Income account administration fees
Members pay a low administration fee of just $1.50 per week plus 0.10% p.a.* for the first $800,000 of your account balance.
For balances under $6,000 a maximum 3% fee cap applies to all Sunsuper accounts, inclusive of administration fees, investment fees and indirect costs. The calculator does not include the 3% cap for account balances less than $6,000 and it does not include investment fees and indirect costs in its assumption, as this is dependent on how your superannuation is invested.
