Paying super with MLC EmployerPay

MLC EmployerPay is MLC's SuperStream-compliant clearing house and is available with an MLC employer super plan. It lets you pay super contributions for all your employees in one transaction — regardless of which funds they're in.

Before you begin

  1. Log in to MLC EmployerPay
  2. Upload your contribution file (SAFF-compatible CSV or enter manually)
  3. Submit your payment by 4pm AEST for same-day processing
  4. MLC EmployerPay distributes contributions to each employee's nominated fund

One payment covers all your employees, all their funds, all their contributions. No need to make separate payments to different super funds.

  • SuperStream compliant - meets the ATO's electronic reporting and payment standard
  • SAFF file compatible - upload your standard payroll file directly
  • Multi-fund payments - pay contributions to any complying super fund in a single batch
  • Real-time tracking - view contribution status and payment history online
  • Reporting - download contribution reports for your records and reconciliation
  • Manage your MLC super plan - keep your plan records up to date by adding or removing members, and maintaining their important details such as salary and category of membership

There are currently no fees payable for standard use of MLC EmployerPay. Other fees may apply in certain circumstances.

When might these fees apply?

These fees generally only apply where additional administration is required to resolve payment or contribution processing issues. To help avoid fees, ensure contribution data, payment amounts and payment reference numbers are accurate, and that payments are not cancelled, disputed or recalled after submission.

If any of these fees become payable, you will be notified in writing.
