 5 pages arrived, that is $2.49. If 8 of 12 pages arrived, it is $3.96. If no page was confirmed, nothing is charged. Nothing is sent again on its own, because a second attempt could repeat pages the recipient already has. You can send the missing pages as a new fax.

Which files can I send?

A PDF, a PNG, JPG or TIFF image, or plain text typed or pasted into the page. One order takes one document of up to 20 pages and 10 MB. Word and Excel files are not accepted, so export them to PDF first. A PDF with a password is refused. A fax is black and white, so colour in your document is lost on the way.

Is there a page limit?

Yes, 20 pages per order, and the cover sheet is not counted. The first 5 pages are in the flat price and each page after that is $0.49. The largest order is $9.84, as of 2026-11-12. A longer document needs the prepaid wallet, where one document can have 200 pages and the price is per page.

Do I get a receipt?

Yes, by mail, when the fax ends. It shows the destination, the pages, the amount charged and what the carrier reported: the provider reference and the completion time. Stripe also mails its own payment receipt for the card charge. There is no invoice document for a one-time order. The receipt and the evidence also stay in the dashboard that is created for your email address.

Can I get a refund?

In the normal case there is nothing to refund, because your card is charged only after the carrier confirms delivery. A failed fax, a fax you never confirmed and a fax with no result are all released without a charge. If a charge looks wrong, write to hello@faxforagents.com with the job id from your receipt. We compare it with the carrier's record and correct it when we were wrong.

Can I send one fax outside the United States and Canada?

Not as a one-time order. One fax by card is sold to fax numbers in the United States and Canada only. Other countries go through the prepaid wallet, at the per page prices in the international table on this page. That takes an API key and a top-up of at least $10. A country is marked verified on the coverage page only after a real fax reached it.

Do I need a fax machine or a fax number?

No. You need the document, the recipient's fax number and a card. The fax goes out from our sender number through a telephone carrier, and your name and email address are printed on the cover sheet. You need a fax number of your own only to receive faxes, and a one-time order does not include one.

How long does it take?

The fax goes out after you click the confirmation link in your mail. A fax of one page then took 29 to 34 seconds until the carrier's final report, with a median of 32. We measured that on our own live faxes between 2026-11-09 and 2026-11-13. It is a measurement and no promise. A longer document takes longer, and a busy line is tried up to three times in all. A result that never comes is released without a charge 48 hours after the fax went out, at most 99 hours after you paid. The refunds page says what happens if that release is late.

For developers

The rest of this page is about the prepaid wallet, for software that sends and receives faxes through the API or the MCP server. None of it applies to one fax paid by card.

A worked example

A script with a wallet

A script sends 20 three page faxes a month to US numbers. That is 60 pages, or $2.34 a month at $0.039 a page. One $10 top-up pays for 4 months of it.

Method: pages the carrier delivered times the per page price of rate table launch-v3, price as of 2026-10-28. A cover page, when you add one, counts as a page.

International

213 routes from rate table telnyx-2026-11-12, generated 2026-11-12. Receiving and numbers outside the launch countries are on request.

Each country's price is built from its landline rate. Outside the United States and Canada, a mobile, shared-cost, toll-free or internet-telephony number is refused at the quote with unsupported_destination, and no money is held.

On 2026-11-12 the price per page rose for 9 destinations. In each of them a landline range costs us more than the old price. The price is now built from the dearest landline range of the country. A quote issued before that day keeps its price. No other price on this page changed.

How the wallet works

You top up by card through a hosted checkout, $10 to $1,000 at a time. A send holds its quoted amount. When the job ends the hold is captured for the delivered pages and released for the rest, in the same transaction as the outcome. The ledger is double-entry and every transaction sums to zero. You can set a low-balance alert, an automatic top-up with a daily cap, and spending caps per organization, project or agent.

Invoices and receipts come from the card processor and are listed in the dashboard. Prepaid balances are yours until spent. A refund of unspent balance is handled by hand through hello@faxforagents.com.

Refer a customer

The affiliate program pays 40 percent of our margin on every charge a customer you referred pays, capped at 20 percent of the charge. Rule as of 2026-11-10. It does not change any price on this page.

Questions about the wallet

Will I pay for failed fax attempts?

No. A send that ends failed releases its hold and nothing is captured. A busy or unanswered line is tried up to three times in all, and no attempt is charged unless the fax is delivered. A send refused before the provider is called, for an invalid number or an empty wallet, costs nothing. The refunds page states the rule in full with the partial delivery case.

What happens when only some pages are delivered?

The job ends partial. Only the pages the provider confirmed are charged, at the per-page rate, and the hold for the rest is released in the same transaction. Nothing is retransmitted on its own, because a second attempt could send pages the recipient already has. You decide whether to send the missing pages as a new fax.

Is the advertised fax page price all-inclusive?

For the United States and Canada, yes. $0.039 per page sent and $0.019 per page received as of 2026-10-28. There is no connection fee, no per-minute charge and no monthly minimum. The wallet does need a first top-up of at least $10. Numbers are $2 a month. International sends use the rate table on this page, which is versioned and dated. The sandbox is free.

Are cover pages charged as fax pages?

Yes, a cover page is a page on the line, so it is counted and charged like any other. The quote says so. It lists the document pages and the cover page separately as billable pages before you send, so the receipt holds no surprise. You can send without a cover page and most agents do.

Do I need a subscription?

No. Pay per page from the prepaid wallet with a $10 minimum top-up, and the API, the MCP server and the sandbox are included. The Agent workspace at $19 a month as of 2026-10-28 is optional and adds no feature today. Everything in the API, the MCP server and the dashboard works the same without it.

What is the smallest amount I can pay?

$2.49 for one fax by card, as of 2026-11-12. With the prepaid wallet the smallest payment is a $10 top-up and the largest single top-up is $1,000. The wallet balance pays for pages as they are delivered. What you do not spend stays in the wallet, and unspent balance is refunded on request by the method you paid with.
