Making Personal Contributions

Contributing extra now can have a big impact later. Putting even a few dollars extra into your super each week could significantly boost your retirement savings and may even lower your taxable income.

What are the benefits of contributing more?

Life happens. As much as we try to have all parts of our lives under control, it’s natural to let some things slide. And you may be tempted to set-and-forget super, but making extra contributions is a great way to boost your retirement nest egg and pay less tax at the same time.

  • Make your money work hard for you – thanks to the power of compound interest, every extra dollar you contribute will be reinvested again and again, growing your savings faster.
  • Put your dollars into retirement, not tax – making a before-tax contribution could reduce your taxable income, essentially converting your tax dollars into retirement savings.
  • Give yourself the lifestyle you deserve – you deserve a great life after work. Contributing extra today could mean being able to have the lifestyle you imagine for yourself in retirement.

Making personal superannuation contributions for yourself or a spouse is simple with Nationwide Super.
