Does anyone know what U-wire means on this listing? Their other listing make it clear if it’s either underwire or soft cups.

For that suit specifically, it's referring to the U-shaped wire gathering the fabric in the crevice between her breasts. Details specify "sewn-in soft cup bra," which is not a kind of theirs that I have tried.
If you are worried about things staying up, I would avoid a bandeau top. I have worn tons of tankini tops from them (no bandeaus, although for the opposite reason--they slide down me because there's nothing to prevent them doing that and I end up having to tug at my suit, which is uncomfortable and which I also don't like as a look) and they all have underwires.
