Super contributions

Even small extra amounts paid into your super now could give you tax benefits and make a big difference to your retirement payment.

Most wage and salary earners already receive super payments from their employer through Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions. Those payments, which are currently 11.5% (for financial year 2024/2025) of ordinary income, can go a long way towards building a lump sum to help fund your retirement.

But there are other ways to put money into your super including from your pre-tax salary (sometimes called salary sacrifice), your after-tax income, or as a spouse contribution. Your Brighter Super Accumulation account is flexible, so you can make regular payments or lump sum contributions – with no entry or exit fees.
