What is KiwiSaver and why does your choice matter?

KiwiSaver is New Zealand's voluntary retirement savings scheme. Most people stay in the default fund they were assigned — often a conservative option that may not match their age, goals, or risk tolerance. Over a 30-year career, the difference between the right fund and the wrong one can be tens of thousands of dollars.

What is KiwiSaver and why does your choice matter?

KiwiSaver is New Zealand's voluntary retirement savings scheme. When you start working, you're automatically enrolled — and your employer contributes alongside you.

The problem? Most people stay in the default fund they were assigned, often a conservative option that may not match their age, goals, or risk tolerance. Over a 30-year career, the difference between the right fund and the wrong one can be tens of thousands of dollars.

Find My Fund helps you cut through the noise. Compare providers, understand fees, and find the fund that actually fits your life.

6 ways to get more from your KiwiSaver

Quick wins and smart moves to maximise your retirement savings.

Are you in the right fund?
Check your fund type

Never chose a fund? You're in a default balanced fund. There are 5 types — Defensive, Conservative, Balanced, Growth, and Aggressive. The right one depends on your age and when you'll need the money. A 25-year-old in a conservative fund could miss out on decades of higher growth.

Government contribution
Up to $260/year free

The government adds 25c for every $1 you contribute, up to $260/year. You need to put in at least $1,042.86 between 1 July and 30 June to get the full amount. Your employee payroll deductions count — but employer contributions don't. Self-employed or on a contribution holiday? You'll need to make voluntary payments directly to your provider.

Increase your contribution
~$8/week

Bumping your employee contribution from 3.5% to 4.5% on a $60k salary costs about $8 a week — less than two coffees. That extra 1% goes straight into your KiwiSaver and compounds over decades. The earlier you increase it, the bigger the difference at retirement.

Tax rate check
Check your PIR

Your KiwiSaver returns are taxed at your Prescribed Investor Rate — 10.5%, 17.5%, or 28% based on your income. If your rate is too high, you're losing returns to unnecessary tax. IRD now reconciles this at year-end, but getting it right upfront means more money stays invested and compounding. Ask your provider or check your rate on myIR.

After-fee returns
Is your fund delivering?

A fund charging 1% that returns 12% beats a 0.25% fund returning 6%. Don't just compare fees — compare what you actually get after all costs are deducted. That's the number that grows your balance.

First home withdrawal
Know the trade-off

After 3+ years as a member, you can withdraw most of your KiwiSaver for a first home. But pulling $30k at age 28 could mean ~$150k less at 65 due to lost compound growth. Property is also an asset that grows — just understand both sides before you decide.

6-step KiwiSaver health check
1
Check your fund type. Never chose one? You're in a default balanced fund. Make sure it matches your age and goals.
2
Getting the full $260? You need to contribute at least $1,042.86/yr of your own money. Payroll deductions count — employer contributions don't. If you're self-employed or on a contribution holiday, set up a $20/week auto-payment to your provider.
3
Bump your employee contribution. Going from 3.5% to 4.5% costs about $8/week on a $60k salary — that small increase compounds into a big difference over time.
4
Compare after-fee returns. A higher-fee fund can still outperform a low-fee fund. Focus on what you actually receive after all costs.
5
Check your PIR. Your KiwiSaver returns are taxed at 10.5%, 17.5%, or 28% based on your income. Too high = unnecessary tax drag on your returns. IRD now reconciles at year-end, but getting it right upfront keeps more money compounding.
6
Review your provider. Not all providers perform equally. Compare yours against others on returns, fees, and service — switching is free and takes 10–35 days.

About

Our Mission

Helping Kiwis make better-informed decisions for a better retirement.

Why we built this

Most New Zealanders are in a KiwiSaver fund they never chose, paying fees they've never checked, earning returns they've never compared. The information exists — it's just scattered across PDFs, provider websites, and government registers. We bring it together in one place so every Kiwi can make informed decisions about their retirement savings.

Find My Fund is a free, independent education platform. We believe that when people understand their KiwiSaver — what fund they're in, what it costs, and how it compares — they make better choices. Better choices compound into a better retirement.

What we do

Compare every KiwiSaver fund using publicly available data from the Disclose Register — returns, fees, holdings, risk, and provider details.

What we don't do

We don't sell funds, take commissions, or provide financial advice. We're an educational tool — not a financial adviser. For personalised advice, speak with a licensed adviser.

Our tools — the Leaderboard, fund comparisons, projections calculator, and fund quiz — are designed to make KiwiSaver simple and accessible for everyone, whether you've never looked at your fund or you review it every quarter.

About

How We Compare

Where the data comes from and how we use it.

All data on Find My Fund comes from the Disclose Register, maintained by the Companies Office. KiwiSaver providers are legally required to report their fund data quarterly — returns, fees, holdings, and fund size. We pull it, clean it, and present it so you can compare every fund in one place.

Data source

Disclose Register — regulatory compliance data that every KiwiSaver provider is legally required to report.

Update frequency

Quarterly — when new data is published, we update returns, fees, holdings, and fund details across the platform.
