Businesses are preparing for the transition to Payday Super, with new requirements set to change how and when superannuation contributions are paid from 1 July 2026.. Photo by Scott Graham.
From 1 July 2026, new legislation will change how and when employers pay super. Under Payday Super, super guarantee (SG) contributions must be paid at the same time as salary and wages, rather than quarterly.
With Payday Super approaching, having the right systems in place is critical. With implementation now only weeks away, businesses should act promptly to ensure a smooth and compliant transition.
Payday Super is designed to:
• Help employees grow their retirement savings faster
• Reduce unpaid or late super
• Make super easier to track for employees and employers
Prime Super Pay has been designed with Payday Super in mind and includes an integrated superannuation clearing house, provided by Wrkr, to make managing super payments simpler and more transparent. Prime Super Pay brings everything together in one place, with easy-to-use tools, reporting, contribution tracking and support for more complex business structures.
You’ll have access to:
• A modern, easy to use platform for managing super contributions
• Self service help, guides and contribution tracking
• Reporting tools to support reconciliation and record keeping
• Support for multiple businesses and more complex structures
• Payroll integrations and digital employee onboarding (where available)
Prime Super Pay is open for registration now. SCH Online and EmployerOnline will become read only from 1 July 2026 and all contributions must be submitted through Prime Super Pay.
