Australia Visa notes : The Australia Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) is temporarily only available via an APP on your mobile device, introduced by the Government of Australia. The APP can be found in Apple APP store, ANDROID, or where you normally find APPS for your device. CIBTvisas/VisaCentral will resume issuing of Australia ETAs as soon as we are able. While waiting for that to occur, here are some notes on the APP for Australia ETA:

In addition to providing a scan of passport you will need to take a photo and answer a series of questions.

Cost is $20 paid on the APP. Fee is set by Australia government and subject to change.
