Inside your annual statement

Published August 2026

Updated 21 Aug 2026

Your annual statement is more than a snapshot of your super. It’s a simple way to check in and make sure your account is on track. 

How you'll get your statement

We'll send your annual statement based on your preferred communication method.  

Most members receive their annual statement electronically. If you’ve chosen to receive paper communications, you’ll receive your statement by mail. If you're registered for Member Online or the Hostplus app, you'll be able to access your statement electronically once it's available.

Want to know how you’ll receive your statement? Log in to Member Online and go to ‘My profile’ > ‘Communication preferences’ to confirm your current delivery method. 

What’s in your statement?

Your annual statement contains information specific to your account, which may include: 

  • your account balance at the end of the statement period 
  • your personal details 
  • any beneficiary nominations you’ve made  
  • fees, costs and deductions 
  • investment returns 
  • your investment options and how they’ve performed over time. 

If you receive a paper statement, you’ll also find a QR code to download the Hostplus app, making it easy to check your balance, track your investment performance, and manage your account on the go. 

Additional information by account type

Your statement will also show: 

  • contributions made to your account during the year 
  • insurance details, including premiums deducted (if you have cover) 
  • BPAY details if you’d like to make additional voluntary contributions to your account. 

Your statement will show details of your pension account and the payments you’ve received during the year, including any additional withdrawals. 

As your benefit is generally calculated using a formula rather than an account balance alone, the information shown will be specific to your defined benefit arrangement.

Your statement may include: 

  • your estimated benefit entitlement 
  • salary or service information used in benefit calculations 
  • any accumulation or other components linked to your account
  • insurance details, including any premium deductions (if you have cover). 

Use your statement for a quick super check-up

Your annual statement isn't just a snapshot of your account. It's a valuable tool that can help you understand your progress and uncover ways to improve your retirement outcomes. Here are some tips to get started. 

 

Make sure your details are up to date 

Check that your personal and contact details are current so we can reach you when needed.  
 

Review your beneficiaries 

Check any beneficiary nominations shown on your statement to make sure they’re up to date and still reflect your wishes, particularly if you’ve experienced a major life event such as marriage, divorce or having children. 
 

Check transactions and contributions 

Take a look at the money that moved in and out of your account during the year, such as contributions, insurance premiums, or transfers. This can help you confirm everything has been received and recorded correctly. 
 

Understand your investments  

It’s worth checking whether your current investment options still suit your goals, circumstances and time horizon. If you’re considering a change, our handy guide can help you choose.  

Remember, investment returns can be positive or negative, and past performance isn't a guarantee of future performance. 
 

Review your insurance cover 

If you have insurance through your super, your statement may show your cover details and premiums deducted from your account during the year. Consider whether your cover still suits your needs and circumstances. You can also use our insurance calculators to explore what may be right for you. 

Need help understanding your statement?

If you have any questions, contact us online or call us on 1300 467 875. If you have a pension account, you can call 1300 348 546.
