mintfax is a fax API that handles the infrastructure so you don’t have to deal with it directly. Send a fax with a single curl POST. Get delivery status via polling or webhooks. Handle compliance with built-in retention policies and zero-footprint mode.

How It Works

  1. Create an account - POST /account/register + verify email code to get your API key
  2. Send a fax - POST /fax with a file attachment queues the fax
  3. Track delivery - poll GET /fax/{id} or receive a webhook
  4. Credits - prepaid balance with hold-on-submit, capture-on-delivery, release-on-failure
A credit hold is placed when you submit a fax. If delivery succeeds, the hold is captured as a charge. If delivery permanently fails, the hold is released back to your balance. You are never charged for failed deliveries.
