Frequently asked questions

An Electronic Service Address (ESA) is like a digital mailbox for your SMSF. It allows your fund to receive employer contributions, rollovers and certain ATO messages electronically, which is required under SuperStream.

Every SMSF must have an active ESA to comply with SuperStream legislation. Without one, your fund may not be able to receive contributions or rollovers, putting your compliance at risk.

If your ESA provider exits the market, your SMSF will no longer receive SuperStream messages. This means employer contributions or rollovers could bounce back. To stay compliant, you’ll need to move to another ATO-registered provider, such as SuperMate ESA. To learn more about SuperMate ESA, Contact Us today.

SuperMate ESA is available when:

  1. Your accountant uses SuperMate to manage your SMSF, or

  2. Your SMSF is administered directly by SuperConcepts.

There is no additional cost for the ESA under these arrangements.

Yes. You can engage SuperConcepts to administer your SMSF, and your fund will automatically be connected to SuperMate ESA.

No. SuperMate ESA is included at no extra cost when your SMSF is administered by SuperConcepts or your accountant uses SuperMate.

You can check your current ESA provider through the ATO’s register or by asking your accountant/administrator. If you are unsure, complete the enquiry form below and our team can help confirm this for you.

It’s simple:

Are you using Australia Post’s SMSF Gateway?

Australia Post is closing its SMSF Gateway service. If your SMSF ESA is with them, you need to take action to stay compliant.

SuperMate ESA is a registered alternative. You can switch to SuperConcepts administration and continue receiving contributions and rollovers without interruption.
