From 1 July, employers will need to pay super each time they pay wages – not once a quarter.
To help small businesses prepare, the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has released a Payday Super checklist. It outlines what to do, when to do it and how to stay compliant.
The shift to payday super will require changes to payroll systems and internal processes. Most cloud-based software already supports payday contributions, so it’s worth speaking to your provider now to make sure you're ready.
The ATO says getting on top of the changes early will reduce admin and make the transition smoother. It also gives you time to set up a timeline that suits your pay cycles.
If you currently use the ATO’s Small Business Superannuation Clearing House, note that it will be closing on 1 July 2026. A separate checklist is available to help with that switch.
All resources are available at ato.gov.au/paydaysuper.
