How Payment Works
Pay-on-success guarantee
When you submit your fax:- Authorization hold placed - A temporary hold reserves the fax amount
- Fax transmission attempted - PayPerFax sends your fax (with automatic retries)
- Success: Hold becomes a charge ✅
- Failure: Hold is released, you pay $0 ✅
About authorization holds
An authorization hold is a temporary reservation of funds (like hotels or gas stations use). Important to know:- Not an immediate charge
- Only becomes a charge if fax succeeds
- Released if fax fails (typically 1-7 days depending on your bank)
Why do I see a charge when my fax failed?
Why do I see a charge when my fax failed?
You’re seeing the authorization hold, not an actual charge.
- Check your statement: Look for “pending” or “authorization” status
- Wait 1-7 business days for the hold to clear from your account
- The delay is controlled by your bank, not PayPerFax
Can I use a prepaid card?
