There are instances when you can’t avoid using faxes as a communication tool. Personally, I have a deep hatred of faxes. I find them outdated and costly, especially when I need to send them to an overseas number.
Thankfully though, there’s a low cost (free even, if you can tolerate ads in your faxes) method of sending faxes to the USA or Canada.
For $1.99 (USD), you can fax over a document to a US or Canadian number without needing a fax machine thanks to FaxZero. The document can be up to 15 pages (I’m assuming it’s for a standard A4 or letter size page) and should be in MS Word or PDF format in order to use this service.
If you’re really cheap, you can even fax a document using this service for free! However, the document is limited to three pages and a cover page containing advertisements will be included in your transmission.
If the fax is for business purposes, I suggest you invest in that $1.99 transmission fee to avoid your recipient having an ad-laced cover page. Surely you don’t want to be seen as cheap (or worse; unprofessional) to your prospects!

I’ve been using FaxZero’s services all these while. And I must say, I’m quite satisfied with them. No problems so far!

GotFreeFax.com is another website that lets user send free fax online to the US and Canada. User can either upload a PDF/Word file or enter text to fax. Plus, it does not add Ads to the fax, which makes it more suitable for faxing formal documents.

That is really another advantage of internet after sending free sms. Now Fax wow … that’s a great idea.
