1300 Number Price: What You and Your Callers Pay

The price of a 1300 number is a published fact, not a negotiation: plans run $10 to $99 a month, callers contribute up to the local call rate, and call time beyond your plan's inclusions bills per second at the plan's rate. Here is the price list and the two lines of fine print that matter.

The price list

| Plan | Monthly fee | Includes | |---|---|---| | Prepaid 1300 | $10 | $5 call credit | | Light 1300 | $15 | $5 call credit | | Cap39 tier | $39 | Included fixed-line and/or mobile minutes | | Cap79 1300 | $79 | 750 fixed-line + 300 mobile minutes | | High Volume 1300 | $99 | $99 call credit |

All prices exclude GST. The current per-minute rates for each plan — charged per second, differentiated for fixed-line and mobile origins — are on the pricing page, alongside every inclusion.

The fine print that matters

First: cap inclusions are the real price lever. On a cap plan, the monthly fee is the only charge until the included value runs out — so the plan you pick, matched to real call volume, sets your actual bill. A business inside its Cap39 inclusions pays $39; the same business overrunning them pays the per-minute rate on the excess.

Second: the caller pays part of every call. The 1300 design shares the cost — up to the local call rate from the caller, the balance from your plan. That is the structural reason 1300 runs cheaper than 1800 at volume; the comparison is in 1300 vs 1800 numbers, and the full cost model in 1300 number cost and pricing.

The premium exception

Standard numbers all cost the same to run. The one price jump worth knowing is phonewords — memorable numbers spelling a brand word — a premium tier from $40 a month, sourced separately when the spelling is scarce: phonewords has the mechanics.
