Getting Ready for Payday Super

Brentnalls Western Victoria • April 16, 2026

Getting Ready for Payday Super 


Simple steps to stay ahead of the 1 July 2026 changes 


What’s changing? 


From 1 July 2026: 


  • Super must be paid at the same time as wages 
  • Contributions must reach funds within 7 days of payday 
  • The ATO Small Business Super Clearing House will close 


Good news: 
The 
amount of super doesn’t change, just the timing. 


What this means for your business 


  • Cash flow impact – payments go out more frequently 
  • Less room for delays – timing becomes critical 
  • Systems matter – manual processes won’t keep up 


Payday Super turns super from a quarterly task into something that happens every pay run. 


Why start preparing now 


The businesses that transition smoothly will: 


  • Review and refine processes early 
  • Test systems and workflows 
  • Plan for cash flow changes 
  • Ensure employee super details are correct 

 

What to review 


Start with these key areas: 


  • Your payroll and super process 
  • Employee super fund details 
  • Pay run timing and approvals 
  • Your cash flow planning 
  • Whether your system can handle per-pay-run super payments 

 

How we can help 


We recommend starting with a short planning session. 


In this session, we’ll: 


  • Walk through what Payday Super means for your business 
  • Review your current payroll and super setup 
  • Identify any gaps or risks 
  • Agree on practical next steps and a timeline 


If moving to a more integrated solution like Xero Payroll, we’ll guide you through the transition and ensure everything runs smoothly. 


Get ahead of the change 


Payday Super is a significant shift but with the right preparation, it can be simple and stress-free. 


We’re here to help you feel organised, prepared and confident well ahead of the deadline.

If you've driven past our office recently, you may have noticed some changes underway! We're excited to share that installation of our new Brentnalls Western Victoria signage has commenced. Like many outdoor projects, the recent weather has caused a few delays, but we're looking forward to seeing the finished result once the weather improves! The rebrand represents an exciting new chapter for our firm, while maintaining the same trusted team, local knowledge and commitment to supporting our clients. We think it will be well worth the wait!

Team Fundraiser for The Shaka Project Recently, our team came together for a fundraising morning tea in support of The Shaka Project , an organisation dedicated to promoting positive mental health, wellbeing and meaningful conversations within our communities. It was wonderful to see staff get behind the cause, enjoy some great food, and contribute to an important initiative that aligns closely with our commitment to supporting wellbeing both in and outside the workplace. Thank you to everyone who donated and helped make the morning a success. For more information on The Shaka Project head to their website here
