Faxage review (2026): is it worth $3.49 a month?
Internet fax by email, web, app and API, from $3.49 a month
Black Friday: is there a Faxage sale?
Our verdict
Third of our top three online fax services
For: Offices that want a BAA plus phone and Windows apps
Faxage sends and receives by email, on the web, from iPhone and Android apps that can sign and annotate received faxes, from a Windows print driver and through an API, with unlimited users on every plan. Professional is $7.95 a month per line for 300 minutes in and 300 out, then 5 cents a minute, and Faxage says every plan is HIPAA compliant, with a BAA on request. It is third because there is no trial or free plan, every plan has a $5 setup fee, most plans bill by the minute rather than the page, numbers and faxing cover only the US and Canada, and there is no Mac app.

Best for low-base-fee faxing with an API
Faxage is an online fax service with email, web, API and mobile faxing on every plan, and unlimited users on one account. The base fee starts at $3.49 a month, but most plans bill by the minute, every plan has a $5 setup fee, and faxing is limited to the US and Canada.
Who Faxage is for
- Fits if you want a small base fee and mostly receive faxes
- Works for offices that want unlimited users and an API on one account
Who Faxage is not for
- Skip it if you fax outside the US and Canada, as only those two are covered
- Pricey if you send a lot: Lite and most plans charge 5 cents a minute past any allowance
- Watch out: a $5 setup fee on every plan and $3.49 a month for each extra number
- Tight if you have many lines: Volume plans are capped at three, and Carrier plans need at least three
Why Faxage gets a 2.2
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

- CFeaturesWeb, email, API, a Windows print driver, HIPAA options and number porting on every plan. But faxing is limited to the US and Canada.

Keep Faxage, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Faxage you would be making fax numbers connected to the phone network. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 11 of the 20 other online fax services grade higher. It costs $41.88 a year.
What you could not
- Fax numbers connected to the phone network.
- Apps for Windows, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- An API that other software can build on.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: HIPAA.
What this rests on. Faxage’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
