Do VPS salaries include super?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 3:14 pm

When you’re looking for a place to host your business, a VPS (virtual private server) might be the best option for you. A VPS offers several benefits over a regular hosting account, including that you can control your own hardware and software, and you can often get better pricing.

However, one important question to consider is whether your VPS salary includes super.

In most cases, your VPS salary will not include super. This is because your VPS is a dedicated server, meaning that it’s not used to host other websites or applications.

PRO TIP: Superannuation is not typically included in VPS salaries. Employees should be aware that they will need to make separate arrangements to ensure that they are meeting their superannuation obligations.

Therefore, your VPS is not considered a part of your business and, as such, you won’t be eligible for the super contributions that your business would be eligible for.

There are a few exceptions to this rule. If your VPS is used to host part of your business, then you may be eligible for super contributions.

Additionally, if your VPS is used to provide customer support or to store data, then you may be eligible for super contributions. However, it’s important to check with your accountant or financial advisor to ensure that you’re eligible for these benefits.

Overall, a VPS salary does not include super, but there are a few exceptions that you should be aware of. If you’re unsure whether your VPS is included in your business, you should speak to your accountant or financial advisor.
