Retail investment platform
Platformplus Super Wrap is an adviser-oriented account for managing a portfolio across super and pension.
Read the current PDS with your adviser to confirm access and the appropriate accumulation or pension arrangement.
Industry fund
Rest pairs its Growth default with indexed and other investment choices. Its published indexed investment costs make it useful to compare total account charges carefully.
Check the Rest Super or Rest Corporate PDS for the relevant membership and insurance terms. This profile covers the public Rest Super proposition rather than every employer arrangement.
Choose the actual investment pathway for each account. For lifecycle products, select the named stage relevant to you. No stage is selected automatically.

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.

| Membership and access | Read the current PDS with your adviser to confirm access and the appropriate accumulation or pension arrangement. Sources1234 | Check the Rest Super or Rest Corporate PDS for the relevant membership and insurance terms. This profile covers the public Rest Super proposition rather than every employer arrangement. Sources5 |
| Accounts and products | Accumulation and pension portfolios. Sources1234 | Rest Super, Rest Corporate and Rest Pension have separate disclosure documents. Rest Super Rest Corporate Rest Pension Sources45 |
| Investment choices | The menu spans managed funds, managed accounts, listed investments, ETFs, cash and term deposits. The approved menu sets limits and availability. Sources1234 | Growth Growth is Rest's default option. The choice menu includes Growth - Indexed, Australian and overseas share index options, and Sustainable Growth. An indexed option's investment fee does not include every charge incurred by the account. Sources12 |
| Insurance | The available PDS states that Platformplus does not offer insurance. Existing cover elsewhere cannot be replaced through this account. Sources1234 | Rest publishes separate insurance guides for Super and Corporate accounts. Check the active cover shown in your account, its benefit definitions and current premiums; insurance changes and employer arrangements can affect what you receive. Sources3 |
| Retirement income | Pension accounts and regular contribution arrangements are described in the product's super and pension materials. Sources1234 | Rest Pension has a separate PDS and investment information. Use its retirement product details when comparing payments, investment choice and charges rather than assuming a Rest Super comparison also covers retirement. Sources4 |
| Advice and support | Adviser remuneration is separately agreed and authorised. The trustee does not select a personal portfolio for every member. Sources1234 | Simple personal advice about a Rest account is generally available at no extra cost. More complex advice can incur a fee and Rest states that this may not be payable from the Rest account. Sources3 |
| Fee details to check | Add platform charges, underlying investment costs, cash margins, transactions and adviser fees. Use your expected holdings and balance for the estimate. Sources1234 | Rest's fees combine a weekly administration charge, a percentage administration charge, costs paid from reserves, investment costs and transaction costs. Buy spreads can apply when money enters an option. The current fee page says investment and transaction costs are forecast to increase for the year ending June 2027, so the displayed prior-year cost is not a guaranteed future quote. Sources34 |
| Comparing investment performance | Assess the actual portfolio and total costs. WRAP Super's fund-level data also covers other divisions and does not identify a Platformplus member's result. Sources1234 | Use returns for the exact option and account type, with a common end date and a clear statement of fees deducted. Growth, Growth - Indexed and Sustainable Growth are distinct strategies and should not share a single performance figure. Keep Growth and Growth - Indexed separate in all fee and return tables. State whether the comparison includes costs paid from reserves and buy spreads. Sources123456 |

THE SUPERGURU VIEW
Rest is worth looking at when building a shortlist of simple indexed portfolios. The useful comparison is the whole annual cost at your balance, including administration and any spread on contributions. A zero investment-fee line can be accurate while the account still has other charges.
Based on the cited product features. These are general reasons to investigate the fund, not a personal recommendation. Supporting sources.
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.
