Is Your Hospitality Business Ready for

Payday Super?

From 1 July 2026, super must reach your employees' funds within 7 business days of every payday.

Not quarterly. Every. Single. Pay run.

This isn't a minor admin update — it's the biggest change to superannuation obligations in decades.

For hospitality businesses running casual rosters, split shifts, and high staff turnover, the new rules create real exposure.

A single missed or late payment triggers an automatic ATO assessment. And unlike the old system, you won't be self-assessing — the ATO will do it for you.

The penalties are steep: 25% of unpaid super for a first offence. 50% if it happens again within 24 months.

And once you're past the 28-day window, those charges are no longer tax deductible.

On top of that, the super calculation itself is changing.

Super will now be calculated on Qualifying Earnings — a broader base than the current OTE — meaning bonuses and allowances that weren't previously counted, now are.

We've put everything you need to know into one free guide.
