Get a 1300 Number in Australia

To get a 1300 number in Australia through this site: choose a 1300 number, search what is available, pick a plan, and sign up. A 1300 number is a shared-cost business number — callers pay a local call cost and the business pays the remainder — and published plans start at $10 per month. Here is each step with its published detail, plus the points where confirmation with the team is the real answer.

Step 1: confirm a 1300 is the right type

A 1300 number suits a business that wants callers to pay only a local call cost while the business carries the remainder. If callers should pay nothing instead, an 1800 number is the alternative; if the number should spell a word, a Phoneword on a 1300 base is the option, from $40 per month. The buy a 1300 number overview carries the full decision detail.

Step 2: search availability

Use Find a Number to search available numbers — the published hint is to enter the last six digits of the 1300 number or the word you have in mind, without the prefix. Results show the current available listing. They are a snapshot, not a reservation: the team confirms the exact number and any word-specific price before connection.

Step 3: choose a plan

Published 1300 plans sit at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month. Each carries its own call-rate table on the pricing page — rates differ between fixed line and mobile callers, and the Cap plans list included minute allowances. Match the plan to the call volume and device mix you expect rather than to the monthly fee alone.

Step 4: sign up with your answering point ready

The signup flow asks for the number the service will connect to. That answering point is yours to nominate. No activation timeframe is published on the current pages, so if timing matters, confirm it with the team via contact us before signing up. Service terms are governed by the terms and conditions.
