You run a dropshipping business and pay overseas suppliers (often AliExpress / 1688 / DHgate). Volume is high, ticket size is small — fees disproportionately bite into margin.

How to handle it: Bundle supplier payments into weekly batches of 1 SWIFT wire to reduce per-ticket fees. Use a multi-currency account if possible. Track every UETR and reconcile to your supplier orders.
Whatever route you take, every SWIFT payment carries a 36-character UETR (Unique End-to-end Transaction Reference). Paste the UETR into the Ohmyfin tracker to see the latest available SWIFT status in seconds — settled, in flight, pending compliance, or rejected.
The UETR is the SWIFT-network identifier for your payment, mandatory on every payment since November 2018. It is the only way to track a payment in real time across all the correspondents in the chain.
SWIFT GPI same-currency payments often settle in minutes. Cross-currency typically 4–24 hours. Compliance-heavy corridors can take 2–5 business days.
