World launches self‑custodial “super app” World Money

World has introduced World Money, a self‑custody financial super app that combines stablecoin payments, digital‑asset rewards and on‑chain trading. The rollout began on Thursday and now covers more than 150 countries, with feature sets varying by region.

Core functionalities

• Send supported digital assets, including stablecoins, to a recipient’s World username.
• Deposit eligible assets to earn rewards.
• Buy and sell digital assets through integrated exchanges.

Mini Apps ecosystem

The platform integrates third‑party “Mini Apps” such as Kalshi, Credit and Morpho, expanding its utility beyond basic wallet functions.

Funding and payment options

A partnership with Stripe enables users to fund their accounts and purchase stablecoins using Apple Pay, initially available to users in the United States.

App architecture

World’s identity and financial services are now split across two dedicated applications. The World ID App handles identity verification and credential management, while World Money provides wallet, payment and other financial features. Existing World App and World ID App users can access World Money with their current accounts.

Company background

World Money is operated by Tools for Humanity, the company co‑founded by Sam Altman and Alex Blania that develops technology for the World network.
