World launches self-custodial ‘super app’ World Money

Summary

World launched World Money, a self-custody financial super app available in more than 150 countries, with features varying by region. It supports stablecoin and other digital asset transfers to World usernames, trading, rewards on eligible deposits, and access to Mini Apps like Kalshi, Credit, and Morpho. In the US, a Stripe integration lets users fund accounts and buy stablecoins with Apple Pay. World has steadily expanded from World App’s 2023 launch into identity, wallet, trading, rewards, and banking-like features, including virtual bank accounts and USDC conversion for deposits. With World Money, identity and finance are now separated: World ID App handles verification, while World Money covers payments and wallet functions. Existing users can sign in with current accounts.
