Superannuation contributions by credit card

[turnipapple]

Is anyone doing Beem BPAY using credit card for superannuation contributions?

It's a late(ish) night brain thought but Hostplus & Australian Super websites say they accept BPAY. If it works for ATO payments, it could also work for super?

I use ATO SBSCH to make super payments (much to the chagrin of the super funds).

BPay using Sniip has worked fine.

Cheers. I tried BPAY with credit card and it's not accepted so Sniip will be the way to go

Not accepted by the ATO or Hostplus or Australia Super?

Hostplus/Aus Super don't accept Beem bpay. Apparently there can be issues as you're not meant to benefit in this way from super.

How did this go ? I am keen to know the outcome as I am planning to make some extra contributions to my super , so why not make more points ta

So we have 2 topics here...

Paying employee super as a business owner and making your own personal contributions post tax

I have been paying employee's Superannuation using Sniip. To be clear - I use the ATO Small Business Superannuation Clearing House (SBSCH) which is accessible though the ATO online services Business Portal. I do not pay directly to the Superannuation Funds so I can't say if doing that would work. It takes about 10 business days for the payments to appear in the respective superannuation accounts, so we are mindful of the 28th of the relevant month when payment is initiated.

I decided to give this ago. I've made a contribution to my personal super account.

Looks like everything is going to work. Just waiting for the money to show up in my super account.

Sniip.

AMP used to accept credit car payments and even direct debit via credit card, but they stopped that

I use the small business clearing house and pay via credit card that way now

Thanks for the prompt. I’m also doing this and three months in.

The fee slug is a nuisance but it’s better than stock piling loo paper to hit cc targets. Changing the card via app after each churn is straightforward.

So with 10% off Mastercard gift cards again from Wed, and EOFY not a bad way to contribute

Oh that's a great idea... wish I thought of this when the 10% off deal was on last week

I thought it was worth bumping this as maybe someone has had more luck in the last few months. I've tried paying Super to Hostplus via Zip BPAY but it is not accepted. Will go the Sniip route in a few months on some new credit cards but would prefer to save 1.5%!

Have just tried a payment to Hostplus using Sniip. Will see how it goes.

I made over 30 payments to HostPlus in June using Sniip without any problems at all.

I used Sniip in April to pay super to Aus Super with no problems. Have since changed to salary sacrifice so not using Sniip for it anymore.
