Membership has many benefits

UniSuper is one of Australia's largest industry superannuation funds. So, as a member, you'll benefit from our economies of scale. We're proud to be able to offer our members a range of benefits including:

  • Flat, low fees. We don't charge entry or exit fees, nor commissions to agents. You simply pay a flat low administration fee rather than a percentage-based contribution or ongoing fee, which can make a huge difference to your savings over time.
  • An enviable record of strong investment returns. We're proud to achieve returns that regularly exceed industry benchmarks and averages.
  • All profits returned to members. UniSuper exists solely for the benefit of our members, so we do not pay commissions to agents or dividends to external shareholders. After fees and taxes are taken out, all returns go straight to your account.
  • Access to our range of flexible, low-cost pensions for a tax-effective retirement income. All of UniSuper's pensions have low administration charges, no entry fees and provide monthly payments into your nominated account.
  • Helpful advice and information. We offer booklets and fact sheets, online information, free workplace seminars and a dedicated Helpline. We can even refer you to an approved external financial planner.
  • A range of investment options and superannuation products. Whatever your financial situation, career stage, risk profile and savings goals, we have superannuation products to suit you.
