Buy a Phone Number for Your Business
Buying a phone number here means 1300, 1800 or Phoneword on a published plan. The three components of the purchase and the checks before you sign up.
To buy a phone number for a business on this site is to buy three things together: the number — a 1300 number, 1800 number or Phoneword — the monthly plan that carries it, and its connection to the answering point you nominate. Plans start at $10 per month; word numbers start from $40. This page is the buying checklist: what to settle, in what order, and which confirmations only the team can give.
Settle the type before the digits
The type decides the caller experience for the life of the number. 1300 is shared cost — the caller pays a local call cost and the business pays the remainder. 1800 is free for callers in the stated Australian 1800-number context. The word format rides on either base: a Phoneword spells a word on the keypad, with availability and desirability affecting its price. If the comparison needs detail, the buy a phone number overview carries it.
Check availability honestly
The Find a Number search lists available 1300 and 1800 Phonewords — search the word or the last six digits without the prefix. Results are a snapshot of the current listing, not a reservation and not a promise: the exact number and any word-specific price are confirmed with the team before connection. Buying well means treating that confirmation as the real availability answer.
Match the plan to the calls
Published 1300 and 1800 plans sit at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, each with its own rate table on the pricing page — fixed line and mobile rates differ per plan, Cap plans list included minute allowances, and the Prepaid and Light tiers list call credit. Compare the plan rows against expected call volume and device mix rather than the fee alone. This page quotes published figures without calculating examples.
Finish with the terms and the connection point
Signup asks for the number the service will connect to — have the answering point ready so the purchase completes in one session. Read the terms and conditions for billing and cancellation before buying; they govern the service, not this page. And note the honest gap: no activation timeframe is published on the current pages, so confirm timing with the team when it matters.

Buying a phone number: questions
How much does it cost to buy a phone number?
1300 and 1800 plans start at $10 per month and Phonewords from $40 per month, plus each plan's published call rates. The full ladder is on the pricing page.
Can I buy a number without a plan?
No — the published model bundles the number with a monthly plan; the plan is the running cost. Compare plans on the pricing page before choosing.
What happens after I pay?
The team confirms the exact number and connects it to the answering point you nominated at signup. Activation timing is not published on the current pages — ask the team for current timing.
Can I buy a mobile number instead?
No. Mobile-network numbers are not published products on this site; the published formats are 1300, 1800, 13 and their Phoneword variants.
