Assuming var1 and var2 only ever use the last four numbers (untested): $length = strlen($number); // get string length $var1 = substr($number,0,$length-4); // get number until only 4 numbers are left $var2 = substr($number,$length-4,2); // get 3rd and 4th last numbers. $var3 = substr($number,$length-2,2); // get last two numbers.

No need to work out the length of the string. $var1 = substr($number, 0, -4); $var2 = substr($number, -4, 2); $var3 = substr($number, -2);
