Send a fax with a cover page

A cover page tells the people at a busy fax machine who the fax is for. FastFax builds one for you, so you don't need a template.

What goes on the FastFax cover page

How to add it

  1. Upload or scan your pages on fastfax.app.
  2. On the fax number step, turn on Cover page and fill in the fields.
  3. The preview shows the cover page first, followed by your document.

The cover page counts as 1 page, so a 4-page document with a cover uses 5 page credits. It can be added to a fax of up to 100 pages.

When you should use one

Use a cover page for doctors' offices, hospitals, insurance companies, government offices and courts. Many of these share one fax machine across a department, and a cover page with an Attn line and a case, claim or account number in the subject helps it reach the right desk.

When you can skip it

If you're faxing to a person's own fax number, or the form you're sending already has their name and your details on page one, a cover page isn't needed.
