The Global Distribution System
for a $1.3 trillion industry

"While airlines revolutionised travel with Global Distribution Systems decades ago, container shipping - a US$1.3 trillion industry - still operates through fragmented, manual processes that bleed capital. SWiM Global is here to change that."

The Opportunity

The world's most transformable industry

Container shipping moves 90% of everything traded globally. Yet it remains chronically inefficient - no independent booking system, no reliable digital payments rail, no loyalty framework. Everything is still done through brokers, faxes, and emails.

SWiM Global has built the infrastructure to change that. By introducing the world's first GDS for container shipping - modelled on the systems that transformed aviation - SWiM is positioned to capture a structural, network-effect-driven position at the very centre of global trade.

With the technology built, the industry engaged, and three complementary revenue streams in place, the window to be an early investor is open now.

USD $36BNo-Show Booking Cost

Eliminated entirely by SWiM GDS deposit taking, escrow and pre-paid model.

USD $20BEmpty Container Waste

Futile repositioning solved at source through deposit taking, escrow and pre-paid model.

USD $26BBad Debt & Recovery

Collection costs wiped out by SWiM's deposit taking, escrow and pre-paid model.

USD $80T+B2B Payments Market

Total addressable market for SWiM PAY and REWARDS.

The Ecosystem

Three platforms. One unified ecosystem.

Each platform generates independent revenue whilst reinforcing the others - creating compounding network effects.

SWiM GDS - Global Distribution System
// 01 Global Distribution System

The world's first independent, neutral digital B2B Global Distribution System for container shipping - the maritime equivalent of the GDS platforms that transformed the aviation industry.

  • Search and book container slots for any global port pair, 24/7/365, over the horizon (up to 12 months in advance)
  • Deposit taking, escrow and pre-paid model eliminates no-shows and guarantees full payment
  • Freight Forwarders earn US$ Cash SWiM REWARDS on all bookings made in SWiM GDS
  • Saves the industry up to USD $82B in recoverable annual costs
  • Fully digital document exchange - from paper to platform
SWiM PAY - Cross-Border Payments
// 02 Cross-Border Payments

A bespoke, fit-for-purpose local and cross-border multi-currency e-commerce payments platform built for B2B and B2C markets worldwide - the payments layer powering the entire SWiM ecosystem.

  • Instant cross-border payments in your currency, anytime, anywhere
  • 49 wallet-to-wallet currencies for global digital payments
  • No minimum transfer amounts - unlike traditional services
  • Market-leading FX rates with full transparency
  • SWiM PAY LATER: world's first B2B Buy Now Pay Later facility
SWiM REWARDS - B2B Loyalty Programme
// 03 B2B Loyalty Programme

A unique, US Dollar-backed cash rewards scheme designed to incentivise participation and drive retention across the entire SWiM ecosystem - redeemable in up to 52 currencies globally.

  • US Dollar Cash Rewards earned on all payments transacted via SWiM PAY
  • Redeemable as cash in up to 52 currencies globally
  • Capacity to distribute up to USD $1.6B in rewards annually
  • Zero-cost new revenue stream for marketplace partners
  • First B2B cash rewards scheme of its kind in global trade
Market Validation

Remarkable traction from day one.

SWiM's December 2024 soft launch - restricted exclusively to the maritime industry - produced extraordinary early results that validate the platform and the market's demand for change.

7,200+Freight Forwarders

Freight Forwarders, representing 25% of all freight forwarders globally, waitlisted and being onboarded to SWiM GDS following the December 2024 soft launch.

104Shipping Lines

International container lines waitlisted and being onboarded to SWiM GDS, representing 55% by market capacity.

$89M+Year 1 Revenue Projected

USD projected revenues in the first full year of operations across the SWiM ecosystem, scaling to $382M by Year 5.

55%Global Shipping Capacity

Total Addressable Market

A market built for generational returns

SWiM's three platforms collectively address some of the largest and most structurally sound markets in global commerce - each independently substantial, and mutually reinforcing.

The addressable cost saving of USD $82 billion per annum within container shipping alone represents a recoverable, structural opportunity - not a speculative projection.

Strategic Rationale

Why now is the moment

Post-Pandemic Digital Urgency
COVID-19 exposed the catastrophic fragility of manual, paper-based shipping processes. The industry is now actively seeking digital transformation and is more receptive than at any previous point in its history.
First-Mover Advantage
No independent GDS exists for container shipping. SWiM has the technology built, the industry engaged, and network effects already compounding. The cost and time to replicate this position is prohibitive for any late entrant.
Integrated Flywheel Effect
SWiM GDS, SWiM PAY and SWiM REWARDS are designed to be mutually reinforcing - each platform drives adoption of the others, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem with deep, structural switching costs.
Clear IPO Pathway
With significant early traction already secured, SWiM is targeting an IPO within 18-24 months. Pre-IPO investors are positioned to capture maximum value uplift ahead of the public listing event.
Inherently Global Scale
SWiM's platforms are borderless by design. SWiM PAY supports 49 currencies; SWiM REWARDS pays out in 52; SWiM GDS covers every global port pair. International scale is a feature of the architecture, not a future ambition.
Multiple Revenue Streams
Transaction fees, subscription revenue, FX spread income, loyalty programme commissions, and marketplace fees - SWiM's diversified model ensures no single point of revenue failure across its ecosystem.
