WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DOCUMENT For one-off faxes, we delete the document after sending and keep the delivery record — never the thing you sent.
What you get

Every fax comes with the receipt the machines make.

Not "sent." The actual conversation between your fax and theirs — and a permanent link you can send to anyone who claims it never arrived.

MCF is the fax protocol's own confirmation code. It means their machine acknowledged every page — not that we tried. That's what "Delivered" is standing on above, not a guess.

Pricing

Most people send one fax and never come back.

That's fine — that's what the $2.99 send is for.

If you send faxes every week, or you need people to be able to fax you, a number is cheaper.

$2.99 covers the range where most single documents stop. Twenty-five pages is a lot of contract; past that, $0.12 a page keeps a long fax from costing more than it should.

WHEN NOT TO USE US

If it's one or two pages and you're near a library, go there.

Plenty of public libraries still fax for free or about a dollar — call first, a lot of them have quietly stopped. The UPS Store runs roughly $2 a page and Staples is similar, so we're cheaper past about two pages, but that's not the same as always being the right answer.

And if your fax is under three pages and you don't mind an advert on the cover sheet, FaxZero is free and it works. We're better past three pages, we take a card instead of PayPal only, and we give you the transmission record — which they don't, at any price.

Don't know which library or UPS Store near you actually offers it? We've mapped real, named locations with hours and prices in a few cities so far — see fax near me.

Questions people actually ask

Straight answers

Can I fax from my phone?
Yes — that's mostly what this is for. Take a photo of the page or pick a PDF. iPhones and Androids have no built-in fax, so this or an app are your options, and this one doesn't need installing. We handle the conversion too — right resolution, so nothing gets cut off.
What happens if it doesn't go through?
We retry three times with a gap between attempts. If it still fails you are not charged, and you still get the record showing exactly why — busy line, no answer tone, or the far end hanging up mid-page.

Three tries, then we stop. After that we’re just harassing someone’s fax machine.

Do you build the cover sheet?
Yes, automatically. Federal law requires your name and number on the transmitted page, so every fax gets a cover sheet — you don't have to make one yourself.
Do you keep my document?
No. We convert it, send it, and delete it. What we keep is the transmission record — timings, page count, confirmation code. Never the contents.
Is this HIPAA compliant?
The one-time $2.99 send is a general-purpose consumer flow, not built for PHI. Business Fax Number has safeguards and covered vendor agreements designed for HIPAA-regulated workflows, but NerdFax does not make a blanket “HIPAA compliant” claim for every customer or workflow. See Health Data & HIPAA Disclosure for the current scope, or get in touch before sending or receiving PHI.
Can I receive faxes too?
A dedicated Business Fax Number (Number: $9/month, one local US number; Office: $29/month, more seats and numbers) both sends and receives — inbound faxes land in a secure inbox tied to your account. The one-time $2.99 send is send-only. See the details →
How reliable is it, really?
We publish our measured delivery rate every month rather than quoting an uptime number we can't back. Fax is an analogue protocol over ageing phone lines — some numbers simply don't answer. When that happens you'll see precisely which step failed.

Some of the copper carrying your fax was installed during the Reagan administration. We can route around a lot of things. We cannot route around 1985.
