"Virtual numbers for business" usually means an inbound contact number that is not tied to a physical line. That is close to what 1300 Easy Dial publishes: 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords — inbound Australian business numbers with plans from $10 per month, connected to the answering point you nominate at signup. What it does not publish is virtual-mobile or SMS-number services, so those variants of the query are outside what this page can answer.

The published facts:

  • 1300 number: a shared-cost business number; public plans start at $10 per month.
  • 1800 number: free for customers to call in the stated Australian 1800-number context; the business pays the call charges.
  • Phoneword: a 13, 1300 or 1800 number that spells a word on the keypad, from $40 per month, with availability and desirability affecting the price.
  • Connection: the signup flow asks for the number the service will connect to — the answering point your calls reach.

What "virtual" gives a business, in published terms

The practical value businesses look for is a stable published contact point that reaches the right answering point, whatever changes behind it. An inbound 1300 or 1800 number provides exactly that in its published form: customers dial one number, and the answering point nominated during signup receives the calls. Details about devices, apps or mobile-specific behaviour are not part of the published material, so this page does not claim them.

If the label "virtual" is central to your decision, compare the things these pages can actually confirm: caller cost, plan price, memorability and the connection step.

Getting one from 1300 Easy Dial

Search available 1300/1800 Phonewords if memorability matters, then complete signup with your answering point ready. Availability is not guaranteed for any specific word. Plan fees and call-rate tables are on the pricing page, and service obligations are set out in the terms and conditions.

Virtual numbers for business — questions

Are 1300 and 1800 numbers virtual numbers?

The published pages describe them as inbound business numbers connected through the signup flow's answering-point question; "virtual" is not a product term they use. Judge the published facts — caller cost, plans and connection — rather than the label.

Can I get a virtual mobile number or SMS number?

Not here. The published products are 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords; virtual-mobile and SMS-number services are not part of the published range.

What do business numbers cost per month?

Published 1300 and 1800 plans start at $10 per month. Phonewords start from $40 per month, with availability and desirability affecting the price of a specific word.

Do I need a physical office to have one?

The signup flow asks for the number the service will connect to — your answering point. The published pages do not establish office or premises requirements, so contact the team if your setup is unusual.
