What business phone number options are available?

1300 Easy Dial offers 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords for Australian businesses. The useful first comparison is the category, not a promised outcome from having a particular number. A 1300 number is presented as a shared-cost business number. An 1800 number is presented as free for callers in the stated Australian context, while the business pays call charges.

A Phoneword is a different kind of choice: it can use a 13, 1300 or 1800 number to spell a word on a telephone keypad. It is worth considering only when the word itself matters to the decision. Availability and desirability affect the price of a Phoneword, so a word should be searched rather than assumed.

Choose based on the decision you need to make

If caller cost is central to the decision, compare the 1300 and 1800 category descriptions first. If the public monthly fee and call rates are central, use the current pricing page. If a word is central, search it at Find a Number before treating it as an option.

These are separate checks. A Phoneword search result is not a promise that the word can be reserved, purchased or supplied at a particular price. Similarly, a published plan fee is not a forecast of a business’s total bill. Keep the source that answers each question separate.

Use published information for the final comparison

The public 1300 and 1800 plans have monthly fees of $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99. Exact call-rate tables vary by plan. The Prepaid and Light plans each list $5 call credit, and the pricing page states that prices are Australian dollars and include GST.

Read the current pricing table before choosing, because public prices and rates can change. For service and billing conditions, use the terms and conditions rather than extending a general comparison into a contract or service claim.

What the options page cannot confirm

This comparison does not establish a setup timeframe, reservation result, portability outcome, coverage claim or included feature. It also does not claim that one category will produce more calls, sales or recognition. It is a decision guide for the available categories, with the search, pricing and terms pages used for the specific facts.
