Flexible Fax Delivery

5 Fax Delivery Modes—Choose What Works for You

Every business handles faxes differently. VoipPlus lets you choose exactly how incoming faxes are delivered—no physical machine required.

1. Email Only

Incoming faxes are received as PDF attachments delivered straight to your email inbox. No physical fax machine needed. Perfect for offices going paperless.

2. ATA + Email Capture

Fax rings your physical fax machine via ATA and sends a PDF copy to email. Both destinations get every fax—ideal for offices that want a paper copy plus a digital backup.

3. ATA + Email Pass-through

Fax rings your physical machine first. If the machine answers, it prints. If the machine doesn't answer, email gets the PDF copy as a safety net. No missed faxes.

4. ATA Capture

Faxes are delivered exclusively to your physical fax machine connected via ATA adapter. No email delivery. For offices that prefer traditional fax workflow.

5. ATA Pass-through

Fax rings your physical machine via ATA. If the machine doesn't answer, the system captures the fax server-side so it's never lost. Retrieve missed faxes from the portal.

Switch Anytime

Change your fax delivery mode whenever you want—just contact support. No fees, no waiting. Your fax number stays the same regardless of which mode you choose.

Send Faxes Too

Multiple Ways to Send Faxes

Sending faxes is just as flexible as receiving them. Use whichever method fits your workflow.

Fax Portal (Web)

Common Questions

Fax Service FAQ

How do I receive faxes by email?

We assign a dedicated fax number (or port your existing one) and configure it for email delivery. Incoming faxes arrive as PDF attachments in your inbox within seconds. You can designate one email address or multiple recipients.

Can I keep my existing fax number?

Yes. We port your current fax number to VoipPlus at no charge. The porting process typically takes 5–14 business days depending on your current carrier. Your fax number continues working throughout the transition.

Can I still use my physical fax machine?

Absolutely. Connect your fax machine to a Cisco ATA adapter (available for $5/month rental or bring your own). The ATA plugs into your internet router and provides a standard phone jack for your fax machine. We configure T.38 fax protocol for reliable transmission.

How do I send a fax?

You have three options: send from the web-based fax portal by uploading a document, send via email by attaching your document and emailing it to the fax gateway, or send from a physical fax machine connected via ATA. All three methods use your dedicated fax number as the caller ID.

Is fax service HIPAA compliant?

Fax transmission (including fax-to-email) is widely accepted in healthcare for exchanging protected health information (PHI). Our system transmits faxes over encrypted connections. For email delivery, we recommend using a HIPAA-compliant email provider on the receiving end to maintain full compliance.

How much does fax service cost?

Fax service is included free with every VoipPlus account—no add-on fee, no per-page charges for incoming faxes. You only need a dedicated fax DID ($5/month) if you want a separate fax number. If you use an ATA for a physical fax machine, the adapter rental is $5/month.
