Best online fax services

Fax.Plus is Swiss company Alohi's online fax service and the lowest month-to-month paid entry price in our current lineup. Basic costs $8.99/month, or $6.99/month when billed annually, for light non-HIPAA faxing; number porting and toll-free numbers start on Premium. HIPAA and a BAA require Enterprise at $99.99/month, or $79.99/month billed annually, and e-signatures run through Sign.Plus integration.

RingCentral Fax offers the best pages-per-dollar ratio in our current lineup, with 3000 pages on its standalone Fax 3000 plan plus HIPAA compliance and API access. It is strongest for business and healthcare teams that can evaluate per-user pricing.

SRFax is the healthcare specialist of our lineup: the plans shown here are its HIPAA-ready healthcare tiers with a BAA on request, verified on SRFax's own plan builder. It also sells standard small-business plans that its materials list from $9.95/month; we publish the healthcare lineup we could fully verify. Accounts are available in the U.S. and Canada.

Nextiva vFAX — called Nextiva Digital Fax in a current Nextiva article — is a budget-oriented business fax service. Essential costs $9.95/month month-to-month, or $7.95/month billed annually, for 500 pages pooled between sending and receiving — one of the largest entry-tier allowances in our lineup. HIPAA compliance is offered through a separate dedicated plan that delivers to the portal only, and standard-plan faxing runs through the web portal or email.

eFax is one of the longest-running online fax services, operated by Consensus Cloud Solutions. It costs more than newer rivals, but the Business plan adds a signed BAA — also offered on eFax Protect and eFax Unite — and faxing to 51 countries, while Personal covers the US and Canada only.

Dropbox Fax is a strong choice for teams already using Dropbox-style document workflows and signature fields before send. It is less attractive for affiliate monetization versus RingCentral, eFax, MyFax, or Fax.Plus programs.

iFax is an app-centric fax service with a steep feature ladder: the entry Basic plan only sends, while receiving, a fax number, HIPAA compliance, and the well-rated mobile apps arrive on Plus and Pro. Month-to-month rates are $14.99/$29.99/$39.99 per iFax's own pricing cards; annual billing lowers them to $12.49/$24.99/$33.33. The web signup path offers a 3-day free trial of Pro.

MyFax is a basic online fax service from eFax owner Consensus Cloud Solutions, with separate send and receive allowances on every plan. Its page-per-dollar ratio is not the best, but free number porting and identical features across tiers may appeal to users transitioning from a physical fax machine.
