A stapled super fund is an existing superannuation account that is linked—or "stapled"—to an employee, following them as they move between jobs. The stapled super fund service allows you to request the employee’s stapled super fund details directly from the ATO. Before you can request the details of an employee's stapled super fund, you need to set up the integration with the ATO. This article explains how to set up that integration.
