FaxBurner review
A flexible fax service with a useful free tier and mobile access.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
FaxBurner is an online fax service for individuals and small businesses that need to send and receive faxes without a physical fax machine or dedicated phone line. It supports web faxing, email-to-fax, fax-to-email, temporary or permanent fax numbers, document signing, PDF delivery, archiving, and delivery notifications. Its mobile offering includes iPhone, iPad, and Android access, while users can also create faxes from photos and uploaded files.
The free plan provides a disposable fax number, 5 outbound pages total, 25 inbound pages per month, and email-to-fax and fax-to-email support. Professional costs $14.95 per month and adds a toll-free permanent fax number plus 500 inbound and outbound pages per month. Premier costs $24.95 per month and raises the allowance to 2,000 inbound and outbound pages per month. Both paid plans retain email-based faxing, while the service also supports monthly billing. For occasional inbound faxing, the free tier is a practical starting point; regular outbound users should compare the page allowances against their expected volume.
FaxBurner fits workflows that center on email, mobile devices, and common cloud storage, with integrations for Dropbox, iCloud, Google Drive, and email. The service includes signing, fax inbox and outbox archiving, and notifications, but its platform and integration breadth is limited compared with broader business communications tools. International faxing is stated as supported, while the App Store listing limits faxing to the United States and Canada. HIPAA support is described for enterprise or compliance-focused plans, and standard service is not claimed HIPAA-compliant. Choose FaxBurner for flexible personal or small-business faxing; consider an alternative if wider integrations, consistent international coverage, or standard HIPAA compliance is central.
