I think it is a requirement of the Guvment super reforms. One part of that is a requirement that super contributions (the funds transfer and contribution notice) are paid electronically - called
Superstream
Westpac operates a super contribution gateway called
QuickSuper. It is the only such Gateway in Australia. My industry super fund has used QuickSuper for employer contribution for years.

Have you noticed the ATO changes to online services user verification including changes to the webpage to access the ATO activity statement portal?. They don't give clear instructions. I really think the mob that works in the ATO webpage UI have never had to use it.
At least Xero can lodge the BAS directly to ATO from within the application so you don't have to go into the ATO portal.
