Simple Fax Sending / Single Fax Messaging


Email to Fax
The easiest and most common option for electronic fax messaging is "Email-2-Fax".
Simply attach the fax you want to send to an email (in virtually any format) and email to faxnumber@fax.tnz.co.nz
The TFax server will convert the attachment to an fax image and deliver it to the recipient. See an example here.


Web to Fax
Simply Login to our website and create a Fax from the Launcher. Replies will be sent to your chosen email address!





Bulk Fax Sending / Broadcast Fax Messaging


Email to Fax
Attach the fax you want to send to an email (in virtually any format) and email to faxnumber@fax.tnz.co.nz
The TFax server will convert the attachment to an fax image and deliver it to the recipient.

There are four methods to send an electronic fax from your email using TFax.
See the following tutorials for more information.

Web to Fax
You can also use your TNZ Account to send faxes from your web browser. Need to create a fax to be sent to just a single number? Or an entire broadcast? This can all be done with ease.
Attach documents and Destination Lists like a normal email. No additional hardware or software, no fax servers, no stress.
Web-to-Fax provides full reporting and status notifications of the job, available right from your TNZ Account.

  fclose($fp);

  $request = array(
    'sender' => 'test@tnz.co.nz', // Your email address
