How does Internet fax work?
Its simple. Just like a regular fax number, you simply provide that number for others to send you a fax. When we receive that fax on our servers, we convert that to a digital file that is immediately emailed to you as a PDF attachment. Internet fax is fast and reliable. No need for fax machines to be connected and always ON to receive a fax. With Internet fax your fax number is always ON and you can retrieve faxes from anywhere that you have access to your emails.
How do I send faxes?
Faxes are sent via your email. Attach a file or scanned copy to an email. Then type the recipient's fax number:
17606909005@myredfax.com into the To: field. You can also automatically create a fax cover page by entering the subject and body of the email. Click “send” and it arrives as a paper fax in your recipient’s fax machine.
How do I receive faxes?
When someone faxes you, you will receive an email notification with the fax as a PDF file attachment. Just double click the file to read it. Additional email address can also be provided for distribution to other parties.
Do I get a real fax number?
Yes. We offer unique toll free fax numbers by default but you can also request for a local fax number if you prefer. You simply provide your fax number to the person who needs to send you a fax, just like any other fax number.
Can I transfer my existing fax number from another company to the REDFax service?
