How does super work for sole-trader artists at my venue?

When you book a sole-trader artist through Hot Giggity, superannuation is automatically calculated on every invoice. The platform handles per-player super for multi-player acts, applies the correct entity-type rules and keeps Super Ledgers updated in real time. From 1 July 2026, HG Super Pay routes payments directly from your bank account to artists' super funds.

What is the Super Ledger and how does it help my venue?

Super Ledgers give you a real-time view of every super obligation across your bookings: Super I Owe (what you need to pay to artists' funds), Super Owed to Me (what upstream has billed you for) and pending payment status with due dates. Everything is exportable and audit-ready, so your finance team stays on top of compliance without spreadsheets.

How do I register my venue for HG Super Pay?

Registering is a one-time setup inside Hot Giggity. You verify your venue as an employer, connect your nominated bank account and confirm your default super clearing house or Xero connection. Once registered, you can trigger super payment runs directly from the platform. HG Super Pay launched on 1 July 2026 and is live now.
