Get a Phone Number

Getting a phone number the way this site supports it — a 1300, 1800 or Phoneword for an Australian business — and the number types this site does not offer.

Person comparing information on a smartphone

"Get a phone number" resolves here to getting a business number, because that is what this site publishes: a 1300 number, an 1800 number or a Phoneword for an Australian business. The getting is the same three moves for each — search or arrange the number, choose a plan row, apply with your answer point — and then the team confirms the exact number and price before connection.

The three paths

1300

Shared cost

Callers pay a local call cost; the business pays the remainder. Published plans start at $10 per month.

1800

Free for callers

Callers pay nothing in the stated Australian context; the business carries the charges under its plan.

Phoneword

A word on the keypad

Up to six letters on a 1300 or 1800 base, from $40 per month with availability and desirability affecting the word.
