Voluntary 
contributions

Take a set-and-forget approach to super contributions by setting up a salary sacrifice scheme with your employer. The money comes directly out of your pre-tax pay and is put into your super before you even realise it’s gone. It’s a small sacrifice now that can have huge benefits over time.

If you’re a low or middle-income earner and make after-tax contributions to your super, you might be eligible for the government’s co-contribution scheme. If you qualify, you could have up to $500 paid directly into your super each year.

Contribute to your partner’s super and share the benefits in retirement together. If your partner is a low-income earner, or is taking a break from work, you might be able to make contributions to their super, allowing you to grow their savings and reduce your tax bill in one simple step.
