Payment Methods With Beam

One of the benefits of using Beam is it aims to allow you to quickly and easily select from multiple payment options for different types of super contributions.

Note: The payment options available to you will be determined by your payroll system and will appear in the Beam wizard. You’ll only be able to review payment options and update, add or remove details for direct debit accounts in the Beam Wizard.

You may be able to reduce your workload with direct debit. Beam will automatically debit the amount owing from your bank account after you have submitted your contribution in your payroll software.

Step 1. Open the Beam Wizard and click the “start” button

Step 2. Click through to step 2 in the wizard, “Payment Method”

Step 3. The account/s available are listed under “Direct Debit Requests”. And you can add additional accounts by clicking the “add another” button.

Scroll down and enter the BSB, Account Number and Account Name and then click “save”.
To remove a direct debit account, simply click on the account, its details will appear and then click “remove”.

Step 4. In the final step, you’ll need to accept the terms and conditions for your selection. Take a moment to review the details and then, if you are satisfied, accept the terms and conditions and click “next” to finish. You will now be able to select from the updated or added direct debit option/s each time you make super payments.

You can pay your contributions via EFT through your financial institution, using the account details and payment reference number provided in your payroll software after you have submitted your contribution. You must use the payment details provided and send your payment the same day as submitting the contributions in your payroll software once you’ve submitted your contribution data. Failing to send payment the same day as submitting contributions will result in delays in the nominated superannuation fund(s) receiving the contributions and could result in you failing to meet your employer superannuation obligations.

Do you want to pay each fund directly? You can choose to pay each fund using EFT. Beam can distribute your contribution data to each superannuation fund using SuperStream standards and provide you with each fund’s EFT payment details, including the payment reference numbers, so you can pay the fund(s) directly through your financial institution.
