How to send a one-time fax (no subscription)

Use a pay-per-fax service. ConfirmFax charges $2.99 for one fax up to 10 pages, takes payment only when it’s delivered, and never starts a subscription.

Most fax apps are built to sell a weekly plan. If you only need one fax, you shouldn’t have to remember to cancel anything.

Step by step

Go to confirmfax.com, or open the ConfirmFax app.
Upload the PDF or photos and type the fax number.
Pay $2.99 once. There’s no trial and no plan attached.
Get your delivery receipt. That’s it; nothing renews.

Watch out for “free trial” fax apps

Many top fax apps start a free trial when you send your first fax, then charge weekly or yearly. Deleting the app doesn’t cancel the subscription: you have to cancel it in your App Store or Google Play settings.

ConfirmFax costs $2.99 per fax with no subscription. On the website you’re charged only when the fax is delivered.
