Super Guarantee Calculator

The super guarantee rate is 12%. From 1 July 2026 it applies to qualifying earnings — a new definition under Payday Super.

Qualifying earnings for the pay run ($)

What are qualifying earnings?

From 1 July 2026, qualifying earnings bring together ordinary time earnings, all commissions, salary sacrifice super contributions, and other amounts previously counted in salary or wages for super guarantee purposes. The rate remains 12% — what changed is the earnings base and the payment deadline (see our Payday Super Deadline Calculator).
