SecurelyFax in one paragraph.

SecurelyFax is a cloud fax service that lets you send and receive faxes online without owning a fax machine or maintaining a phone line. You can send a fax from a web browser, iPhone or Android phone (installable as a Progressive Web App), by email to send@securelyfax.com, or programmatically via a REST API. Inbound faxes arrive on a dedicated US number (paid plans) or on a shared number with a 7-digit inbox code (free tier), and can be forwarded automatically to email, an HTTPS webhook, or another fax number. Documents are encrypted at rest with AWS KMS, TLS-protected in transit, and a HIPAA-eligible tier with a signed Business Associate Agreement is available for healthcare use. Pricing starts at 7¢ per page pay-as-you-go.

Everything you'd want from a modern fax service

📱

Send from any device

Upload a PDF in the browser, snap a photo of a paper page on your phone, or install SecurelyFax to your iPhone or Android home screen as a full-screen Progressive Web App.

✉️

Email-to-fax

Email send@securelyfax.com from your registered address with subject “Fax to +1XXXXXXXXXX” and a single PDF attached. We verify SPF + DKIM and dispatch within seconds.

🔔

Push notifications

Get a notification on your phone the instant a fax is received — even when the app isn't open. Works on Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and iOS Safari (16.4+) when installed to the home screen.

📷

Built-in document scanner

Use your phone camera to capture a paper document. We auto-detect the page edges, deskew, and clean up shadows so it looks like it came out of a flatbed scanner.

📨

Broadcast distribution lists

Save a list of recipient fax numbers and send the same document to all of them with one tap. Per-recipient delivery status, retried failures, and one combined audit entry.

↪️

Inbound forwarding

Auto-forward incoming faxes to one or more emails, an HTTPS webhook (HMAC-signed payload, signed download URL), or another fax number. Mix and match per inbound rule.

📞

Dedicated or shared numbers

Subscribe and pick your own US fax number, or use the shared inbound number with a unique 7-digit inbox code printed on every cover sheet — ideal for occasional receivers.

📝

Auto cover sheets

Every outbound fax can include a generated cover sheet with sender, recipient, page count, message, and a REPLY-BY-FAX box pre-filled with the inbox code so the recipient can fax you back.

🔐

HIPAA-eligible & KMS-encrypted

AES-256 at rest via AWS KMS, TLS in transit, signed download URLs that expire in minutes, full audit logs, and a signed BAA on the HIPAA tier.

🔧

REST API + webhooks

Send faxes programmatically and receive HMAC-signed webhooks on delivery and inbound. Per-user revocable API keys.

📊

Analytics dashboard

Pages sent and received, success rate, spend, and per-day trend lines for the last 30 / 90 days.

⬇️

Per-user data export

One-click ZIP of every fax PDF and your transaction history — required for HIPAA right-of-access requests, useful for everyone.

⚠️ PHI / HIPAA-regulated data — read this first
  • Only the HIPAA tier is covered by our Business Associate Agreement and is approved for transmitting or storing Protected Health Information (PHI).
  • The shared inbound number (with an inbox code on the cover sheet) is convenient for occasional receivers but is not HIPAA-compliant and best-effort only — delivery to the correct inbox depends on the sender printing your code legibly enough for OCR to match it. It is not guaranteed.
  • Receiving faxes in your own private inbox (instead of the shared line) requires an active subscription and ordering a dedicated US number from Fax numbers.
  • Email-to-fax (send@securelyfax.com) requires enough credit on your account to cover the page cost — emails from an account with insufficient credit are rejected with a branded reply.

Subscription overage and pay-as-you-go pages bill at 7¢ per page. Cancel anytime in account settings.

Frequently asked questions

How do I send a fax online with SecurelyFax?

Sign up, upload a PDF (or scan a paper page with your phone camera), enter the destination fax number, and tap Send. You can also send by emailing send@securelyfax.com with the subject line “Fax to +1XXXXXXXXXX” and a PDF attached, or by calling our REST API.

Can I receive faxes too?

Yes. Free pay-as-you-go users receive on a shared US number using a 7-digit inbox code printed on every outbound cover sheet. Paid plans get their own dedicated US fax number. Inbound faxes can be auto-forwarded to email, an HTTPS webhook, or another fax number.

Is SecurelyFax HIPAA-compliant?

Only the HIPAA tier is HIPAA-eligible. It ships with a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA), AES-256 KMS-encrypted storage (isolated, per-tenant object keys), TLS 1.2+ in transit, a dedicated US fax number (no shared inbound), extended audit logs, configurable retention up to 7 years, and per-user data export for right-of-access requests. PHI may not be sent, received, or stored on Personal, Business, or pay-as-you-go. The shared inbound number with an inbox code is best-effort routing and is not HIPAA-compliant.

Do I need a dedicated number to receive faxes?

You need one if you want faxes to land directly in your own private inbox. Dedicated numbers require an active subscription (Personal, Business, or HIPAA). Pay-as-you-go accounts share the inbound line and rely on a 7-digit inbox code printed on every outbound cover sheet so senders can route replies back — convenient and free, but best-effort and not HIPAA-compliant.

What does email-to-fax cost?

The same as any other send: 7¢/page on PAYG, or counted against your included monthly pages on a subscription. Your account must have enough credit (or remaining quota) at the time the email arrives. If not, we reject the email and reply with an Add Credits link instead of sending a partial fax.

Can I send a fax by email?

Yes. Email send@securelyfax.com from your registered SecurelyFax address with the subject “Fax to +1XXXXXXXXXX” and exactly one PDF attached. We verify SPF + DKIM, send within seconds, and email you the delivery receipt.

Does SecurelyFax have an API?

Yes. Business and HIPAA tiers include a REST API for programmatic sending and HMAC-signed inbound webhooks. API keys are scoped per user and revocable from the dashboard.

How much does it cost to send a fax?

Pay-as-you-go is 7¢ per outbound page with no monthly fee. Subscription plans start at $7.99/month for 200 included pages plus a dedicated number. Overage on subscription plans bills at the same 7¢ per page.

Can I install SecurelyFax on my phone?

Yes — it's a Progressive Web App. Open the site in Safari (iPhone) or Chrome (Android), tap Share → Add to Home Screen, and launch it like a native app. Push notifications work in standalone mode.

Can I send the same fax to many people at once?

Yes. Save a distribution list of recipient numbers and broadcast a single document to all of them with per-recipient delivery status and a single audit entry.
