Smart Numbers Australia Providers
Comparing smart number providers in Australia? Judge them on published plan prices, Phoneword pricing and availability — here is what 1300 Easy Dial publishes.
Comparing smart number providers in Australia comes down to published facts you can check: which number types are offered, what plans cost, how Phonewords are priced and how availability is handled. This page sets out what 1300 Easy Dial publishes against that checklist — it does not rank competitors, because no evidence for a ranking is published here.
The provider checklist
- Number types: 1300 numbers (shared cost, plans from $10 per month), 1800 numbers (free for callers in the stated Australian 1800-number context; the business pays call charges) and Phonewords — a 13, 1300 or 1800 number spelling a word on the keypad.
- Phoneword pricing: starts from $40 per month, with availability and desirability affecting the price of a specific word. No fixed range is published.
- Availability: search available 1300/1800 Phonewords — but availability is not guaranteed for any specific word.
- Plan detail: monthly fees and per-minute call-rate tables are published on the pricing page, so plans can be compared line by line rather than on marketing summaries.
- Terms: service obligations are in the current terms and conditions.
What a smart number is, briefly
A smart number is an inbound business number — in this context, a 1300, 1800 or 13-based number, optionally chosen as a Phoneword so the digits spell a brand word. Caller cost depends on the base: a 1300 base is shared cost, while an 1800 base is free for callers in the stated Australian context. Because the number is the customer-facing asset, its memorability and availability are the main differentiators between individual numbers — and the reason Phoneword prices vary.

How to compare before you commit
- Shortlist words, not providers first: search Find a Number to see what kinds of numbers are listed and check the pricing page for plan fees.
- Read rate tables: per-minute call rates differ by plan and caller type; published tables beat estimates.
- Check obligations: billing, suspension and cancellation are governed by the terms, not by advertising claims.
- Ask what is not published: anything the pages do not establish — activation timing, feature inclusion — is a question for the team on 1300 327 934.
Smart number provider questions
Which smart number provider is best?
This site publishes no ranking and makes no best-provider claim. Compare providers on published facts: number types offered, plan fees, call-rate tables, Phoneword pricing and how availability is confirmed.
What do Phonewords cost with 1300 Easy Dial?
From $40 per month, with availability and desirability affecting the price of a specific word. No range or licence fee is published beyond that.
Are smart numbers the same as Phonewords?
Not exactly. A smart number is the inbound business number itself; a Phoneword is a 13, 1300 or 1800 number chosen so the digits spell a word on the keypad.
Can I check availability before signing up?
You can search available 1300/1800 Phonewords on Find a Number, but availability is not guaranteed for any specific word until confirmed.
