SuperStream Rollovers V3

New rules have been in place since October 2021. SMSFs are now required to conduct rollovers through SuperStream. A compliant electronic service address (ESA) is now required as a minimum standard.

Here’s where the confusion comes in –  not all ESAs comply with new SuperStream V3 regulations. To conduct Rollovers in and out of SMSFs, an ESA must be SuperStream V3 compliant. A compliant ESA can manage contribution data and Release Authority notifications from the ATO in addition to executing Rollovers.

Many trustees don’t have an ESA or only have an ESA that offers Contribution data, so they cannot manage Rollovers or Release Authorities with their existing ESA.

The Challenge: New rules are costing a lot of extra time

Under the new rules, trustees that need to perform a Rollover must have a SuperStream compliant ESA and action the Rollover within three days, which can cause confusion. As a result, intermediaries are dealing with a lot of SOS calls.

The Solution: Wrkr SMSF Hub

Wrkr SMSF Hub is an ATO-registered SuperStream messaging provider. Our cost-effective,  real-time solution helps you manage all your clients’ SMSF SuperStream data in one place.

For Small Businesses
Quarterly super payments will no longer apply. Under Payday Super, contributions need to be processed each pay run, with payments required to be received by the super fund within 7 business days of payday.

This means super becomes part of your regular payroll process. You’ll need a system that can handle frequent submissions, maintain accurate employee data, and provide visibility over payment status, not just at quarter end.
For Bookkeepers & Accountants
For those managing multiple clients, Payday Super increases both volume and complexity. Instead of quarterly lodgements, super needs to be processed alongside every client pay run.

A centralised approach, with multi-entity access, bulk processing, and clear visibility over submissions, fund receipt, and any issues, becomes critical to keeping things running smoothly.
