Welcome to Super SA
Grow your super with South Australians just like you
Section Heading
You may not be thinking about growing your super right now, but it’s good to know that Super SA is run by people who get you. After all, we’ve looked after SA public sector employees for over 120 years. And as an SA owned and run super fund, we know what it takes to set you on the path to your best life in retirement.

Confirm your contact details
Even if your employer has your preferred contact details, Super SA may not!
Once you’ve registered for your online account, make sure to confirm your personal email address, mobile number, and postal address. This way, you’ll never miss important updates and invitations to member events.
It’s the only way to make sure that all future correspondence (including your annual statement) is sent to you online. That’s right, bye-bye slow postal mail! Of course, you can change your communications preference anytime through your online account or by calling us.
Book a complimentary seminar or webinar
Whether you’re starting out in your career or have been contributing to super for years, we can help with questions like: ‘How much money will I need to retire?’, ‘What are the benefits of Triple S?’ and ‘How does insurance in my super work?’.
The best part? Member education sessions are available year-round and won’t cost you anything extra (just a bit of your time).
Consider rolling in other super
If you have undertaken other employment outside of the SA public sector, chances are you have other super accounts. By consolidating your super, you’re moving it all into one super provider. You can save on time and energy by managing just one super account.
Simply log in to your myGov account, link to the ATO, and click on Manage my super. (Hint: If you don’t see your Super SA Triple S account listed, you can complete a Consolidate your super now form instead).
Before consolidating your super you should check with your other super fund(s) if rolling out will impact any of your benefits (eg. your insurance cover). You may also consider seeking advice from a financial planner.
Choose the right investment
Even if you are many years away from retirement, how you invest today could make a difference to your super balance in the future. It’s good to know what your options are, and our risk profiler tool is designed to help you. Just by answering a few questions, you can work out the level of investment risk you’re comfortable with, which can guide you with your investment decisions.
Stay with the Triple S Balanced default option or switch?
Most Triple S members are automatically invested in the Balanced option when they join. But did you know there are six other options to consider and that you can invest in more than one?
If you're unsure about which investment option is right for you, you may wish to seek personal financial advice.

Growing your super starts now
While adding to your super right now might not be top of mind, every extra dollar you contribute counts in the long run.
All it takes is some prep, and our calculators can help you get started.

You may already be aware of the benefits of boosting your super with pre-tax contributions (i.e. ‘salary sacrifice’ or ‘concessional contributions’) or after-tax contributions. In less than a minute, using our contributions calculator, you could find the most tax-effective way to boost your super, based on your annual income.

Using our super projection calculator, you can estimate how much super you’ll have at retirement and how long that might last you. Plus, see how making personal contributions (either before or after tax) could make a difference to your balance in the long run.
Check your insurance
Super SA automatically provides most new SA public sector employees with Income Protection (IP) plus Death and Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) insurance through Triple S (subject to eligibility). It’s up to you to decide if the default amount of insurance provided is right for you. If you’re not sure, we recommend you speak with a financial planner.
For details on how much cover you have, check your Welcome Letter or log in to your secure account. You can also read about ‘Insurance in your super’ in the Triple S Product Disclosure Statement or join our next insurance webinar or seminar.
