Build wealth
while you shop.
Ladies, we work hard, right? We juggle. And we care for others, usually before ourselves. Yet we’re set to end up with 28% less cash in our superannuation than men. (WTAF ?) No matter your age, life stage or wage, we’re here to close the wealth gap for women, one tap at a time.
So, how does it work?
one.
Connect your card once and shop as usual online or instore.
two.
Round up your everyday transactions to the nearest $1 or $2.
three.
We sweep this spare change into your super. Small savings can = a big difference.
four.
Plus learn about super, a few fun minutes at a time.
We’re changing the conversation around women’s wealth.
Yep, as women the odds are stacked against us. We can’t change the patriarchy overnight. But we can reframe how women build their wealth for retirement - a distant prospect for many, but one we can work towards every day. Any job, any wage, any age.
Join our community as we help turn women’s buying power into true financial independence.

Founder Tap the Gap.
FAQs

There are 4 simple steps.
Connect your card securely once and then shop as usual.
Pay the full amount on your purchase in-store or online.
Receive a % of the transaction cost back instantly. This is called ‘cashback’. It’s basically just like getting a discount. But you get the discount after you have purchased. A notification will let you know what you have earned.
We automatically add it into your super for you. You don’t have to do a thing. Easy. So instead of putting the savings in your pocket now, you’re adding it to your future wealth when it could be worth much, much more than just a few bucks.

Promise we won’t put you to sleep here. The super you probably know best is the money your employer pays for you. These amounts are called concessional contributions and have a limit of $30,000 each year, per person.
Tap the Gap cashback is known as a non-concessional contribution. Money on top of what your employer pays. You can add up to $120,000 of non-concessional contributions to your super each year. That is, ****ensuring your super balance is not over what they call the ‘general transfer balance cap’ of $1.9million. But hey, it’s pretty safe to say if you already had that much in your super, you wouldn’t be in need of Tap the Gap. And find yourself reading this FAQ. Talk to your accountant or super fund if you want the best advice on this.
