To calculate super guarantee contributions for employee earnings from 1 July 2026 see making super payments under Payday Super.

When to use the Super guarantee contributions calculator tool

You need to pay the minimum super guarantee contribution based on the super guarantee rate for the relevant year.

For quarters ending on or before 30 June 2026, the Super guarantee contributions calculator tool helps you work out the super guarantee amount to pay to your employee's super fund by the due dates.

It will help you work out the quarterly super guarantee sub-totals of each individual super fund and the total of all contributions payable. The calculator doesn't calculate nominal interest.

If you're late in meeting your quarterly super obligations, visit Missed and late super guarantee payments.

The answers you get from the calculator are based solely on the information you provide. You must check that the information you enter is correct. We are not responsible for any incorrect answers.

Employees should use the Estimate my quarterly super tool. This is designed to help you determine whether you are eligible for super guarantee contributions and whether your employer is paying the correct amount.

Note: Norfolk Island employers should not use this tool as a different super guarantee rate currently applies. See Norfolk Island superannuation basics for more information.

How to use the Super guarantee contributions calculator tool

The Super guarantee contributions calculator will take from one to five minutes to complete.

Employers

For quarters ending on or before 30 June 2026, employers can use the calculator to calculate super guarantee (SG) contributions.

After selecting Add on the first screen, you can select to apply the minimum SG rate or increase the rate based on the arrangement you have with your employees.

Information you need

Before you start, you will need:

  • the personal details of your employees, including their name (optional) and super fund details (optional)
  • the amount of superannuation payable for each employee for the period.

Entering your data

As an employer, you should be aware of the quarterly super guarantee eligibility criteria and the quarterly maximum contribution base.

The calculator has been designed so you can calculate super guarantee contributions weekly, fortnightly, monthly or quarterly, based on your business needs. Consequently, this calculator doesn't incorporate the quarterly super guarantee eligibility criteria or the maximum contribution base.
