Service update: We are aware of some temporary issues being experienced by members using a non-Australian mobile number to access their online account or the Child Care Super app, or trying to access our online joining form. We're working to restore full access as soon as possible. We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience
There are three different types of insurance you can access through Child Care Super: Income Protection, Total and Permanent Disablement and Death cover.
While we don’t want to get too bogged down in what we don’t do, it’s important to know that there are some types of insurance we (and every other super fund) are not allowed to offer through super.
We can’t offer Funeral insurance or Redundancy cover (which is separate to Income Protection cover). We also can’t offer Critical Illness cover (which is different to TPD), but we do include Terminal Illness cover as part of Death cover.
If you think you may need any of these additional types of insurance or want to know more about how they may be relevant for you, you should speak to a licensed financial advisor about getting covered outside of super.
