Case Study: Gimme Swag reduces FX fees and simplifies global payments with Airwallex

How Gimme Swag reduced FX fees, simplified global payments, and paid vendors faster, all while scaling internationally with Airwallex

Gimme Swag, a New York-based merchandise company that creates custom swag and collectibles for content creators and gamers, needed a better way to handle international growth. As it expanded into new markets, it struggled with fragmented payment tools, FX fees, and the complexity of accepting audience payments and paying overseas vendors in local currencies.

With Airwallex’s Payments and Global Accounts, Gimme Swag centralized international collections and payouts, accepted 130+ currencies and 160+ local payment methods, and paid global vendors same day or faster. Airwallex helped reduce FX costs with interbank rates and fewer hidden fees, simplified reconciliation, and improved vendor trust through faster, more flexible cross-border payments.
