How to pay super using MYOB and pay.com.au

MYOB Superannuation

Super is one of the biggest payments you'll make each payday. Why not earn rewards on it? Pay your clearing house through pay.com.au using your MYOB payroll data, manage your cashflow with various payment options available, and stack PayRewards Points on every contribution.

It's a one-time setup, then a quick three-step flow each payday.

Before you start — one-time setup

You only need to do this once.

  • 1 Choose a clearing house that accepts manual payment submissions.
  • 2 Add the clearing house as a supplier payee in pay.com.au using the payment details they issue you — ABN, BPAY biller code or bank account details, and any standing reference details.

Not sure which clearing house to use? See the ATO's certified clearing house register for options.

You're set. From here, every payday is three steps.

Each payday

Step 1 — Run your super report in MYOB

1
Run MYOB report
2
Submit to clearing house
3
Pay in pay.com.au
  • Go to Reporting > Reports, then open the Payroll tab.
  • Under the superannuation reports, run Superannuation Accrual by Fund — it breaks contributions down by employee and by fund for the period.
  • Filter by All Employees, your pay period Date Range, and leave Super Fund set to show all funds.
  • Cross-check against the Superannuation Accrual by Category report and make sure every contribution type you intend to pay this run — Super Guarantee, salary sacrifice, employer additional, etc. — is included. Anything you leave out won't get paid.
  • Note the total contribution per employee, per fund. That's the figure you'll hand to your clearing house.
Already got MYOB's Pay Super switched on?

Pay Super submits and pays your contributions in one hit — straight out of your bank account, no pay.com.au involved. Handy, but it means zero PayRewards Points. Use the reports above to get your figures, skip processing the payment through Pay Super, and pay through pay.com.au instead to stack points on every contribution.

Step 2 — Submit the figures to your clearing house

  • 5 Choose your PayRewards earn rate.
  • 6 Review and authorise.

A few things to know

Super payments can't be set up as recurring.
Each payment needs a unique PRN issued by your clearing house for that specific run, so you'll set up each payday's payment fresh.
Timing is on you.
Under Payday Super, contributions need to reach each employee's super fund within the legislated window. pay.com.au pays your clearing house, and your clearing house then forwards the funds to the super funds — make sure you're allowing enough time for both legs to clear before the deadline.
