How to send a fax from an Android phone (self.asklemmy)

I put in a credit card application for Bilt and they want address and id verification via fax. They really want me to send a fax apparently

Most of my documents are virtual now, and I don't have a fax machine. I see that on Google play there are a variety of apps for sending faxes. Is this a good option to go through? Or should I print stuff and find a library with a fax machine

The financial, legal and medical sectors are built on fax, I know that companies often use efax services.

This means that you email the efax provider, they turn the attached document into a fax and send it, then if the recipient uses an efax service the fax gets turned back into an attachment and emailed to the recipient.
