Buy Australian Number Online for Business
Buying an Australian business number online. Compare 1300, 1800 and Phoneword options, published plans from $10 per month, and add-ons priced separately.
Buying an Australian business number online comes down to three published choices: a 1300 number, an 1800 number, or a Phoneword. A 1300 number is a shared-cost business number with plans from $10 per month. An 1800 number is free for customers to call in the Australian 1800 context, with the business paying the call charges. A Phoneword spells a word on the keypad, priced from $40 per month with availability and desirability affecting the price. All three are bought through the same online path.
The facts to work with:
- 1300 and 1800 published plans run at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, ex GST. Standard plans are month-to-month with no lock-in.
- A Phoneword can use a 13, 1300 or 1800 number to spell a word; published pricing starts from $40 per month.
- Published add-ons: Call Tracking Numbers ($5/month), IVR Keypress Menu ($35/month) and Postcode Prompter ($250/month).
- Find a Number searches available 1300/1800 Phonewords before you commit to a word.
Which number suits which business decision
If callers should pay nothing, the 1800 number is the published toll-free option — common for support and service lines, with the business carrying the call charges. If a shared cost is acceptable, the 1300 number starts at $10 per month and is the standard business contact choice. If the number itself should carry the brand, a Phoneword turns the digits into a word — the premium tier, with its own pricing based on the word's desirability and availability. The buy an Australian number online overview compares all three in one place.
What the published plans include
The plan tables on the pricing page state the inclusions directly: for example, Cap39 includes 250 Fixed Line minutes plus 100 Mobile minutes per month, and with Cap plans the monthly fee is the only charge until the included value is used, then per-minute rates apply billed per second. Call rates differ by plan and caller type, so the honest method is to read the table for the tier you are considering rather than averaging across plans. All pricing is ex GST.
Practical points before you sign up
Sign-up asks for the number the service will connect to, so decide the answer point before you start. Add-ons are priced separately and can be considered at sign-up or later. Support contacts are 1300 327 934 and info@1300easydial.com.au if a question needs a person. What is not published: activation timeframes and porting arrangements — neither appears on this site, so this page makes no promise about either.

Buying for business questions
Should my business choose 1300 or 1800?
The caller cost is the difference. A 1300 number is shared-cost — callers pay a local call rate. An 1800 number is free for customers to call in the Australian 1800 context, with the business paying the charges. Both have plans from $10 per month, so the choice is about the caller experience rather than the entry price.
What does a business Phoneword cost?
Phoneword pricing starts from $40 per month, with availability and desirability affecting the price of a specific word. Premium numbers carry their own commercial terms — see the pricing page for the full breakdown.
Are the plans locked in?
Standard 1300 and 1800 plans are month-to-month with no lock-in. Phonewords are premium numbers with different contract terms, which are set out on the pricing page — check there before choosing a word.
Can I add call features later?
Three add-ons are published: Call Tracking Numbers at $5 per month, IVR Keypress Menu at $35 per month and Postcode Prompter at $250 per month, each described on the pricing page by its published purpose. This page does not claim any feature inclusions beyond what that page states.
