Stay with Sunsuper

Thinking of transferring your super to another super fund?

Before you do, we encourage you to take a moment to remind yourself of the many reasons it's great to be a member of Sunsuper.

We also suggest you make a quick comparison with other funds using a comparison tool from super funds ratings house, Chant West. It will show we have consistently delivered competitive long-term returns for our members, offer among the lowest administration fees and best value for money in the industry.

Want to withdraw your super?

Once you've turned 65, or reached your preservation age and retired, you have options for how you access your super - withdrawing a lump sum is just one of them. Another option is to leave your super invested so it will continue to receive investment earnings. There’s a very good reason to consider this option: The 10/30/60 Revelation. It uses the compounding interest your savings accrue to help fund your lifestyle, but the Revelation only works if your balance stays invested in super right through retirement. To keep your money working for you in retirement, learn more about our Retirement income account. 

It’s important to remember that the way you access your super can have different tax implications so you may want to seek advice before making a decision.

Considering a self-managed super fund (SMSF)?

Setting up and running a SMSF involves significant time and effort. Make sure you understand the costs and what is involved in having a self-managed superannuation fund before you switch. If you're intending to transfer in order to get early access to your benefits, please read this warning from ASIC before taking any action.
