Online portal launched to help employers with pension auto-enrolment

A new online portal has been launched to support and facilitate employers’ engagement with MyFutureFund, the new automatic retirement savings scheme.

The MyFutureFund Employer Portal provides employers with the platform to complete their profile and choose a payment method in advance of the start of the scheme in January 2026.

Resources to help employers meet their obligation to inform employees of their enrolment will also be provided directly through the secure mailbox on the portal.

Social protection minister Dara Calleary said: “MyFutureFund is a landmark initiative that provides employees with a secure financial future when they retire.

“Today I am officially launching the MyFutureFund Employer Portal. This will ensure that employers have sufficient time to complete their profiles in advance of the commencement of the scheme on 1 January.

“Completing your company profile on the portal will only take around five minutes and is essential to ensure that all steps are completed in order for your company to be in compliance with the scheme.

“It is a transformative scheme for the country which is designed to be as seamless as possible for employers, a system that works in the background as they carry on their normal business.”

All employers need to access the portal is go to myfuturefund.ie and log in using their ROS PREM certificate before 31 December and complete their company profile, set up a payment method, and run payroll as usual.

Once registered, employers will be able to view contributions paid and owed, get notifications sent directly to their nominated contact person, contact customer support, check their contributions record and update their details.

Agents will also be able to undertake these steps for employers using the same credentials they already use for accessing Revenue online services on behalf of their clients.

Those who don’t use payroll software will still be able to make payments directly through the portal.

The National Automatic Enrolment Retirement Savings Authority (NAERSA) will handle all the administration including enrolling employees, collecting contributions and managing investments. They will also handle opt-ins/-outs and suspensions.
