Add a super fund

Gimbla Payroll includes a pre-loaded selection of commonly used regulated super funds. If an employee nominates a fund that is not currently listed, you can manually add it to your system from the Super Funds screen.

This guide covers how to add both regulated super funds and self-managed super funds (SMSFs), including the bank details and Electronic Service Address (ESA) required for SMSF compliance.

When adding a regulated super fund, the critical fields are the ABN and the Unique Superannuation Identifier (USI). You can verify these details via the official Super Fund Lookup registry or from the fund's website.

For example, you can find reference ABN and USI details directly on the Australian Retirement Trust website.
