Centric Super

Retail investment platform

Membership

Designed for members working with a financial adviser. Confirm the available service and minimum balance with the adviser.

Team Super

Industry fund

Team Super is the fund formed from Mine Super and TWUSUPER. Its specialist focus is transport, energy and mining.

Membership

The fund serves workers in its core industries and other eligible members. Former Mine and TWUSUPER members should check their current division and insurance documents.

The costs and returns belong to the selected product, option or lifecycle stage.

Source: APRA Comprehensive Product Performance Package 2026, published 28 August 2026. Fees reflect the reporting year to 30 June 2026, are net of tax, use standard arrangements and exclude member-activity fees. Dollar figures are rounded. They are not a current quote. Check the latest PDS for changes, insurance premiums and any separately charged advice.

Returns are annualised historical results. Different return bases, risk levels and periods cannot be treated as interchangeable. MySuper net returns use a $50,000 representative balance even when you change the fee balance. A lifecycle stage return does not track a person moving between stages. Missing figures mean not reported, not zero. Past returns do not predict future returns. Read our method and APRA's definitions.

Accounts and products

Centric Super accumulation and retirement accounts.

Superannuation, pre-retirement pension and account-based pension.

Investment choices

Centric Choice provides a broad investment menu. Centric One centres on multi-asset model portfolios, with consolidated online reporting.

Sources123

Pre-mixed and single-asset options let members build their own mix. Pension and super defaults follow the rules for their particular account, rather than a single default being suitable for every member.

Sources12345
Insurance

Insurance arrangements should be checked in the current super disclosure and the proposal supplied by your adviser; investment-platform access alone does not establish your cover.

Sources123

Insurance divisions reflect the industries the fund serves. The merger included premium and definition changes, so a pre-merger quote is not enough to compare current cover.

Sources12345
Retirement income

The platform supports transition-to-retirement and pension accounts.

Sources123

Both pre-retirement and account-based pensions are available, with their own investment and fee disclosures.

Sources12345
Advice and support

Portfolio selection is part of an advised service. Ask for the ongoing advice scope and fee in writing.

Sources123

Team offers a complimentary initial appointment. Advice on how the account is invested is available at no extra cost; other personal advice has separate fees.

Sources12345
Fee details to check

Add the platform and account charges, cash-account margin, investment costs, transaction costs and any adviser remuneration. A monthly account fee alone does not describe the whole cost.

Sources123

The merger page advertises a fixed super administration charge of 75 cents a week. Add any percentage administration charge, investment costs, transaction costs and insurance from the current super PDS. Pension fees use a different schedule.

Sources12345
Comparing investment performance

There is no single Centric return. Compare the actual model or selected holdings after all relevant costs, using a consistent period and risk level.

Sources123

Read the option history carefully around the merger and any strategy changes. A long record can include a predecessor portfolio and is not automatically the record of every former TWUSUPER option.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Centric Super

Editorial assessment

May suit someone who has a clear reason for using an adviser and wants that adviser to manage investments within super.

What deserves a closer look

  • The extra services need to justify their total cost.
  • Cash is part of the platform arrangement and can affect both fees and investment exposure.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Team Super

Editorial assessment

A relevant comparison for workers whose occupation makes insurance definitions, exclusions and claims support especially important.

What deserves a closer look

  • Compare the insurance division that would cover your actual job.
  • The fixed weekly fee is only one part of total cost; it should not be used as a total-fee headline.

Before choosing between Centric Super and Team Super

Use the membership rules to establish which accounts are available to you. Then compare the total price of the investment option and cover you need. A lower fee or higher historical return alone does not tell you which fund is suitable.

Ask both funds to confirm insurance acceptance, exclusions, waiting periods and whether cover would change when you leave your employer. Obtain advice before giving up a defined benefit or an insurance policy you may not be able to replace. ASIC Moneysmart explains the comparison checks.
