# Super for marketplaces

> Pay superannuation for the freelancers on your marketplace, from onboarding to the fund, through one API.

## Build with MyGigsters Super

If freelancers earn through your marketplace, someone has to get their super right: collect fund details, check them, pay the contribution, and confirm it arrived. MyGigsters Super does that for you. You send the contribution, and we debit the employer, clear the payment, deliver it to the fund, and report the status back.

> [card] [API reference](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/api-reference/funds/get-active-superannuation-funds.md)

## Two ways to build

## How it works

![Flow diagram: employer, freelancer, job, timesheet or invoice, approval, super pay, direct debit from the employer's bank, super clearing house (3 work days), super fund, and status back to the employer](https://mintcdn.com/mg-payments-api/KcM6ctxvKAMKe6mX/images/super-how-it-works.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=KcM6ctxvKAMKe6mX\&q=85\&s=d30af1971f5c14896141fb66429e1886)

From a completed job to super in the freelancer's fund, with the status reported back to the employer.

**1. Work is done and approved**

A freelancer completes a job for an employer on your marketplace. The timesheet or invoice is approved.

**2. You submit the super contribution**

Your marketplace sends the contribution through the API.

**3. The employer is debited**

The contribution is collected from the employer's bank account by direct debit.

**4. The clearing house delivers it**

The superannuation clearing house passes the contribution to the freelancer's super fund. This takes about 3 working days.

**5. You get the status back**

Track each contribution through to the fund with the history and payment status endpoints, or with webhooks.

## What you can do with the API

| API | What it does | Why it's useful to you |
| - | - | - |
| [Get active superannuation funds](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/api-reference/funds/get-active-superannuation-funds.md) | Returns every super fund that is registered, active, and able to receive electronic contributions. | Populate a searchable drop-down of funds in your own product. |
| [Validate superannuation fund](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/api-reference/funds/validate-superannuation-fund.md) | Checks whether a fund's USI is correct and active. | Check the USIs your freelancers have already entered, so you know each fund can receive contributions. |
| [SuperSelector](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/api-reference/funds/superselector.md) | Searches for a freelancer's existing super funds using their name, date of birth, and postcode. | Pre-fill a freelancer's super details. It finds a match at least 60% of the time. If nothing is found, the freelancer enters their details manually. |
| [Member verification (MVR)](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/guides/member-verification.md) | Asks the fund whether it will accept contributions for a particular member. Funds can take up to 24 hours to respond. | Make sure the member you are onboarding can receive contributions with the details they gave you. |
| [Onboard employer](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/api-reference/employers/onboard-employer.md) | Creates the employer of record, with company details, contact, and payment account. | Set up the bank account that contributions are debited from. |
| [Submit contribution](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/api-reference/contributions/submit-contribution.md) | Submits super contributions. | Pay super for several freelancers and funds in one request. |
| [Get contribution history](https://docs.mygigsters.com/super/api-reference/contributions/get-contribution-history.md) | Returns the details of the contributions you have submitted. | Get a status update on every submitted contribution. |
