We wrote this page to help anyone who pays into an account at Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited without mistakes. Remember that the BIC just identifies the bank, not the person: the IBAN or account number takes care of that.

Scams that use SWIFT codes

Be alert when someone suddenly wants you to send money to another account abroad. A correct SWIFT code tells you nothing about whether the request is genuine: scammers use real codes of real banks.

Verify changed payment details through a separate channel, such as a phone number you already know, not by replying to the message. Watch out for urgent requests, unusual wording or a sender address that is slightly off. Acted too fast? Call your bank without delay and have them start a recall.

People receiving money can be targeted as well: one known trick is a buyer who pays too much followed by a request to send back the difference to another account. A screenshot of a transfer is no proof – check your own account.

Is GMATGB22 still correct? How to check

The most reliable source for the BIC is the bank details provided by the recipient. When the code you were given does not match GMATGB22 or GMATGB22XXX, stop and ask – contact the recipient or Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited.

With a wrong code, the transfer might be delayed, be returned or end up costing more – sometimes after weeks of searching. An error in the IBAN or account number is a bigger problem because it can reach the wrong person.

Many banking apps validate the structure of an IBAN and sometimes look up the BIC automatically, but that does not prove the account belongs to the right person. Some banks now check the name with the account – do not ignore a mismatch warning. For a first payment, many people start with a small amount first.

What to give a sender who pays you at Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited

If you are waiting for a payment from another country, give the sender a complete set of details. The basics are: the account holder’s name, IBAN or account number, GMATGB22XXX and often your postal address.

Their bank might request the address of your bank. Double-check every detail before you share them – a sender rarely spots a mistake in someone else’s details.

The amount you receive is often lower than the amount sent. Fees for incoming transfers vary from bank to bank. Make clear with the sender who covers the fees, especially for larger amounts.

A note on our data

The directory on GoldexPay is compiled from publicly available sources and we update it periodically. It is possible that information here is no longer current. Counts and locations come from our directory and may differ from what Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited publishes.

Treat this page as a starting point, not as the final word – the bank details from the recipient are leading. We are a comparison service and not affiliated with Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited. If you notice a mistake, we appreciate a message.

GMATGB22 or GMATGB22XXX – which one to use?

Each SWIFT/BIC code starts with an 8-character core: a four-letter bank code, a two-letter country code and two characters for the location. The result is GMATGB22, the short form of the code.

The 11-character version adds three more characters that identify a branch or department. If the last three are XXX, they simply mean the head office.

Enter the code in one piece, in capitals and without spaces. Look out for the letter O and the digit 0 and I versus 1.

SEPA payments and the Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited BIC

Inside SEPA, euro payments to Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited use common rules. A field for the BIC is usually optional or missing in that case.

For anything other than euros and from non-SEPA countries, GMATGB22XXX remains required. If your banking app has a field for the BIC anyway, adding GMATGB22 is fine.

Instant euro transfers are increasingly available within SEPA; check with Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited whether it applies to your account. As long as the payment stays in euros, the transfer tends to be cheap; costs rise once a conversion is involved.

The British Pound and what conversion costs you

The currency of United Kingdom is the British Pound (GBP). Money sent in a different currency will be exchanged into GBP before it reaches the account, and whoever converts it chooses the rate. Each conversion eats into something, even when no fee is shown.

Where the conversion happens affects how much arrives, since every bank sets its own rate. Often it is cheaper to send GBP straight away through a transfer service with a good rate.

Rates for GBP change all the time, and some providers let you lock in a rate. If you pay regularly, a slightly better rate add up over time.

International transfers from Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited: the real cost

What you pay for a payment abroad is made up of more than one component. There is the transfer fee, sometimes charges from correspondent banks along the way and, above all, the margin on the exchange rate.

The real cost is often in the rate, not in the fee: the bank converts using an exchange rate with a margin built in. Check their rate with the mid-market rate – the rate you find on financial news sites.

For a lot of currency pairs, a specialist provider is cheaper than a traditional bank transfer – mostly thanks to the rate. GoldexPay compares what recipients receive with different providers, which makes the cheapest option easy to spot. You can still use your account at Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited; only the conversion and sending happen elsewhere.

How long does an international transfer to Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited take?

How fast a payment reaches Gazprom Marketing and Trading Limited is determined by a few things: the currency, the number of banks in between, cut-off times and differences in time zone. Bank holidays in either country can add a day or more, since banks do not process on those days. Sometimes a bank wants to know about the purpose of a payment before releasing it.

When a payment takes longer than expected, contact the sending bank about the status and the transaction reference so they can trace it along the chain. Keep your transfer receipt until the money has arrived; it contains the details a bank needs to start a trace.

The bank that sent the money is able to start an official trace; the receiving side usually has nothing to trace yet. As a recipient, it helps to look at your statements for a slightly lower amount, since fees may have been deducted.
