    The more alcohol you buy, the more super you get!

    • That’s if you don’t die from liver failure first…lol

  • Interesting concept. This would be classed as a voluntary contribution and need to be taxed, yes?

    • +1

      The money is put in to your super as an after tax contribution (non-concessional contribution). That is because the money is considered a cashback discount not extra earnings. The ATO website says here that these are not taxed: ATO Website

      • I'm not sure that would be right. I think it might be classed as before tax as the cashback could be considered as a form of income as it's being paid by a third party- therefor it might be taxed at 15%.

        In anycase, it's a good business model. Very clever.

        • +2

          It's not like people are declaring cashbacks in their tax returns are they?

        • I asked a mate who is in tax about this. He said, if cashback is income, then buying the thing in the first place is income producing. Sort of made sense from that perspective.

          • @Calvin27: Makes sense, good explanation

          • @Calvin27: Does this mean it's not income then because buying the thing is not income producing?

            Businesses like Franchisors get rebates from Franchisee spend from vendors. I guess they would have to declare the income though? as they didn't even spend the money in the first place.

      • after tax - refers to your income tax rate from your salary

        the only thing that these purchases are after is GST - if the buyer is registered for that.

        did you guys make a company for super without consulting the relevent lawyers and tax authorities??

        • +1

          @asterman Cashback is considered a discount on your purchase, not extra earnings. That means you are getting your own money back. It is a form of a discount. Similar to when you get 20% off on a purchase. The money you earned and used to pay for your purchase from your salary is coming back to you. That is the reason it is a non-concessional (after tax) contribution to your super which does not get taxed. The cashback is exclusive of GST you might pay. And yes we do have company lawyers and accountants whom we consult.

          • @Boost Your Super: Sorry I read wrong you and your repliers post wrong. Yes an after tax contribution.

            What is the capped limit ? Also do you send a statement at tax time ?

      • Except I don't make this contribution myself, you (or the vendor) make it for me - wouldn't it therefore be an "other third party" contribution, and hence concessional?

        • We take your money and place it in your super fund account for you. So it remains a non-concessional contribution as it is your money.

          • @Boost Your Super: Yes, but I don't make it myself - I therefore don't see how it can be a personal contribution.

  • -4

    sure, let's talk super. the interest rate for my super (UniSuper, balanced profile) over the last 6 months was -3.5% due to the ill timed investments.

    so basically you give them, say, 10k. they lose 7.3k of that. you're in negative.

    now, why would you put MORE money into that, rather than just pocket it directly?

    • +1

      looks like you need to change superannuation providers

      • would love your suggestion.

        what's your provider — i've been transparent about the rate (-3.5% over 6 months). what's better?

        • My Australian super balanced option is +0.63% in the 6 months prior from today (and that's my weakest performing investment). That's enough information i'll give someone that thinks -3.5% of 10k is 7.3k. Have a good day :)

    • +1

      Over the next 6 months you could have equally large gains.

      Markets rise and fall frequently. It's best to consider investments over a 10 year period to determine the real rate of return - unless your a day trader.

      • would love your suggestion.

        what's your provider — i've been transparent about the rate (-3.5% over 6 months). what's better? what's been your 10 year period return?

        • MTAA. They have results online for the last 3 years, I'd have to go back into my own records for further info and I can't be bothered currently. Over the last 3 years they have averaged 8% p.a on their growth fund.

          My suggestion is that it isn't a short term thing. Super (depending on your age) is a 20-30 year proposition. Over those years, there will be times when your portfolio loses money.

          Nobody can pick the markets ups and downs with complete accuracy, so just focus on dollar cost averaging and constantly contributing to super.

    • +6

      just wanna ppoint out…if it went down by 3.5% you wouldnt lose 7.3k of your 10k.
      tihnk you might need to math a bit more

      if you put in 10k and lot 30% youll have 7k left.
      if you lost 7k itll be 70%
      going down 3.5% is like…350 lol

      • sloppy math, i'll agree — thanks for the correction.

    • Why have you chosen the balanced investment option? Choose a low risk option, get a low return.

      You have plenty of other options to choose from.

      Also doesn't look like balanced has been performing as poorly as you claim

  • So If I buy $1,000,000 high yield BMW car on eBay , I will get $10k cashback on my super ?

    • +1

      If it falls in the eBay deifned category of 'eBay Motors' then yes. But you also forgot the $3 bonus :)

  • +1

    Do purchases from the Coles ebay store count and if so which category/% does it fall under?

  • thanks op. i brought a $3.74 card wallet on ebay yesterday seems to have tracked now at pending
    $ 0.03 raised 0.03 does that mean it qualified? how long before it is credited to the super account and how does one make a missing claim if the $3 isn't credited ? can one claim these credits if self employed or as after tax extra self co contributions?

    • This should now reflect your $3 bonus PLUS a double boost as well. The bonus usually takes an extra day to come through. If a transaction does not come through you can let us know at [email protected] and we would chase it up for you. The contributions are normally after tax non-concessional contributions. If you are self-employed talk to your accountant as they can suggest other ways that may be more suited depending on your personal circumstances.
