Plan your cash flow
Moving from quarterly payments to paying super each payday may affect your cash flow rhythm. This is especially important in July, because you may have your:
- usual April to June quarterly super payment
- first Payday Super payments (which could be 4 extra payments if you pay your staff weekly).
Act now and make a plan to manage your cash flow.
