Change or stop contributions
You can contribute more or less, take a break from contributing or, in certain circumstances, stop your contributions altogether.
Change your contribution rate
You can contribute 2%, 4% or 8% of your before-tax pay. Changing your rate is easy.
Can you stop your contributions?
There are only limited circumstances where you can completely stop contributing to KiwiSaver, but you could consider taking a break with a contributions holiday.
Take a contributions holiday
If you're an employee, once you've been a member for 12 months you can take a break from saving - this is called a contributions holiday.
