From 1 July 2026, two major changes will affect all Australian employers:
- Payday Super will become mandatory, meaning super contributions must be paid at the same time as wages, not quarterly.
- The Small Business Superannuation Clearing House (SBSCH) will be phased out, so businesses using this service will need to transition to a new solution.
To help you prepare, our trusted partner Lightning Payroll is already fully compliant with these changes. Their software supports Payday Super today and, as an ATO Gold-certified SuperStream provider, enables employers to report and pay super directly without relying on an external clearing house.
To learn more about these changes, see Lightning Payroll’s news page to read the full article.
