Send fax online - the modern alternative to a fax machine
Is fax dead? Quite the opposite. Although email and messaging dominate communication, fax remains an important channel in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom and many other countries, especially where proof and official recognition matter. With FaxMonkey you can send a fax online without owning a fax machine.
Fax without a fax machine: how it works
The classic way to send a fax requires a fax machine, paper, toner and a phone line. With an online fax service like FaxMonkey, all of that is unnecessary. Simply upload your document, whether PDF, Word file or image, enter the recipient fax number and we take care of the rest. Your document is transmitted from our servers as a real fax to the recipient.
When is fax the better choice than email?
Email is convenient, but not always the best choice. A fax offers key advantages when deadlines and proof are important. While emails can end up in spam or remain unread, a fax is considered received as soon as the transmission is successful. Many authorities, courts and companies accept fax as an official communication channel, sometimes even as the only one besides postal mail.
Typical use cases for online fax
Online faxing is used frequently for: contract cancellations (mobile, insurance, gyms), communication with authorities (applications, objections, meeting deadlines), healthcare (referrals between medical practices, delivery of findings) and business correspondence (lawyers, notaries, tax advisors). In all these cases, fax provides a documented transmission path with a timestamp.
