Faxing documents is a headache.

Maybe you’ve subscribed to an online faxing service, hoping that it would make faxing easier. But, what if you have to sign a document? Before faxing, you need to print it, sign it, and scan it.

This can be a major hassle, especially if you’re trying to close a deal fast. HelloFax solves that problem. We let you fill out, sign and send documents, all from your browser.

How Does it Work?

1. Enter a fax number or email address

Enter a fax number and we’ll deliver the document for you. If you put in an email address, we simply deliver your document via email. It turns out that one third of all our documents are signed and delivered that way. It’s completely paper free and more environmentally friendly than faxing.

2. Upload Your Document

We take almost 30 different file types.

3. Edit & Sign your document (Optional)

Normally when you sign a document, you have to print it out, fill it out, sign it and then scan it. You can now do that all in your browser. You can add text, check marks and even add your signature.

4. Add your signature.

We have several ways to add a signature. You can draw it in; upload it or your smartphone.

 

5. Click Send.

That’s it! You’ve saved a ton of paper and time.

Can I see it in action?

Sure, here’s a demo video!

But, I also have to receive faxes

That’s easy. Select a state and area code; we’ll then assign you a fax number. When someone faxes that number, we just forward it as a PDF to your email address.
