What Is Payday Super Cashflow?
From 1 July 2026 AU employers must pay super on payday (not quarterly). Estimate cashflow impact of moving from quarterly to weekly/fortnightly SG payments. This calculator gives an indicative result based on the headline rate; situational adjustments (rebates, asset tests, dependant additions) may shift the final figure 5–15% in either direction. Always check the official source for your specific case.
How to Use This Tool
Enter the primary amount and the relevant rate. The tool computes the proportional tax, contribution, benefit, or deduction. For multi-tier or phased-in situations (e.g. payday super, EPF i-Saraan match), the single-rate calculation is a starting point — refer to the official calculator for the exact phase-in / phase-out.
