Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.
The floor is 10 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it
Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“If your company is scaling quickly and needs to automate payments across a broad range of countries with a modern tech stack, Airwallex is often considered the top choice.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Cross-border payments · direct prompt · first choice
“Choose Wise Business / Airwallex if priority is transparent mid-market FX, low transfer fees and multi-currency holding for SMB/mid-market teams.” Muse Glimmer 30B · Cross-border payments · direct prompt · first choice
“Airwallex is a strong overall choice for businesses that want international accounts, FX, payment acceptance, and payouts in one system” Llama 4 Maverick · Cross-border payments · comparative prompt · first choice
“Best for: Cross-border businesses ... Handles entire spending lifecycle across 23+ global currencies from a single account” Mistral Small · Expense management · comparative prompt · first choice
And against it
Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“Frozen business accounts, prolonged verification delays, slow customer support response times” Kimi K2 · B2B payment acceptance · negative prompt · hard negative
“the strongest endorsement I found here is from Airwallex's own content, so I'd treat it as a contender rather than an unbiased winner” GPT-5.4 mini · Cross-border payments · direct prompt · soft negative
“Can feel complex/costly for pure hedging” Grok 4.1 Fast · Cross-border payments · paraphrase prompt · soft negative
“Airwallex (for very simple setups)” Qwen 3.7 Flash · B2B payment acceptance · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer
The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Airwallex. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 308 of the 316 answers that named Airwallex and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page airwallex.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person. Read September 29, 2026.

Is this your product?
Claim this page
Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Airwallex's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Airwallex, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
What a new claim receivesHide what a new claim receives
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for Airwallex by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
- where Airwallex is named, by buyer and by framing, and which cells hold its first choices;
- the claims the models make when they name it, ranked, with the strongest and the weakest quoted;
- its vocabulary against the segment leader's, and the pages the models cited;
- who was chosen in the answers that did not name Airwallex, and every reason the record gives;
- a battlecard for each top rival: the head-to-head split, why they win, and the reservation quoted against them;
- one page of published figures cleared to show a buyer.
