Buy a 1800 Number Setup
Buy an 1800 number and set it up in published steps: search availability, compare plans from $10 per month, then nominate the answer point at sign-up.
Buying an 1800 number and setting it up follows the published path: pick the number, pick the plan, and give the answer point at sign-up. An 1800 number is free for callers to dial in the stated Australian 1800-number context, and the business pays the call charges. Published plans start at $10 per month, month-to-month with no lock-in. No activation timeframe is published on this site, so this page describes the flow — not a schedule.
Step 1: choose the number style
Decide first between a standard numeric 1800 and a Phoneword. The numeric option is the straightforward toll-free number most Australian callers recognise. A Phoneword spells a word on the telephone keypad using the 1800 range, so the number can carry the business name. Phonewords are premium numbers with separate pricing. 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 1800 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. All published prices are ex GST, and standard 1800 plans are month-to-month with no lock-in. The current fees and call-rate tables live on the pricing page; check there rather than relying on figures quoted anywhere else.
Step 3: connect the service
The sign-up flow asks for the number the service will connect to — the answer point your new 1800 number points to. That is the published connection detail; this page does not extend it into claims about routing configurations, devices or coverage.

How long does the 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 an 1800 number?
Standard numeric 1800 plans run $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, ex GST, month-to-month with no lock-in. Phonewords on the 1800 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 answer point — the number the service will connect to, which sign-up asks for. Both make the plan choice concrete.
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 connection detail is captured at sign-up. Start with the pricing page and the number search.
What if I want a word instead of digits?
Search the Phoneword range first, because availability varies. Phonewords on the 1800 range are premium numbers with their own published terms — different from the standard numeric plans this page describes — so check the pricing page before comparing them with a numeric 1800.
