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

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.

Vision Super

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.

Membership

The fund has Super Saver and Personal products, plus existing defined benefit and retirement arrangements. Eligibility and insurance can differ by product.

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.

Fee details to check

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

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.

Comparing investment performance

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

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.

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.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Vision Super

Editorial assessment

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

What deserves a closer look

  • A merged legal fund can still contain materially different product histories.
  • Check whether an old investment option still exists before building a comparison around it.

Before choosing between Spaceship Super and Vision 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.
