Buy Your Own Phone Number
Buying your own business phone number — choose from available 1300, 1800 and Phoneword numbers, plans from $10 a month, and what owning one means.
Buying your own phone number here means selecting a 1300 number, 1800 number or Phoneword that becomes your business's published contact point, paired with a monthly plan — published plans start at $10 per month, Phoneword pricing from $40 per month. The number is the thing you choose; the plan is the arrangement that governs what you pay; and the signup flow connects the number to the answering point you nominate. What "own" means in practice — and what it does not — is worth being precise about before you buy.
What is yours when you buy
The number itself, as your business's inbound contact point: the digits customers dial, the word they spell if it is a Phoneword, and the caller-cost treatment of the prefix (1300 presented as shared cost; 1800 as caller-free in the stated Australian context with the business paying the call charges). Your choices shape it — the prefix family, the six digits after it, and whether those digits spell a word. The service relationship around the number is governed by the current terms and conditions, which is the document to read rather than any summary, including mine.
Choosing the number
If digits are fine, any available number works. If the number should mean something, search the word at Find a Number: by word or digits, filtered to the 1300 or 1800 prefix, with each result's displayed price or "price on request". Two boundaries the search states by design: availability is not guaranteed for a specific word, and desirable words are priced higher. Bring alternatives; the search shows what is listed, not what is reserved.
Keeping a number you already have
A different question, with a deliberately short answer here: moving an existing business number to this service is a porting arrangement, and this site's approved material does not establish porting arrangements or qualifications. The general FAQ page mentions porting, but without operational confirmation this page will not summarise or promise it. If keeping your current number is the reason you are reading, put the question directly to the team on 1300 327 934 or info@1300easydial.com.au before making any plan comparisons.
What you are not buying
No phone line or hardware — line rental stays with your existing carrier, and the answering point is your own phone service. No mobile number — the published range is inbound business numbers. And no guaranteed outcome — more calls, more sales, better recall are things a number can support, not things a purchase promises. The honest version of "my own number" is: my published contact point, my plan, my answering point.
Owning a number: questions
Can I choose my own number or word?
Within what is available. Search Phonewords by word or digits at Find a Number, filter by 1300 or 1800, and check each result's displayed price. Availability is not guaranteed, and desirability moves the price.
Can I move my existing business number here?
Porting is not established in this site's approved material, so no promise is made here. Ask the team directly about your number before comparing plans.
What does my own number cost per month?
Published 1300 and 1800 plans run at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, each with its own call-rate table on the pricing page. Phoneword pricing starts from $40 per month. Prices are in Australian dollars and include GST.
Do I own the phone line too?
No. The published products are the inbound number and the plan; the phone service you connect calls to remains your existing arrangement.
