INFORMATION    TECHNOLOGY    SOLUTIONS

We currently offer 2 separate fax to email and email to fax solutions, what we call prepaid and post-paid.
Our prepaid solution is what is generally marketed as FREE fax to email as it is an absolutely free service should you use it to only receive faxes. Sending faxes on the FREE service however requires that you purchase fax credits via our payment gateway which requires a credit card for processing.

These fax credits then allow you to send faxes form your email address at fixed rates and since you need to purchase these credits before using it, we call it a prepaid solutions.

Alternatively, our post-paid offering allows you the convenience to use the service for an entire month and only get billed for what was used during that month - similar to a cellphone contract, hence the post paid moniker.
