Who is this article for?
This article explains what faxing costs in Colib, for sending and for receiving, so you can choose the option that fits your clinic.
Fax pricing at a glance
| Service | Price | How to get it |
|---|---|---|
| Sending faxes | $0.10 CAD per page successfully sent | Available to every clinic, nothing to set up. |
| Receiving faxes with a dedicated number | $12 CAD per month | On request, at support@colib.io. |
All prices are in Canadian dollars, taxes not included.
Sending faxes: you only pay for the pages that are delivered
- You pay $0.10 CAD for each page sent: a 3-page fax costs $0.30 CAD. If you add a cover page, it counts as a page.
- A fax is charged once its status is Sent, meaning the recipient's fax machine confirmed receipt.
- A fax with the status Not sent, for example because the line was busy or the number was wrong, is not charged.
- Sending faxes does not require the monthly option. Without a dedicated number, your faxes are sent from Colib's shared number.
Receiving faxes: the monthly option
For $12 CAD per month, your clinic gets:
- its own fax number, on which your correspondents can fax you;
- the reception of your faxes directly in Colib, in the fax inbox shared by your team;
- a Colib notification and an email when a fax arrives;
- the filing of each fax in the right client record, in a few clicks;
- outgoing faxes sent from your own number, so your correspondents can reply by fax.
Faxes you receive are not charged: the monthly option covers all of them, whatever their number or length. Faxes you send remain charged $0.10 CAD per page, with or without the monthly option.
A few examples
Amounts before taxes.
| Your use in a month | Cost |
|---|---|
| You send 10 faxes of 2 pages each, all delivered, and you do not receive faxes. | 20 pages × $0.10 = $2.00 CAD |
| You send 10 faxes of 2 pages each, 2 of which could not be delivered. | 16 pages × $0.10 = $1.60 CAD |
| You have a dedicated number and you send 20 faxes of 3 pages each, all delivered. | $12 + 60 pages × $0.10 = $18.00 CAD |
