World launches World Money app in 150 countries

World is launching World Money, a self-custodial financial application available in more than 150 countries, according to a company announcement reported by The Block. The platform merges stablecoin payments, trading, and earning capabilities with virtual accounts. Users can maintain balances in eight currencies and transfer digital assets internationally. Integrations with Stripe, Kalshi, and Morpho are included, though specific features and asset options depend on local regulations.

For U.S. customers, a new funding pathway via Stripe permits the exchange of Apple Pay funds into stablecoins, a process that usually completes within minutes. The app also incorporates World ID verification, allowing users to access enhanced rewards on qualifying Earn programs.

World highlighted human verification as the core of its network strategy. “What ties all of this together is the foundation, or the real human network,” the firm stated. “Money moves differently when accounts belong to people. Whether you’re sending funds across the street or across continents, World ID infuses trust into transactions. As AI makes fake accounts cheaper and more convincing, a network of humans becomes the thing money rails can't fake.”
