White-labelling your SMSF back office is no longer just a “Class or BGL?” software choice. ASIC says SMSF auditors now oversee more than $1 trillion in assets across more than 672,000 funds, and it took 64 actions against SMSF auditors in the 2025–26 financial year. When an outsourcer slips, the fallout still lands on your letterhead and your client relationships. This guide compares five providers that give Melbourne firms different mixes of brand control, compliance support and automation, so you can choose an operating model well before the June rush.

What white-label SMSF administration actually means

White-label SMSF work means the reports carry your firm’s name while someone else, or software, maintains the ledger. In practice, that takes one of three operating models.

Software-only

A licence to Class, BGL or another platform keeps every feed, exception and client email on your desk. The branding is cosmetic, not operational.

Managed service

A remote accounting team codes transactions, drafts financials and coordinates the audit, while reports and client emails still carry your letterhead. You approve the pack before lodgement.

Hybrid

You rent the software and bring in the provider’s people when workloads spike. Strategy and client advice stay in-house; peak-season processing moves out.

Automation claims, audit turnaround and AI extras make sense only after this choice is clear.

Prices as published in September 2026. Use the table to pick two contenders for demos, then read the profiles below.

1. SMSF Australia: a managed service with in-house lawyers

SMSF Australia specialises in SMSF administration for accounting firms, preparing the financials, tax return and independent audit under a business-to-business white-label arrangement. The firm describes itself as SMSF accountants and lawyers who work only on SMSFs. It delivers the work in Class Super and Cloudoffis and can also use BGL360. You keep live access to its Class environment to pull reports, and it will lodge returns under its own agency at no extra cost, or you can lodge them yourself.

Price tiers (audit included)

Fund complexityAnnual fee (GST excl.)
Basic: listed shares, managed funds, cash$1,300
Complex: up to 2 properties, crypto or collectables$1,600
Very complex: 3+ properties, unlisted assets, NFTsFrom $2,000

Any crypto investment must be permitted by the fund’s trust deed and covered by its investment strategy, held in a wallet in the fund’s name rather than a member’s, not bought from a member or related party, and valued at 30 June.

The independent audit is arranged through the firm’s wholesale audit providers and is included in the fixed fee. The electronic service address is provided through Class, and the firm handles establishments and wind-ups.

Why it stands out

  • Legal and accounting work sit in one team, which helps with deed reviews, compliance breaches and ATO audits. 
  • Fixed, audit-inclusive pricing is published. 
  • No minimum number of funds, and no monthly fees or direct debits from the fund. 
  • It completes multiple years of backlog at once.

SMSF Australia suits firms that want a white-labelled back office plus legal support when compliance issues come up.

2. SMSF Engine: Melbourne-based admin for Class and BGL

SMSF Engine lets you outsource SMSF production without migrating software. It supports both BGL360 and Class and serves accountants and financial advisers from its office at 555 Collins Street, Melbourne.

Service rhythmAdmin fee (annualised)Bundled audit
Daily$1,240 per fund$380
Annual$990 per fund$380

A standalone audit starts from $595. When the audit is bundled, SMSF Engine coordinates the full process and you receive a management letter and the independent auditor’s report.

Why firms shortlist SMSF Engine

  • Support for two platforms avoids a software migration. 
  • An Australian-based team with a Melbourne address. 
  • Itemised pricing makes client quotes simple.

Ask whether published prices include GST, and whether crypto or property funds attract extra audit charges.

3. SuperConcepts / SuperMate: a hybrid that scales from software to full service

SuperMate starts at $11 + GST per fund per month and can expand into full outsourcing through SuperConcepts’ administration service. Every plan includes unlimited users, Data Hero AI document extraction and registry data feeds, and the ecosystem lists more than 260 data feeds. The platform also offers actuarial and audit tools and an API for integration with your practice systems.

Where SuperConcepts shines

  • Elastic capacity. Keep coding in-house and hand overflow work to the administration team. 
  • Automation. AI document extraction and transaction matching cut manual entry.

Managed-service pricing is by quote, so compare software, labour and audit on the same basis. Ask where support calls are handled and who owns errors when work moves between your staff and theirs.

4. Class Super: automation when you keep SMSF work in-house

Class is software, not an outsourcing service. If your own team will reconcile transactions and lodge returns, Class provides the automation. In July 2026 it launched Intelligent Matching, which recommends matches for routine transactions, highlights exceptions and gives confidence ratings, plus AI-generated financial reporting videos for trustees.

The platform offers more than 200 direct data feeds for banks, brokers and wraps, and those feeds carry an ASAE 3402 assurance report, which helps with audit work. A One-Click Audit integration lets audit partners pull the fund file.

Pricing is by quote. Choose Class when feed coverage and bulk processing matter more than offloading labour.

5. BGL Simple Fund 360: per-fund pricing for in-house teams

BGL prices Simple Fund 360 per fund. Its Bank Data Service costs $45 + GST per fund a year, with a minimum of five funds. SmartDocs uses AI to read bank statements and supporting documents into the ledger.

As with Class, your staff still do the production work, so budget for data services and internal time when you present the “all-in” number to partners. Security reviews matter too: if your practice runs a formal compliance automation program, ask each vendor for its security evidence.

How to read the options

  • Need the audit bundled? SMSF Australia and SMSF Engine include or bundle it; Class and BGL leave it to your auditor. 
  • Need two platforms? SMSF Australia and SMSF Engine work in both Class and BGL360. 
  • Want to keep production in-house? Class, BGL or SuperMate software.

Conclusion

White-labelling is a choice between renting software, renting a team, or both. The five providers here sit at different points on that line, and the right answer depends on how much of the ledger you want to keep in-house and whether the independent audit is inside the fee. Confirm the platform, the audit treatment and who lodges the return, then move a pilot group of funds first.
