The Internet fax service from InterFAX lets you send a fax from email programs without having to install a fax modem or any fax server. Whether you are one person sending faxes from your SOHO or an organization with thousands of employees, our internet fax service saves you time and money. You can send faxes for as little as $0.07/€0.07/£0.04 per page, without any setup fees or monthly fees.
Interfax is designed to be as similar to dialling your fax machine as possible. The principle is to specify a fax number as if you were dialling it from your standard phone. However, you may add access codes (long-distance, international), as well as country codes and area codes. In case no explicit access codes or prefixes are specified, Interfax will automatically add them according to your user settings.
For reading convenience, a fax number may contain any characters, such as hyphens, parentheses etc. Any non-digit character is ignored, with the exception of a plus sign, which is used as a generic International Access Code.
Fax numbers that contain brackets needs to be written as quoted string, see examples below.
The safest fax number format
If you are not sure what your user settings are, simply use the following standard international access notation:
for example: +1-212-9876543
