How to make payments

We make it easy to keep up-to-date when new employees start at your business, and others leave.

You can add, remove and update employee details at any time, using our payment systems; Employer SuperSite or Cbus Clearing House.

  • If a new employee is already a Cbus member, simply add them to the system.
  • If a new employee is not a Cbus member, they can join Cbus online or by completing the membership application form in the Cbus Industry Super PDS (PDF)

Access employee member details

You can access your employee member details by calling Cbus on 1300 361 784.

When to make payments?

Employer superannuation contributions are due on the first business day of every month. For example, super payments for March are due on the first business day in April.

Making regular monthly super payments to your Cbus members may help you manage the cash flow of your business. It can also have a significant impact on your employees’ super balance over time. Paying monthly may also help position you as an industry employer of choice.

Member personal contributions are required to be paid within 28 days of the end of the month from when they were deducted from the employee's salary.

Payment options - Employer SuperSite

When you join online with Cbus, you’ll have access to your Employer SuperSite account. 

The Employer SuperSite allows you to:

  • lodge your contribution returns
  • make payments using BPAY®, Direct debit or Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)
  • access and update your records, including employee details
  • access your full transaction history
  • easily add new employees by scanning their IDs on your phone

Please note: We will be updating the online super experience in the new year to provide employers with better functionality and additional features that will make it easier to administer employee super. As such, all registered users of the Employer SuperSite will be migrated across to the Employer Online platform in the new year.  All Employer SuperSite users will be provided with information and support relating to the changes in the coming months, in the lead up to the change.

Payment methods

BPAY EFT Direct debit
You can make payments through your bank or credit union from your nominated account (excluding credit card accounts). Simply quote our BPAY Biller Code together with the reference number printed on each month’s online Contribution Return form. You can make contributions via EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer). To register for EFT call us on 1300 361 784. Or, if you're using Cbus Clearing House you can complete this step online. To pay by direct debit you’ll need to register for one of our online payment facilities. Once logged in, both payment systems allow you to securely add this information.

Salary sacrifice

Cbus can assist you in arranging to pay salary sacrifice contributions into your employee’s super fund.  

Your employee agrees to ‘sacrifice’ a part of their before-tax pay, in exchange for an equal super contribution made by you directly into their Cbus account.

If an employee is eligible for salary sacrifice, they can complete a Salary sacrifice contributions form (PDF). This form will need to be returned to your payroll area.
