How to send a fax online

Sending a fax online replaces the machine, the phone line, and the busy signal with a web page. Here's how to send one for free with OnlyFaxes.

1
Open the fax tool
Go to the OnlyFaxes home page. The free fax tool loads right away - there's nothing to install and no account to create.
2
Upload your document
Drag in a PDF or image, or pick a file from your device. We convert it into a clean, fax-ready page automatically.
3
Enter the fax number
Type the recipient's fax number for the US, Canada, UK, or Mexico. You can add a cover sheet if you'd like one.
4
Send and confirm
Add your email so we can send a delivery receipt, then hit Send Fax. You'll know within minutes when it arrives.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a fax machine to send a fax online?
No. Online faxing sends your document over the internet to the recipient's fax machine or fax line, so you never touch a physical machine.
Is sending a fax online free?
Yes. OnlyFaxes lets you send faxes for free with no signup. A dedicated number is available if you need your own line or higher page limits.
