Select a Phone Number
Select a business phone number by comparing 1300, 1800 and Phoneword options, caller cost, current plans and word availability before buying.
How do you select a phone number?
Selecting a business phone number starts with the number category, not just the digits or word you prefer. 1300 Easy Dial offers 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords for Australian businesses. Each category has a different caller-cost and pricing consideration.
A 1300 number is presented as a shared-cost business number. An 1800 number is presented as free for callers in the stated Australian context, with the business paying call charges. A Phoneword can use a 13, 1300 or 1800 number to spell a word on the telephone keypad.

Published plan
1300 and 1800 public plans start at $10 per month. The applicable published call rates differ by plan.

Word availability
Search directly for a Phoneword. A word may not be available, and its availability and desirability can affect its price.
Selecting between 1300 and 1800
If caller cost is the key consideration, compare the two categories before deciding. The site presents 1300 as a shared-cost business number and 1800 as free for callers in the stated Australian context. Neither description is a promise about a particular customer’s circumstance, so use the category pages and current pricing when you need more detail.
Public 1300 and 1800 plans have the same published monthly starting point of $10, but each plan has its own listed landline and mobile rate. The pricing table is therefore more useful than a headline plan price on its own.
Selecting a Phoneword
If a word is important, use Find a Number to search available 1300 and 1800 Phonewords. Do not build a selection around a word until you have checked the current result. The search does not guarantee that a specific word can be purchased or will have a particular price.
Phoneword pricing starts from $40 per month. Compare that category-specific information with the 1300 or 1800 plan information rather than treating the options as identical.
Keep the selection and terms separate
Once you have narrowed the category and checked any Phoneword idea, review the current published terms before a purchase decision. The choice between 1300, 1800 and a Phoneword does not itself establish an activation timeframe, feature bundle, cancellation arrangement or portability outcome. Those topics need current, specific evidence rather than assumptions from the number category.
