Why use a Credit Card for Superannuation?

Payroll

Pay Superannuation Expenses

Paying Superannuation with your credit card can improve cash flow by giving you extra days before the funds leave your account. At the same time, you earn valuable reward points on every payment—turning normal business expenses into additional benefits for the company.

For example

Pay $30,000 a month in Superannuation on an American Express Explorer Card, and you’re spending $360,000 a year.
At 2 Membership Rewards points per $1, that earns around 60,000 MR points per month — or 720,000 MR points annually.
That’s enough for a return business‑class flights to Europe, or multiple business‑class trips to Asia, just by paying Super you already owe.*

Why Use a Credit Card for Superannuation and Other Business Expenses?

Icons 48px

Adhere to New Payday Super Requirements

From July 1, 2026, Australian employers must pay superannuation with every payroll cycle instead of quarterly, with funds reaching employee accounts within 7 business days of payday—eliminating the three-month cash buffer many businesses have relied on. RewardPay gives you up to 55 days of interest-free credit to manage this transition, allowing you to pay super on time alongside wages while preserving working capital for other critical expenses like stock, suppliers, and unexpected costs.

Earn Rewards on Mandatory Payroll Expenses

With the super guarantee now at 12%, your super obligations represent substantial annual expenditure that traditionally earns nothing. A business with 10 employees on $70,000 salaries pays $84,000 annually in super—using RewardPay converts these mandatory payments into valuable rewards points worth flights, accommodation, or cashback, effectively creating tangible value from an unavoidable business cost.

hamb

Avoid Costly Penalties and Compliance Issues

Missing super deadlines triggers the Super Guarantee Charge—including the unpaid amount, 10% interest, and $20 admin fee per employee (none of which are tax-deductible). RewardPay helps you meet the new 7-day payment window on time every payroll cycle, protecting your business from penalties that far exceed the small service fee while maintaining compliance with ATO requirements and Single Touch Payroll reporting.

RewardPay helps business owners pay superannuation and other business bills and earn rewards – so you get something back for your hard work.

Yes. RewardPay supports superannuation payments. You pay your superannuation clearing house (not individual super funds directly). You will need their ABN, BSB, bank account number and relevant EFT reference. The clearing house then distributes funds to individual super funds on your behalf.

 

Payments finalised on the RewardPay portal by 5pm AEST/AEDT on a business day will be paid out the next business day, and may not appear in the clearing house’s account until the following business day. We strongly recommend submitting at least 3-4 business days before the due date.

 

Yes. All payment methods are eligible to earn loyalty points. Amex payments earn your card’s standard Membership Rewards points, while Visa and Mastercard payments earn your card’s standard rewards points. On any payment method, you can also opt in to earn additional rewards with one of our loyalty partners by selecting your preferred earn tier at checkout (additional fees apply).
