Buy a Phone Number Online
Buying a business number online means choosing a 1300, 1800 or Phoneword, checking availability and picking a plan from $10 per month. See how the flow works.
What you can buy online from 1300 Easy Dial
You can buy a business phone number online here, but be clear about the type: the published products are 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords — inbound business numbers, not personal mobile or SIM-only plans. If you searched for a "cell phone number", what most businesses actually need is one memorable contact number that answers on the phone they already use, and that is what these products do.
The buy a phone number overview walks through the categories. In short: a 1300 number is a shared-cost business number, an 1800 number is free for Australian callers to dial with the business paying call charges, and a Phoneword spells a word on the telephone keypad using a 13, 1300 or 1800 number.
How buying online works
- Search availability. Use Find a Number to search available 1300/1800 Phonewords. It shows what you can search for, but availability of a specific word is not guaranteed until confirmed.
- Choose a plan. The pricing page lists published monthly fees and call-rate tables. Plans start at $10 per month for 1300 and 1800 numbers; Phoneword pricing starts from $40 per month, with desirability and availability affecting the price.
- Sign up and connect. The sign-up flow asks for the number the service will connect to, so calls to your new number are answered on a phone you already use.
There is no separate handset or SIM to arrange. The number is the product; the answering phone stays yours.
What it costs to buy
The monthly plan fee and the per-minute call rates are published separately, and both belong in your comparison. A cheap plan with high call rates can cost more than a higher-fee plan for the same call volume, which is why the pricing page keeps the two tables visible rather than quoting a single total. Prices are shown in Australian dollars.
Optional add-ons are listed on the pricing page: Call Tracking Numbers ($5 per month) to see which ads and campaigns drive calls, an IVR Keypress Menu ($35 per month) that routes callers by keypress, and a Postcode Prompter ($250 per month) that routes callers by the postcode they dial in from.
Before you buy
Check the current terms and conditions — they govern the service. And if you are not sure which number type suits your callers, contact the team on 1300 327 934 before purchasing rather than after; changing expectations later is harder than choosing well up front.
Buying questions
Can I buy a mobile phone number here?
No. The published products are inbound business numbers — 1300, 1800 and Phonewords — that answer on an existing phone you nominate. Separate mobile SIM services are not something the published information here establishes.
How much does it cost to buy a number?
Published 1300 and 1800 plans start at $10 per month and Phonewords start from $40 per month. Call rates depend on the plan, so read the pricing page tables rather than estimating.
Can I choose the exact number?
You can search available 1300/1800 Phonewords with Find a Number. Availability and price for a specific word are confirmed through the search and sign-up process, not promised in advance.
Do I need a new phone?
No. The sign-up flow asks for the number the service will connect to, and that existing phone answers your calls.
Is buying online the only option?
You can also talk to the team on 1300 327 934 or use contact us if you would rather confirm options before signing up online.
