Payday Super Reminder – Have you Started Paying Super within 7 days of the Payroll?
As you may have seen in our earlier updates, PayDay Super started on 1 July 2026.
How Payday Super works
Payday Super is a change to how you pay your employees’ super guarantee. Effective from 1 July 2026 you must:
- pay employees their super guarantee within 7 business days of each pay run/event (instead of quarterly)
- calculate super based on an employee’s qualifying earnings, which is a new term that brings together ordinary time earnings and other payments.
Payday Super does not change:
- who you have to pay super for (you continue to pay super for eligible employees, including independent contractors paid mainly for their labour)
- the percentage you use to calculate super guarantee payments (still 12%)
For more information see Payment deadlines for Payday Super or contact your 4Front Advisor.
Have you paid your June 2026 Superannuation Guarantee payments?
The June 2026 Superannuation Guarantee payments are due by 28th July 2026, noting this will be the last quarterly superannuation payment you will make.
Once this is paid, all superannuation payments will be made under the new Payday Super rules.
