Finding Fax Numbers: FAQs
How does a digital fax number work?
Faxes sent to your number are received by the service, converted to a digital file (like a PDF), and delivered to your email or account dashboard. To send a fax, you upload a document via a web portal, app, or email, and the service transmits it to the recipient’s fax machine or digital service. This setup allows faxing from anywhere with internet access. Read more about how faxing over the internet works here.
