MyGigsters Partners with SuperChoice to Bring Embedded Superannuation Payments to Australian Gig Platforms
New partnership enables gig economy platforms to offer automatic super contributions through integrated fintech infrastructure, addressing the retirement savings gap for over one million Australian gig workers
Melbourne, AUSTRALIA – 8 March 2026 – MyGigsters, a leading embedded fintech platform for gig economy marketplaces, today announced a strategic partnership with SuperChoice, Australia's premier superannuation clearing house, to deliver embedded superannuation payment capabilities for gig platforms and marketplaces across Australia to coincide with the introduction of Payday Super from 1 July 2026.
The partnership addresses a critical gap in Australia's gig economy, where over 1.1 million independent contractors and gig workers often miss out on employer superannuation contributions, facing significantly reduced retirement savings compared to traditional employees. Through MyGigsters' integrated platform, powered by SuperChoice's clearing house infrastructure, gig platforms can now seamlessly offer super contributions as part of their standard payment flow with minimal technical integration
Solving Australia's Gig Worker Super Gap
As one of the fastest-growing segments of Australia's workforce — with the local gig economy growing at 18.9% CAGR — gig workers face significant retirement savings challenges due to their independent contractor classification. Recent regulatory momentum, including proposed amendments to the Superannuation Guarantee framework, is driving demand for accessible super solutions that protect non-traditional workers without burdening platforms with complex compliance obligations.
"We're witnessing a fundamental shift in how Australia thinks about gig worker protections," said Benjemen Elengovan, CEO and Founder of MyGigsters. "This partnership with SuperChoice means platforms can now offer their workers the same super benefits as traditional employees, with just a few lines of code. It's financial inclusion at scale – ensuring that gig work doesn't mean sacrificing your retirement."
The integrated platform using MyGigsters can activate embedded super payments for their entire worker base within weeks, not months.
Streamlined Implementation, Maximum Impact
SuperChoice is the leader in processing superannuation contributions on behalf of employers and provides the regulatory backbone for the partnership. The collaboration leverages MyGigsters' existing payment orchestration infrastructure, which has processed over $20M in transactions for marketplaces globally, supporting more than 1 million workers.
"The gig economy represents the future of work, but workers shouldn't have to choose between flexibility and financial security," said Richard Breden, CEO at SuperChoice. "By embedding our clearing house capabilities into MyGigsters' platform, we're making it
effortless for platforms to do right by their workers while staying competitive in an evolving market."
The solution integrates with MyGigsters' existing suite of embedded finance capabilities, including payment orchestration, worker onboarding and verification, and the recently launched Early Pay instant access feature. Platforms can selectively activate super contributions alongside other worker benefits, creating comprehensive financial support ecosystems.
Market Opportunity and Regulatory Alignment
Australia's gig economy is growing at 18.9% CAGR — among the highest rates globally — with regulatory frameworks increasingly focused on worker protections. The Federal Government's recent consultations on gig worker rights and superannuation portability signal growing political momentum behind retirement security for non-traditional workers.
Most gig workers fall outside the Superannuation Guarantee, meaning they accumulate little to no employer-contributed retirement savings — creating a significant social and economic challenge as the workforce becomes increasingly flexible.
The embedded super solution launches in Q2 2026, with early access available to existing MyGigsters platform partners.
