Compare what each fund offers, then choose investment options to put their published costs and returns side by side.
Retail investment platform
Praemium Super brings adviser-managed portfolios and direct investment choices into a superannuation account.
An adviser helps establish the account and select the appropriate investment arrangements.
Industry fund
Vision Super now includes the former Active Super membership. Its current products need to be read alongside the transfer notices, because the merger did not make every historical option or insurance arrangement identical.
The fund has Super Saver and Personal products, plus existing defined benefit and retirement arrangements. Eligibility and insurance can differ by product.
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.
| What to compare | Praemium Super | Vision Super |
|---|---|---|
| Membership and access | An adviser helps establish the account and select the appropriate investment arrangements. Sources123 | The fund has Super Saver and Personal products, plus existing defined benefit and retirement arrangements. Eligibility and insurance can differ by product. Sources12345 |
| Accounts and products | Accumulation super, transition-to-retirement and pension. Sources123 | Super Saver, Personal, pension and transition-to-retirement products, with existing defined benefit arrangements. Sources12345 |
| Investment choices | The menu includes managed portfolios and direct investment choices. Availability, allocation limits and the operating cash balance are governed by the current investment guide. Sources123 | A range of diversified and single-asset choices. Some former Active products retain their own history and disclosures. Vision's Diversified Bonds option closed in June 2026, while the former Active Managed Cash option was consolidated in October 2025. Sources12345 |
| Insurance | Insurance access is subject to the current PDS, application requirements and the chosen policy. Have the adviser explain the insurer and any underwriting before cancelling existing cover. Sources123 | The fund publishes separate insurance documents for Super Saver and Personal. Employment type, including casual employment, can affect the application process. Sources12345 |
| Retirement income | Members can use transition-to-retirement or pension accounts when eligible, with investment and withdrawal arrangements set for that account. Sources123 | Pension and transition-to-retirement accounts are available. Existing lifetime or defined benefit pensions require their own scheme information. Sources12345 |
| Advice and support | This is an advised platform. Ongoing portfolio advice is a separate service that should have a clear scope and price. Sources123 | Vision Super Financial Planners can help with super and pension questions. The tailored-advice schedule sets out which services carry a fee. Sources12345 |
| Fee details to check | Compare the combined platform, portfolio, investment, transaction and advice charges at your balance. Cash holdings and the particular menu selections affect the calculation. Sources123 | Use the current PDS for your product, not an old Active Super cost estimate. Former Active members should check their transfer notice and current statement. Sources12345 |
| Comparing investment performance | Use the record for the actual portfolio. Praemium's platform capabilities do not supply a single investment return for all members. Sources123 | Vision publishes separate performance information where needed for former Active options. Its notes distinguish super, transition-to-retirement and retirement pension returns because their tax treatment differs. Sources12345 |

THE SUPERGURU VIEW
Especially relevant for existing Vision or former Active members assessing their current arrangements and comparing alternatives.
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.
