Future Super vs Spaceship Super

Compare what each fund offers, then choose investment options to put their published costs and returns side by side.

By SuperGuru Group · Research checked 11 September 2026 · Historical APRA figures to 30 June 2026

Future Super

Retail fund brand

Future Super offers five sustainably screened investment options and a pension product. Its exclusions are a central part of the product, so the screening policy deserves as much attention as the returns table.

Membership

Public membership is available under the current PDS and target market determination.

Spaceship Super

Retail fund brand

Spaceship Super is an app-based super product with several investment options. It is separate from the Spaceship Voyager investment portfolios outside super.

Membership

Public joining is available under the super PDS.

Compare fees and investment returns

Choose the actual investment pathway for each account. For lifecycle products, select the named stage relevant to you. No stage is selected automatically.

Choose an investment option to see the figures

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.

A pension account allows regular income from retirement savings. It has separate fees and investment return information.

Sources1234

The reviewed product pages do not establish a dedicated pension account. Confirm the retirement-income pathway.

Advice and support

Account-related coaching and personal advice are generally included, with exceptions such as some pension advice. The service does not cover comprehensive advice about all outside assets.

Sources1234

The app and support team provide account information. Confirm any personal advice arrangement separately.

Fee details to check

Use the current option-specific total fee table, including administration and investment costs. Insurance remains separate.

Sources1234

Use the current super fee table and the notice dated 5 June 2026, effective 7 July 2026. Voyager pricing applies to a different product.

Comparing investment performance

Check inception dates and any option changes. Ethical screening changes the investment universe, so compare risk and portfolio composition as well as fees.

Sources1234

Compare the selected super option over matching dates. Voyager's performance is not Spaceship Super performance.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Future Super

Editorial assessment

Worth researching when the stated exclusions match a person's values and the selected option matches their investment needs.

What deserves a closer look

  • Read the definitions and thresholds behind screening claims.
  • A sustainability label does not establish a suitable risk level or future return.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Spaceship Super

Editorial assessment

Relevant for people who want a digital service and are comfortable assessing its investment strategy and costs.

What deserves a closer look

  • Product names within the same app can refer to entirely different investments.
  • Older fee screenshots may predate the changes effective 7 July 2026.

Before choosing between Future Super and Spaceship 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.
