Do you wish to fax online without spending money to do it? Thanks to modern fax solutions, your wish can become true, and you can send and receive free faxes using just your computer and an Internet connection. Even though some alternatives have caveats, there are some ways we can take advantage of our options.
This first alternative is to use one of the so-called free fax sites, which allow you to send a limited number of pages per day. The most popular alternatives are FaxZero and MyFax Free, and what they basically do is send a fax to the destination of your choice, and you only have to agree to some things. In the case of MyFax, you need to recommend the service to 3 friends, and in the case of Faxzero, an ad will be included in the cover page of your fax.
Our next alternative is to use an email fax service. Now you may be thinking “Aren’t these paid services?”. That’s true, but what a lot of people don’t know is that you can enjoy a free full month of faxing with them. Companies such as Ringcentral Fax,efax, MyFax, Rapidfax, among others have started offering 30 day free trials. You simply open your free fax account and you’ll enjoy the full basic plan for 30 days.
This is a much better alternative than using a free site because you can also receive faxes on your email, and they work with any provider, so you can send free fax from Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo or any other company of your choice.
The final way to fax over Internet for free is through the help of fax software. You can use demos or freeware, but software is more complicated than using a service, and current options are geared more towards integration with big companies.
