Get up to $500 extra in your super

The end of financial year (EOFY) is approaching fast, which makes now the perfect time to check in on your super.

Adding a bit extra to your super now, can make a big difference to your retirement savings in future.[S1] You could also receive up to $500 extra in co-contributions from the government.[S3]

Now that’s super helpful.

Important note: Add to your super by 26 June 2026 to be eligible for the government co‑contribution (2025–26). The cut off date is stated as 26 June 2026 as your contribution must be received and banked with Aware Super by 30 June to be eligible for the 2025/2026 financial year. This is to allow up to three business days for your bank to transfer the funds and it be credited to your super account.

Government bonus

The government adds 50 cents to your super for every $1 you contribute from your after‑tax pay, up to a maximum of $500 per FY.[S3]

How do co-contributions work?

If you earn $62,488 or less and choose to add extra to your super, you could be eligible for a co-contribution up to $500 from the government.[S3] That’s up to 500 extra dollars earning interest in your super on top of what you added yourself.[S3]

This is a great way to boost your super balance now, and you can watch that extra money help build your wealth over time.

The final years of working life before retirement can give you the opportunity to significantly boost your super. If you’re approaching retirement and want to learn how to bolster your investments, our self-serve hub delivers education and resources for all stages of your journey into retirement.

By better understanding the different contribution options available, such as regular or lump sum contributions, downsizer contributions, and rules that may allow you to contribute more, you can make informed decisions before transitioning out of work.

Keeping savings in super means your money stays invested, compound interest can continue to work in your favour, and you may also be eligible for tax benefits, helping you prepare for the future you want after work.

All investment markets fluctuate. Market volatility is normal. While current global events can impact the stability of the investment market, our investment strategy is purpose-designed to withstand these ups and downs.

It’s important to remember that super is a long-term investment. What feels like volatility now is likely to correct itself over time, as we've seen in previous periods of market instability recently.

Our products, such as our default MySuper Lifecycle where the majority of our members are invested, are built to ride out these shifts in the market so you can invest knowing the experts have got your back.
