g4C Pay and Trace enables corporates to generate their own UETR (the end-to-end transaction reference used to track the payment across the SWIFT network) and provides them with an enriched payment status report that contains the real-time tracking details of the payment, including fees and throughput times at intermediary banks. This reporting (payment status report), which comes in a standardised XML format, can be incorporated directly into ERP systems or TMS, which is a direct benefit for multi-banked corporates.
The g4C Pay and Trace service helps centralising the traceability information into the corporate’s own system, in a format that is easily integrated. Based on the features proposed by their vendor, corporates have a consolidated view for all their cross-border payments from all their banking partners that have enabled the g4C service.
BNP Paribas was amongst the pilot banks in the SWIFT g4C working group, and contributed to the definition of the project standards. When the testing phase began, it was done in close collaboration with corporate clients and several vendors, also members of the gpi workgroups, to make sure their requirements were met.
