Two business owners reviewing costs together

Getting a business number here has a published cost structure: 1300 and 1800 plans at $10, $15, $39, $79 or $99 per month, and a Phoneword from $40 per month plus a $50 setup, subject to number selection and availability. Standard plans are month-to-month with no lock-in; all pricing is ex GST. This page sets out those published prices and stops where the record stops — no estimates, no per-word price list, no calculated totals.

Plan costs

Published 1300 and 1800 plans sit at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month. The $39 tier comes in Cap39, Fixed Cap39 and Mobile Cap39 variants — Cap39, for example, includes 250 Fixed Line minutes plus 100 Mobile minutes every month, and with Cap plans the monthly fee is the only charge until the included value is used, then per-minute rates apply. Call rates are per minute, billed per second, and differ per plan; the full per-minute tables are on the pricing page.

Phoneword cost

A Phoneword — a 13, 1300 or 1800 number spelling a word — starts from $40 per month, with the desirability and availability of the word affecting the price. Premium numbers carry a one-off $50 setup, subject to number selection and availability, and run on a 12-month rolling contract. There is no published per-word price list: the exact number and price are confirmed with you before connection, which is the published way a word gets its final figure.

  • Postcode Prompter, $250 per month: route callers by the postcode they dial in from.

Contracts in plain terms

  • Standard 1300 and 1800 plans are month-to-month with no lock-in.
  • Premium numbers — Phonewords and other premium selections from $40 per month — run on a 12-month rolling contract with the $50 setup.
  • All pricing is ex GST. Service terms are governed by the terms and conditions rather than summarised here.

What is not published

  • A per-word price list — word prices follow the desirability rule and are confirmed before connection.
  • An activation timeframe — the record does not state one, so this page cannot price time against it.
  • Cost comparisons with other providers — none are made here.
