Phone Names

Promote Your Business with a Phone Name

Create Brand Awareness. Increase Business Presence. Be 5x More Memorable.

Phone names are 13, 1300 and 1800 numbers that spell the name of the business through the alphanumeric keypad. They're a fantastic way of continually promoting the business name through the company's telephone number. Rather than remembering a sequence of numbers, customers only have to remember the business name.

The numbers are sold by ACMA (Australian Communications and Media Authority) which manages and administers all the numbers. Business 1300 offers a FREE Search and Advice service to help you find the right phone name for your business. We'll search the ACMA database for an available number that best suits your needs, and then if you decide to go ahead, purchase it on your behalf.
