      Hello, I will need a fax gateway for my webpage.
      I just need the Order not as an E-Mail I need it as a fax gateway. Could you do that for me? Im not sure how much work it is but I am willing to pay for it!

      My fax-machine: Samsung SCX-4726FN. Is it possible to realize such a fax gateway? Could not find anything in Google(WP-Plugin). As I said I need it urgently and I can pay for it like for the PayPal-Gateway or so. You can message me via my E-Mail if you want, too or Skype.
      Thanks so far! Cheers!

            the answer is that you need a email to faxgateway.
            there is no way to integrate something generic into the plugin as there are carrier costs involved and it depends on your country what would be the right/best option

            have a search on google for email2fax or similar

              I use interfax.net I simply add the fax number as an email in the BCC field in the wppizza settings. Once an order is placed Interfax will fax over the order to the store fax.

              Just make sure you can also receive emails on a tablet or smartphone or whatever. Sometimes faxes are out of paper or jammed, or there might be a phone outage in the area and you never know if an order came through.

              I hired a developer to create a call confirmation plugin as only the store owner receives the emails on his phone. Once an order is placed it makes a call to the shop so they know an online order was placed and tells them to go and check the fax machine.

                some fax gateways also require some sort of image attachment (for some reason) and / or the from address being set to something specific and a few other hoops….all doable though with what there is in the wppizza plugin

                  Yea. Interfax doesn’t require an attachment, but it does require an authorized FROM sender that you specify in your Interfax account profile. Simply set the authorized sender in the FROM field in wppizza and you’re good to go.
