Information about the transition of your salary packaging to Smart™

There is nothing you need to do for the transition – we will take care of this for you. We are working closely with your current provider and SA Government to ensure your arrangements remain unchanged, and to minimise any impact during transition.

You will continue to have access to the same salary packaging benefits through Smart apart from Superannuation. You can find out more about the benefits available to you here.

If you currently salary package additional super contributions, you should have received a communication from SA Government asking you to confirm whether you want deductions to continue from 1 July 2024.

If you would like to start making voluntary contributions to your super, please contact your payroll team.

Salary packaging balances

Your account with your current provider will close on 30 June 2024 and your new Smart salary packaging will start. Any remaining funds in your account will be transferred to us after the final reconciliation of your account which is expected in mid-August.

To avoid any delay in receiving your funds, we recommend you try to clear your balance before your account is closed.

The Smart Salary Packaging and Meal Entertainment card

Your salary packaging card

If you have included a salary packaging card for living expenses and/or meal entertainment in your salary packaging, this will automatically be replaced by a Smart Salary Packaging and Meal Entertainment card. Your existing card will be cancelled on 7 July 2024 and any remaining balance transferred to us after the final reconciliation of your account which is expected in mid-August.

To avoid any delay in receiving your funds, we recommend you try to clear your balance before your card is closed.

Your new Smart card works in the same way as your current card. We will email you with full details of your new card.

Your novated lease

If you have an existing novated lease, your leasing contract will continue, and the management of your lease will transfer to Smart.

Existing fuel cards will be cancelled on 30 June 2024 and replacement cards will be sent. Your cards should arrive before your existing ones are cancelled, but if you have not received your cards and you need to fill up with fuel, please keep the receipt from the service station, log in to your Smart account and follow the steps to make a claim for a reimbursement.

If you have Roadside Assistance, it will be cancelled on 30 June 2024 and replaced with Smart Roadside Assistance provided by RAA.

If you have comprehensive insurance cover with your current provider, it will be cancelled on 30 June 2024 and replaced with comprehensive insurance from Vero Insurance, a member of the Suncorp group, unless you decide to source your own comprehensive insurance.

We will email you with full details of the changes to your leasing products.

Before your vehicle lease is due to end, we will contact you to discuss the options available to you. If you do not want to wait and would like to start talking to us about a new lease, you can contact us by calling 1300 175 244.
