Preparing for the Closure of the SBSCH
We’d like to keep you informed about some important changes coming up that will affect your business. The Australian government has announced the implementation of Payday Super, which will bring positive reforms to how superannuation is managed. As part of these changes, the ATO’s Small Business Superannuation Clearing House (SBSCH) will be closing on 1 July 2026.
While this may seem a little while away, we strongly encourage you to begin considering alternative options now. This will help ensure a smooth transition when the SBSCH service closes, so you can continue making your superannuation payments without disruption.
What Does This Mean for Your Business?
The closure of the SBSCH is part of broader reforms designed to simplify superannuation for small businesses. While the SBSCH has been a helpful tool for many, there are now other excellent options available to take its place. By planning ahead, you’ll be able to transition smoothly and keep your business in line with the new requirements.
Your Options Moving Forward
There’s no need to worry - there are several great alternatives to the SBSCH that can make your superannuation payments easier:
Commercial or Super Fund Clearing Houses: These services are designed to handle all your superannuation payments in one go, saving you time and effort. They’re a great option for small businesses looking for a simple solution.
Payroll Software: If you’re already using payroll software, many providers offer integrated superannuation features, so you can make your super payments directly through your payroll system. It’s a convenient way to keep everything in one place and ensure you’re compliant.
Need More Information?
If you are stuck on what this means for you, now is a good time to enquire with how we can get you set up on a compliant payroll software and provide training with plenty of time before the cut off date of the 1st July 2026, reach out now to discuss your options,
