Sunsuper provides access to competitive insurance to help protect yourself, your family and your lifestyle if something happens to take away your earning power.

As a Sunsuper Solutions member, you receive:

  • automatic insurance cover for Death and Total and Permanent Disability (TPD), provided you meet the eligibility criteria (see below),
  • options to increase your cover to meet your needs,
  • competitive premiums, usually lower than cover you would organise yourself, and
  • premiums deducted from your super, so they have no impact on your take-home pay.
