# Super for Private Function Bookings (Agents) | Hot Giggity

### Performer eligibility — ATO guidance reviewed 13 October 2026

> An ABN, invoice, hobbyist status or retirement does not automatically remove super obligations for individual performers. Check legal liability for the performance payment and any applicable exception. Hot Giggity’s entity setting and invoicing model must reflect the actual engagement; they do not decide legal liability.
> 
> [Read the eligibility and responsibility guide](https://20228549.hs-sites.com/hg-support/superannuation-compliance-how-hot-giggity-supports-it?hsLang=en-au) or the [ATO performer guidance](https://www.ato.gov.au/businesses-and-organisations/super-for-employers/work-out-if-you-have-to-pay-super/super-for-sportspeople-performers-film-makers-and-related-activities) (updated 16 September 2026).

This article explains the Private Function booking, deposit and balance invoice workflow where SG is applicable. Assess eligibility and legal responsibility separately: a private individual directly hiring a performer and an agency hiring a performer in its own right can have different outcomes under the ATO rules.

### What you’ll see

When you select Private Function on a new booking where the act owner is a sole trader, the Super breakdown panel appears in Fee Details.

**Create Booking → Private Function.**

1. In Fee Details enter the Performance fee (ex Tax) and your Agent commission. Leave Fee includes super Off (recommended).
2. Hot Giggity will calculate the Super paid to Act at the current SG rate and show you the Total to Venue (ex Tax) figure.
3. Set Deposit amount (or percentage) and the Balance is calculated automatically.
4. Choose Deposit Due and Balance Due dates.
5. Click Process Booking

### Notify Client

1. In Notify Client, tick Send invoice(s) to client and send.
2. Hot Giggity issues two invoices: 
     - Deposit invoice (deposit fee only, GST calculated in the usual way).
     - Balance invoice (shows an SG line item that is GST-free and excludes that SG amount from the GST base automatically).

### What the client sees

- **Deposit invoice** —-standard tax invoice for the deposit on the agreed fee (no SG line). Example: the deposit invoice displays the fee, GST base, and GST at 10% on the fee; there’s **no super line** on this deposit.
- **Balance invoice** - includes a separate line “Superannuation (aggregated)” marked GST Free; GST is calculated on the fee excluding super (the invoice table shows “GST base (ex-super)” and the GST total is computed on that base only).

This presentation makes the SG component clear to the hirer while keeping the GST treatment compliant (SG is **not** subject to GST; GST is applied to the **fee excluding super**). The provided examples show exactly how these lines appear to the client.
