Payday Super Support for
Blacktown Employers
Weekly driver pay, fortnightly clinic rosters or monthly salaries: under Payday Super, every pay run now comes with a super deadline. W Advisory Blacktown sets up your payroll and clearing so each contribution reaches the fund on time.
Stay Compliant with Payday Super
W Advisory Blacktown's Payday Super services help employers pay super correctly under the rules that took effect on 1 July 2026. We review which workers are covered, calculate super on qualifying earnings, set up payment through SuperStream or a commercial clearing house, check STP reporting and reconcile every contribution against the 7-business-day deadline.
The change hits hardest where pay runs are frequent. A transport business paying 40 drivers weekly now faces 52 super deadlines a year instead of four, and each contribution must arrive at the fund, not merely leave your bank. That's a systems and cash flow challenge as much as a compliance one.

How Does Payday Super Work for Employers?
Payday Super requires employers to pay super guarantee each time they pay wages. Each contribution equals 12% of the worker's qualifying earnings and has to be sitting in their fund no later than 7 business days after payday (a new starter's first contribution gets 20 business days). Earnings and super are reported through Single Touch Payroll every pay run.
| Pay cycle | Super deadlines per employee each year | Common in Blacktown |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly | 52 | Transport, logistics, warehousing, hospitality |
| Fortnightly | 26 | Healthcare, retail, trades |
| Monthly | 12 | Professional and office-based roles |
Under the old rules, all three had four quarterly deadlines. The more often you pay, the more chances to slip, so reliable systems matter more than ever.
A few rules that catch employers out:
- No minimum earnings thresholdSuper applies to qualifying earnings however little a worker earns, although workers under 18 generally only qualify in weeks they work more than 30 hours.
- Labour-only contractorsContractors paid mainly for their labour count as employees for super.
- Stapled fundsIf a new employee doesn't choose a fund, you must request their stapled fund from the ATO before using your default fund.
- No free clearing houseEmployers who relied on the ATO's small business service have needed an alternative since it shut on 1 July 2026.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
(FAQs)
1. Do I pay super for casual and part-time staff?
Under Payday Super, you pay super on the qualifying earnings of casual and part-time employees every pay run, with no minimum earnings threshold. Workers under 18 generally only qualify in weeks they work more than 30 hours. W Advisory Blacktown checks each worker's eligibility and sets up payroll to calculate super correctly.
2. Are contracted drivers or practitioners entitled to super?
Contracted drivers, practitioners or tradespeople can be entitled to super if they're paid mainly for their labour, even when they hold an ABN. Contracts that pay for a result, where the worker supplies significant equipment and can subcontract, are less likely to attract super. We're here to review your arrangements against the ATO's tests.
3. What happens if a fund rejects a super payment?
If a fund rejects a contribution, usually because member details are wrong, the money comes back to you and the employee's super hasn't been paid. The details need correcting, and the contribution needs to be resent quickly to stay within ATO timeframes. Our team checks for returned payments after every pay run and fixes them promptly.
4. Is super paid under Payday Super tax-deductible?
Super guarantee contributions paid to employees' funds are generally tax-deductible in the income year they're paid. Under Payday Super, a super guarantee charge assessed for late payment is also generally deductible, but interest on late payment of the charge and late payment penalties are not. W Advisory Blacktown reviews how these amounts are treated in your return.
5. How much does Payday Super support cost?
Fees depend on your headcount, how often you run payroll, how many entities you operate and how much fixing your current setup needs. Our team reviews your payroll first and provides a clear quote before starting, so you can compare the cost with the risk of missed deadlines.
