Purchase a Business Phone Number
Before you purchase a business phone number, compare the whole cost — plan tiers from $10, call rates by origin and Phoneword prices — and what signup asks.
Purchasing a business phone number here is a short transaction in front of a longer-running cost, so the purchase decision is really a cost-structure decision. What you buy is a 1300 number, 1800 number or Phoneword plus a monthly plan — published plans start at $10 per month — and what you keep paying is the plan fee plus the call rates attached to it. The signup flow itself asks one configuration question: the existing number the service will connect your calls to.
The cost layers of the purchase
- The plan fee: published 1300 and 1800 plans run at $10, $15, $39, $79 and $99 per month.
- The call rates: each plan pairs its fee with a rate table that sets separate per-minute rates for landline-originated and mobile-originated calls — on the pricing page.
- The number's own price: for a Phoneword, from $40 per month and upward with desirability. For a standard 1300 or 1800 number, no separate number price is published — only the plan prices appear.
Compare the layers together. A $10 plan with higher per-minute rates can cost more over a year than a $39 plan with lower ones — which one wins depends entirely on how many calls you receive and where they originate. Prices are in Australian dollars and include GST.
Choices that change the price
The prefix changes caller cost (1300 shared cost; 1800 caller-free in the stated Australian context with the business paying the charges), the word changes the number's price (a desirable Phoneword costs more, and availability is not guaranteed), and the plan tier changes the rates. Nothing else in the published material moves the price, so treat any other claimed variable with suspicion.
The purchase itself
Search Find a Number first if a word matters: results show what is listed with each number's displayed price or "price on request", filtered by 1300 or 1800. The search is not a reservation. Then complete the signup flow with your answering point ready. If anything about the number, the plan or the connection is unclear, 1300 327 934 and info@1300easydial.com.au are the published contacts.
Diligence before paying
Read the current terms and conditions before committing — contract length, billing, suspension and termination obligations live there, and this page will not summarise them because the published summaries conflict on at least one point. Confirm your answering point. Check the word's availability in the search rather than assuming it. And compare plan tables rather than headline fees. That is the whole checklist; there is no hidden step.
Purchasing questions
What is the total cost of owning a business number?
Plan fee plus call charges, month to month, plus the number's own price if it is a Phoneword. Published plans run from $10 to $99 per month; each plan's call-rate table is on the pricing page.
Is there a contract when I purchase?
Contract and termination terms are governed by the current terms and conditions — read them directly rather than relying on marketing summaries, including this page.
Can I purchase online without calling anyone?
The signup flow is online and asks for the answering point to connect. The number search is also online. Whether your situation needs a conversation first is your call, not a requirement stated in the published material.
What if the number I want is taken?
Try a shorter or similar word in the search, or ask the team what is currently available. Availability is not guaranteed for any specific word.
