Pick who’s playing, enter the fee and how much is labour, then save your invoice as a PDF.
Example only. Not legal, tax or financial advice, and not legally binding. Check with your own accountant or the ATO.
You invoice for the whole act and pay the others yourself, so super is on your share only (ATO Example 12). Each performer hired directly? See ATO situations.
Includes their super. You keep the rest, after any agent’s fee:
The set amounts come to more than the fee left after any agent’s fee, so you’d be out of pocket.
Labour pays you to perform. The rest is expenses like gear, PA hire or travel. If you don’t say, an agent may count it all as labour.

Split between performers
Just you. All the super goes into your fund.
Each other performer invoices you. You pay them, and pay their super into their funds.
The agent’s fee comes off the whole fee before it is split, so it lowers everyone’s share. You pay the agent’s bill.
Set how much of each performer’s share is labour.
| Performer | Labour % | Labour (super included) | Pay before super | Super | Expenses | Share of fee |
