Regular income payments from your retirement transition or retirement income account can be paid to you weekly, fortnightly, monthly, quarterly, half-yearly or yearly. These payments are made to your nominated bank or credit union account.

Key points: 
  

  • Your retirement income or retirement transition account gives you the flexibility to set up regular income payments from your retirement savings.
  • How much and when you get paid each year is up to you. There is a minimum annual payment limit for both account types, and a maximum limit applies for retirement transition accounts.
  • Receive regular income payments from your super into your nominated bank account:
    • fortnightly
    • monthly
    • quarterly
    • half-yearly or yearly.
  • You can also:
    • make extra cash withdrawals when you need to (for retirement transition accounts, this is subject to the maximum annual payment limit), and
    • choose how much and how often you get paid.
  • You can log in to your Member Online account to change your payment frequency at any time.
  • Payment to a bank account will generally arrive within three business days.
  • Payment to a credit union account will generally arrive within five business days.
