Buy 1300 Number Australia Setup

Setting up a 1300 number in published steps: search what is available, compare plans from $10 per month, then nominate the answer point your calls connect to.

Setting up a 1300 number follows the published path: pick the number, pick the plan, and give the answering point at sign-up. A 1300 number is a shared-cost number — callers pay a local call rate and the business pays the per-minute rate under its plan. Published plans start at $10 per month, month-to-month with no lock-in, ex GST. No activation timeframe is published on this site, so this page describes the arrangement — not a schedule.

Step 1: choose the number style

Decide first between a standard numeric 1300 and a Phoneword. The numeric option is the straightforward shared-cost business number. A Phoneword spells a word on the telephone keypad using the 1300 range, so the number can carry the business name. Phonewords are premium numbers with separate published terms, priced from $40 per month with availability and desirability affecting the price. Either way, start at Find a Number to search the available 1300/1800 Phoneword range — a search shows current availability but does not promise that a particular number is available or at a particular price.

Step 2: compare the plans

The published 1300 plans are $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month. They differ in included call credit and per-minute rates, so the sensible comparison is your expected call volume and line mix against each tier. With the Cap tiers, the monthly fee is the only charge until the included value is used, then per-minute rates apply, billed per second. All published prices are ex GST, and standard plans are month-to-month with no lock-in. The current fees and call-rate tables live on the pricing page; the plan comparison page lines the tiers up side by side.

Step 3: connect the service

The sign-up flow asks for the number the service will connect to — the answering point your new 1300 number rings. That is the published connection detail; this page does not extend it into claims about routing configurations, devices or coverage. If you want a question answered before signing up, the team is reachable on 1300 327 934 or at info@1300easydial.com.au.

What setup does not include, on this record

Legacy copy promised setup in a fixed number of business days and bundled feature lists — call recording, voicemail-to-email, SMS notifications. Neither the timeframe nor those features are reconciled in the published record, so this page claims none of them; treat capabilities that matter to you as questions to ask the team, not inclusions to assume. The terms and conditions govern the service itself.

How long does setup take?

No activation timeframe is published on this site, so this page does not state one. If timing is critical to your launch, ask the team on 1300 327 934 before committing.

What does it cost to buy a 1300 number?

Standard numeric 1300 plans run $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, ex GST, month-to-month with no lock-in. Phonewords on the 1300 range are premium numbers with their own published terms on the pricing page.

What do I need ready before I start?

A shortlist of numbers from Find a Number and the answering point — the number the service will connect to, which sign-up asks for. Both make the plan choice concrete.

Is a 1300 or an 1800 number the better setup?

The documented difference is who pays the caller: a 1300 is shared-cost with the caller paying a local call rate, while an 1800 is free for callers in the stated Australian context. Both start on published plans at $10 per month, so the choice is about the caller experience you want — this page does not claim either setup performs better.

Can I set up the number before choosing a plan?

The published flow runs in the other order: the number is carried on a plan, so the plan comparison comes first and the answering point is captured at sign-up. Start with the pricing page and the number search.
