Answer
From 1 July 2026, under Payday Super, your employee's super fund must generally receive each super contribution (with all the information needed to allocate it to the member) within 7 business days of payday, unless an ATO exception applies. See the ATO's payment deadlines for Payday Super and our guide, How Can I Handle Payday Super In Lightning Payroll?
For earnings paid up to 30 June 2026, the old quarterly due dates apply, and can be found here. Usually super needed to be paid by the 28th of the first month following the end of a quarter.
