Australia Numbers
Australia numbers for business. Compare 1300, 1800 and Phoneword options, caller costs and plans from $10 per month, and search available numbers online.
For Australian businesses, the inbound number options at 1300 Easy Dial are 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords. The practical difference between them is who pays for the call and whether the number spells a word. All three are answered on the phone you nominate — the sign-up flow asks for the number the service will connect to.
1800
Free for Australian callers
Callers pay nothing in the stated Australian 1800-number context; the business pays the call charges. Plans from $10 per month.
Phoneword
A word on the keypad
A 13, 1300 or 1800 number that spells a word. Pricing starts from $40 per month, with availability and desirability affecting the price.
Choosing between the number types
Start with the caller's experience. If a free call for your customers is the priority, the 1800 range removes the caller charge in the stated Australian context. If a shared-cost number suits your call profile better, the 1300 range is the standard business option and callers contribute a local call rate. If the number itself should carry your brand — a business name or service word people can read and dial — a Phoneword sits on either range.
Availability shapes the decision more than anything else. Desirable words and digit patterns are finite, so search before you build marketing around a number: the Find a Number search shows available 1300/1800 Phonewords by word or by the last six digits. It does not reserve a number or promise a price for a specific one.
Plans for Australian business numbers
Published 1300 and 1800 plans start at $10 per month, with tiers at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month. The pricing page lists each tier's monthly fee, included value and call rates — rates are per minute, billed per second. Standard plans are month-to-month with no lock-in; premium Phoneword numbers carry separate terms published on that page. All pricing is ex GST.
Getting an Australian business number
- Search: check available numbers on Find a Number and shortlist two or three.
- Compare plans: match the monthly fee and call rates on the pricing page to your expected call volume.
- Sign up: confirm your number, choose the plan, and give the number the service will connect to — that phone answers calls to the new number.
