Cost and volume

Page price is only half the math.

At the usual one $1 token per page, WiseFax matches Just One Fax at five pages and costs more beyond five. That is only a rule of thumb: WiseFax shows destination-specific token needs before sending, and Just One Fax supports U.S. destinations only.

Just One Fax prices each destination as a separate $5 transaction. One page and 100 final pages cost the same, but a second recipient or a later fax costs another $5. It does not preserve an unused monthly allowance or provide a fax number between sends.

1 send$5

2 sends$10

5 sends$25

Choose by workflow

Who each service is actually for.

Choose WiseFax when

An occasional sender with a very short document or international destination who wants a checkout-priced pay-as-you-go route.

You are sending fewer than five pages at a one-token destination
Your destination is outside the U.S.
You want an optional U.S. or Canada receiving number

Choose Just One Fax when

The requirement is one prepared outbound U.S. fax, not a fax account.

Your destination is in the U.S.
Your document has enough pages that token-per-page pricing exceeds $5
You want one checkout without a receiving subscription

What WiseFax changes

The added capability has a tradeoff.

Distinguishing strengths

Worldwide destination coverage
Pay-as-you-go sending with a total shown before confirmation
Optional receiving number and broad document-format support

Limits to inspect

Most destinations consume tokens by page, so long faxes become expensive
Token requirements can vary by country
Receiving introduces an automatically renewing subscription

Hard boundaries

Account, inbound, geography, and compliance.

These distinctions rule out more options than a small price difference does.

Account: Just One Fax: no login or dashboard. WiseFax: No subscription is required to send; signup or transaction details may be requested when tokens are purchased.
Inbound: Just One Fax: no receiving number. WiseFax: Optional U.S. or Canada number for $8/month or a weekly subscription.
International: Just One Fax: U.S. destinations only. WiseFax: Domestic and worldwide sending; token requirements vary by destination.
Compliance: Just One Fax: no HIPAA claim or BAA. WiseFax: WiseFax’s public pricing pages do not state a HIPAA or BAA commitment. Confirm regulated-workflow requirements separately.

Provider compliance statements are not a substitute for your own legal, security, procurement, and configuration review. Confirm the exact plan and obtain any required agreement before transmitting regulated information.

Reasons not to choose us

Questions, answered

Before you choose a fax route.

How much does WiseFax cost per page?

A token costs $1, and most domestic and many international faxes use one token per page. The destination can change the requirement, so use the total WiseFax shows before sending.

Does WiseFax require a monthly subscription?

Not for pay-as-you-go sending. A subscription is required if you want a WiseFax receiving number.

Can WiseFax send internationally?

Yes. WiseFax advertises worldwide coverage, with token requirements based on the destination and page count.

For the one-off job

One outbound U.S. fax. $5. No account.
