AU Payroll | Superannuation - Set up auto payment with a credit card

Have automatic superannuation payments be able to be paid via credit card, through xero. Currently there seems to only be the ability to make automatic payment via direct debit but it would be good if it could be made by a credit card.

Not in pipeline  ·  AdminDavid Reynolds (Admin, Xero) responded  · 

Hi everyone, we appreciate and understand the desire to use a credit card for Auto Super payments.

We've looked into the possibility of introducing this feature. However, Australian regulations currently do not support credit cards as a payment method for Superannuation. Until these regulations change we’re unable to develop this feature.

For this reason we’ll be changing the status of this idea to Not in pipeline. We’ll continue to monitor regulations in this area and will revisit this idea if the situation changes. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

    This is a critical need. To help with cash flow and as an incentive for employers. AMEX would be amazing.

    We require CC payments and this would drastically disrupt our day to day business.

    This is a crucial function needed, including with AMEX, when the Small Business Superannuation Clearing House closes down next year.

    Paying superannuation by credit card, including Amex, is definitely needed and will be crucial when the Small Business Superannuation Clearing House closes down next year.

    Is there any update on when this feature is coming?

    The ability to pay Super via credit card would be a much needed and highly valuable feature for our business.

    This would be a great upgrade to Xero to enable us to pay Super via credit card.

    Direct debit authority via credit card (Amex) would be great. No chance of allowing Xero direct debit access to our bank account.

    Need to be able to have the option to pay Auto Super batch by credit card and AMEX!

    NEED TO BE ABLE TO PAY SUPER VIA CREDIT CARD AND AMEX

  • Mark Twyford commented  ·   ·  Report

    With the impending closure of Small business clearing house next year, many clients would benefit from this in XERO

    Need to get this in place well ahead of payday super coming in.

    The way modern banking works it is crucial to be able to take advantage of facilities like credit cards to maximise payment times and take advantage of credit card benefits like point and insurances.

    Many Farmers run on an overdraft and credit cards. Many cannot use the Xero Super Auto payment and instead use SBSCH, as the ATO accepts payment of SBSCH with a credit card. As SBSCH is being de-commissioned 1 July 2026, We are requesting Xero to enable credit cards to be linked to pay the Xero Super. The clients are paying enough in their subscription and have been paying for the XeroClickSuper function to be available, the only thing that is stopping them is overdraft facilities and credit card facilities wont work with Xero Click Super.
    Gold Star for Xero if IT can make this happen.
