FAQs

Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers.

Why do I need a business name?

A business name lets you trade under a name other than your own - for example, “Sydney Coffee Co.” instead of “Ben Smith”.

It helps you build a professional brand, and appear legitimate to customers. Without a registered business name, you can only trade under your personal or company name.

How much does it cost to register a business name?

Our pricing includes ASIC fees - there are no additional hidden costs.

$199 for 1 year, or $297 for 3 years (that’s only $99 per year). We handle the full registration, send you a confirmation email, Certificate of Registration and ASIC Key once approved.

How long does registration take?

You’ll receive a confirmation email straight away once your business name is registered. It can take up to 10 business days for your name to appear publicly on the ASIC website.

Do I need an ABN before registering a business name?

Yes - ASIC requires you to have an active ABN linked to the business name.

If you don’t have one yet, you can register your Sole Trader ABN first through our website (takes under 10 minutes) and get your business name registered at the same time.

What do I get when I register a business name?

You’ll receive a confirmation email straight away, followed by a Certificate of Registration and ASIC Key once your business name is active. This confirms your business name is officially registered and ready to use for invoicing, marketing, and more.

Can I renew or extend my business name later?

Yes - you’ll get renewal reminders before expiry. Choosing the 3-year option ($297) is more cost-effective and saves you from renewing each year.

What if my preferred name is taken?

Our system checks ASIC’s register instantly. If your name is unavailable, we’ll let you know so you can adjust or try another variation (e.g. add a location or descriptor).

What’s the difference between an ABN and a business name?

An ABN identifies your business, while a business name is the name under which you trade.

If you want to operate under a name different from your own legal name, you must register a business name separately with ASIC.

Does a business name registration protect my brand?

No - it reserves the name for doing business, but it doesn’t give trademark rights.

If you want to protect your logo or brand name, you’ll need to register a trademark with IP Australia.

Is my information secure?

Yes. Your details are processed using secure 256-bit encryption and handled in line with ASIC and ATO standards.
