World Mobile app, which provides blockchain-based mobile internet, is now available on Google Play Store for download in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. The project has completed the community beta phase.
The World Mobile app boasts a Cardano wallet, Scan for Points functionality, and fiat on-ramp. The company aims to provide universal connectivity.
“This is an important milestone for us, as we move towards our global vision of democratising connectivity and access to our services,” Micky Watkins, CEO of World Mobile, said in a statement.
In beta, the World Mobile app was introduced in Zanzibar, Tanzania. It aimed at connectivity infrastructure upgrades and seamless purchase of data bundles. The app provided each customer with a decentralized identifier (DID).
“After months of rigorous development, the groundwork was laid for a global userbase,” the statement said.
The first World Mobile global app was launched in a closed beta in Australia in March 2023, which proved to be a significant step toward its public launch.
Among its key features is the Word Mobile Wallet, a single address, non-custodial, light wallet on the Cardano blockchain. Users can manage their digital assets, such as NFTs and Cardano Native Tokens (CNT).
Another feature that the World Mobile app offers is a fiat-on-ramp that simplifies the transition from fiat currencies to cryptocurrencies. Users can seamlessly exchange fiat currencies such as US dollars and Euros for World Mobile Tokens (WMT).
