Buy a Business Phone Number in Australia

Buying a business phone number in Australia is a three-part purchase: the number type, the specific number, and the plan that carries it. On 1300 Easy Dial the published types are 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords, with plans from $10 per month — and the honest notes up front are that availability of a specific number is never promised in advance, and the buy a business phone number overview carries the full buying guidance.

Choose the type by caller cost

The type is the biggest cost decision because it sets what callers pay:

1300: shared cost — the caller pays a local call cost and the business pays the remainder. The everyday choice for most businesses.
1800: free for callers in the stated Australian 1800-number context; the business pays the call charges. Suited to support and service lines.
Phoneword: a 13, 1300 or 1800 number spelling a word on the keypad, from $40 per month with availability and desirability affecting the price.

Find an available number

The Find a Number search lists available 1300 and 1800 Phonewords. The published hint: enter the word or the last six digits, without the 1300 or 1800 prefix. A search result is a snapshot of the current listing — it does not reserve the number, and the team confirms the exact number and price before connection.

Compare plans, then sign up

Published 1300 and 1800 plans sit at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, each with its own call-rate table on the pricing page — Cap plans list included minute allowances, while Prepaid and Light list call credit. Signup asks for the number the service will connect to, so have your answering point ready. Service terms such as billing and cancellation are governed by the terms and conditions.

What buying here does not settle

No activation timeframe is published on the current pages — ask the team for current timing. Transferring an existing number is not covered by the published purchase pages; raise any transfer with the team before assuming it. And no specific word is guaranteed available at a specific price until the team confirms it at connection.
