Australia 1300 Numbers
Australia 1300 numbers explained. What a 1300 number is, what callers pay, published plans from $10 per month and how to search available numbers online.
In Australia, a 1300 number is a shared-cost business number: callers pay a local call rate and the business pays the per-minute call charges on its plan. 1300 Easy Dial provides 1300 numbers for Australian businesses on published plans starting at $10 per month, and you can search available 1300/1800 Phonewords on Find a Number before you sign up.
What a 1300 number is
A 1300 number begins with the 1300 prefix, and the caller dials it like any other Australian number. It gives your business one published contact point that is answered on the phone you nominate — the sign-up flow asks for the number the service will connect to, so you keep answering calls on the phone you use now.
The shared-cost structure is the defining feature. The caller contributes a local call rate and your business carries the call charges, which is why 1300 numbers are common for service businesses that publish one number Australia-wide.
What callers pay, and what you pay
Callers pay a local call rate to dial a 1300 number. Your business pays the per-minute call charges under its plan — rates are per minute, billed per second. With Cap plans, the monthly fee is the only charge until the included value is used, and then per-minute rates apply. If you would rather remove the caller charge entirely, that is the 1800 number model, where callers pay nothing in the stated Australian context.
1300 plans in Australia
Published 1300 plans run at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, with the $39 tier offered in Cap39, Fixed Cap39 and Mobile Cap39 variants. For example, Cap39 includes 250 Fixed Line minutes plus 100 Mobile minutes each month. The pricing page holds the full plan table — monthly fees, included value and the current call rates — and is the source to use rather than an estimate. Standard plans are month-to-month with no lock-in. All pricing is ex GST.
