What does Cbus Super give an employer who nominates it as their default fund?

All new Cbus employers receive access to the Cbus Clearing House through Employer Online, where they manage their account details and submit employee super contributions. No matter how many employees an employer has, Employer Online handles their staff super, and the same system can pay super to other funds.

How are super contributions submitted to Cbus Super?

Through Employer Online and the Cbus Clearing House, either by entering contributions manually or by uploading a payroll file. The clearing house accepts electronic funds transfer, direct debit and Osko PayID, and an employer can generate a receipt as evidence of making super contributions and download reports. From 1 July 2026 BPAY, EFT and cheque payments made directly to the fund are no longer accepted.

What support does Cbus Super publish for employers on Payday Super?

A Payday Super how to guide, a checklist that steps out the action an employer needs to take to meet their obligations, and an employer FAQ set covering transition dates, timing, qualifying earnings, systems and clearing house setup, and remediation. Payday Super commenced on 1 July 2026 and requires super to be paid at the same time as salary and wages.
