When does PayPal charge me for the fax?

PayPal authorizes the displayed amount before transmission. FaxOnWeb captures that authorization after confirmed delivery. A pending authorization alone does not mean the fax has arrived or the payment has been captured.

Can I send one international fax without a FaxOnWeb account or subscription?

Yes. FaxOnWeb sends one-time outbound faxes to the 19 destinations currently available at checkout, without a FaxOnWeb account, subscription or prepaid credits. PayPal account or guest-payment options depend on availability at checkout. Check the destination, fax number, page count and total before authorizing PayPal.

How much does a 4- or 5-page international fax cost?

A 4- or 5-page fax costs USD 2.89 for destinations that support that page count, including Japan, Canada and the United Kingdom. Prices include taxes and use the same page-count rule across checkout destinations. Brazil supports up to 5 pages and China up to 3 pages. Count the cover sheet and all attachments, check destination availability, and review the total before authorizing PayPal.

Pay-as-you-go online fax pricing

Authorize one fax at a time without buying prepaid credits. There is no monthly plan or trial conversion. Each fax has one visible price and its own delivery-linked payment state.

One-time price: Up to 5 pages cost USD 2.89; 10 pages cost USD 4.84 where that page count is supported. Each additional page beyond 5 is USD 0.39. Prices are in USD and include taxes. Brazil supports up to 5 pages and China up to 3 pages. Count every uploaded page, including a cover sheet, and review the total before PayPal opens.
Authorization before submission: PayPal authorizes the displayed amount before FaxOnWeb submits the fax. Authorization is not the same as a completed charge.
Capture after confirmed delivery: The authorized payment is captured only after the recipient fax machine confirms delivery.
Final delivery failure: A final delivery failure starts an attempt to release the PayPal authorization, or refund an already captured payment. Check the status page for the result; an unresolved or failed recovery remains visible for support review. Use a retry only when it is offered for that fax.

One fax, one payment authorization

Prepare the document and recipient number, then review the total before opening PayPal. You authorize that fax only. An authorization may appear as pending before the payment is captured after confirmed delivery.

Authorize one fax instead of committing to a monthly fax service
Review the document page count and total price before approving payment
Keep the status page available until the delivery and payment results are confirmed

How online fax with PayPal works

Upload your document: Upload PDF, DOC, DOCX or supported image files, up to 50 MB combined per fax. No fax hardware needed.
Pay with PayPal: Review the one-time price, then authorize the displayed amount in PayPal without a subscription.
Send and track delivery: The fax is submitted after authorization. Follow the status through confirmed delivery or a final failure; provider acceptance is not proof of delivery. After successful delivery, download the English PDF transmission confirmation in the original browser session. It confirms fax transmission, not the recipient institution's acceptance or a filing deadline.
