13 Phone Number

What a 13 number is and what 1300 Easy Dial actually publishes — Phonewords can use a 13 number, while listed plans cover 1300 and 1800 numbers.

A 13 number is the short six-digit member of Australia's inbound smart-number family, alongside 1300 and 1800 numbers. 1300 Easy Dial's published product pages cover 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords — and a Phoneword can use a 13, 1300 or 1800 number to spell a word on the telephone keypad. Whether a standalone 13 number (rather than a Phoneword on a 13 base) is offered is not established on the published pages, so that specific question is one to raise with the team on 1300 327 934.

What the published pages establish:

  • Phoneword base: a Phoneword can use a 13, 1300 or 1800 number to spell a word on the keypad, from $40 per month with availability and desirability affecting the price.
  • 1300 plans: a shared-cost business number, with public plans starting at $10 per month.
  • 1800 plans: free for customers to call in the stated Australian 1800-number context; the business pays the call charges. Plans also start at $10 per month.
  • Search: Find a Number searches available 1300/1800 Phonewords; availability is not guaranteed for any specific word.

Choosing between the number types

If memorability is the goal, a Phoneword is the published route to a word-based number here, whether the base is a 13, 1300 or 1800 number. If the digits themselves matter less, compare a 1300 number (shared cost) against an 1800 number (caller-free in the stated Australian context) on the pricing page, where plan fees and call-rate tables are listed in full.

For background on how these families compare, see 1300 numbers and 1800 numbers, or the generated overview at 1300 phone words.
