New Business Phone Number Online

Yes — a new business phone number can be organised online end to end: you search available numbers, compare the published plans and sign up through the site. Published plans start at $10 per month ex GST, and the sign-up flow asks for the number the service will connect to — the phone your business answers. The team is also reachable on 1300 327 934 if you want to confirm details first.

What each online step covers, and what it does not:

Search: what is available

Find a Number searches available 1300/1800 Phonewords, so a new business can check whether a word version of its name exists before committing to a plain number. A search result is not a reservation — the exact number and price are confirmed before you connect, so keep it off printed materials until then.

If a plain number suits you better, the 1300 and 1800 options do not depend on a word search — the choice there is between the shared-cost 1300 and the toll-free 1800.

Compare: what it costs

The pricing page lists the published 1300 and 1800 plans — $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month, ex GST — with call rates and included minutes or call credit for each tier. Standard plans are month-to-month with no lock-in. Phonewords start from $40 per month; they are premium numbers with different terms, which the same page sets out.

Sign up: what is asked of you

The flow asks for the number the service will connect to. Have the phone you will answer ready, your plan choice made and, for a Phoneword, a shortlist of words in case the first preference is unavailable. The three published add-ons — Call Tracking Numbers, IVR Keypress Menu and Postcode Prompter — can be added during sign-up or changed later from the online console.

What the online flow does not establish

No activation timeframe is published on this site, so none can be quoted here — confirm timing with the team if the number has to be live for a launch. Availability of a specific word is likewise never promised in advance. If a claim you have read elsewhere is not on the current published pages, treat it as unverified.
