Web Fax

Web fax is a cloud-based method of sending and receiving fax documents using a web browser, without the need for a traditional fax machine, phone line, or dedicated hardware. It allows users to upload documents, enter a recipient’s fax number, and send faxes directly online from any device, when connected to the internet.

Web fax is commonly used by businesses that need digital method to manage fax communications while maintaining security and compliance standards.

Developers and businesses often use web fax alongside solutions such as a fax API or email to fax service to integrate faxing into their existing workflows and business software. For example medical practices often integrate fax with EHR systems.

How Web Fax Works

Web fax platforms provide an online interface where users can send and receive faxes digitally.  

When a user sends a web fax, they upload a document (such as a PDF or Word file), enter the recipient’s fax number, and click send. The platform processes the file and transmits it to the recipient’s fax machine or digital fax service.

Incoming faxes are received by the platform and converted into digital files, which users can view, download, or manage through their online dashboard.
