Disclaimer: The Airdrop Program is only available to World ID users who meet the eligibility requirements set forth in our Terms.

⚠️ Update as of June 1, 2026: WLD Airdrop cycles are no longer being created or renewed. At present, if you have an active cycle, you can continue claiming monthly WLD until it ends. Once your cycle ends, no new cycle will be created.

Overview

The Airdrop Program granted WLD tokens to unique humans who verified their World ID. At present, eligible users who enrolled before June 1, 2026 and claimed their first airdrop can continue claiming their monthly WLD portions until the end of their 12-month cycle.

Eligibility to continue claiming monthly WLD airdrops depends on the type of verification completed before June 1, 2026:

• Orb Verification: Provides the highest level of certainty that a user is a unique human. This option offers the highest amount of WLD.
• Credential Verification: Verification of an NFC-enabled passport or government ID as a Credential in World App. Credential verification provides a lower level of certainty, which means fewer tokens than Orb verification

Users who completed both verification types may be eligible to claim the highest combined token amount.

• How to Claim WLD Airdrops

  These steps apply to users with an active airdrop cycle (enrolled before June 1, 2026).

  1. Open the Worldcoin Mini App in World App.

  2. Claim your monthly portion: WLD becomes available to claim once a month, on the same date you first verified your World ID. You have one month to claim before the next airdrop becomes available, or before your 12-month cycle ends.

  3. Verify: Tap Verify to confirm your World ID and complete the claim. The token status will change to Claimed when done.

• Frequently Asked Questions

  About the Program

  What are airdrops?

  Airdrops are free token distributions projects send directly to wallets, usually to reward early users or grow their community.

  Can I still enroll in the Airdrop Program?
  No. New airdrop cycles are no longer being created. Users who verified on or after June 1, 2026 are not eligible for WLD airdrops.

  Are there any rewards available after June 1, 2026?
  Details of rewards, where available, can be found here: How do invite rewards work?

  What happens after my airdrop cycle ends? 
  No further WLD airdrops will be received after a 12-month airdrop cycle ends.
  
   

  Token Reservation

  What happened to my reserved tokens?

  Any tokens that were unclaimed before July 31, 2025, have expired and are no longer available.

   

  Token Claiming

  How often can I claim WLD?

  Once a month over a 12-month cycle, on the day of the month you first verified your World ID. You have a full month to claim the WLD airdrop before that portion expires and the next becomes available (if the 12-month cycle has not ended).

  What happens to WLD that I haven't claimed?

  Each monthly WLD portion expires if not claimed within the month it becomes available.

  Are the monthly WLD portions always the same amount?
  No. Usually the initial portion is the largest, with subsequent monthly portions gradually decreasing over your 12-month cycle.

  Why am I not receiving my WLD after claiming?
  If eligible, it can take up to 24 hours for WLD to appear in your wallet after claiming. Before taking further action:

  a. Close and reopen the app.

  b. Make sure the app is updated to the latest version.

  c. Wait up to 24 hours for the transaction to complete.

  If your claim is still processing, please double-check your receiving address on the World Chain Blockchain Explorer here: https://worldscan.org/

  The blockchain record will confirm whether your WLD has been successfully received.

  If you see the incoming WLD blockchain record, but World App does not reflect the same balance, rest assured that is just a display issue. It may take a while for the transaction to appear in your World App.

  Our team may also be working on fixing a temporary issue and has paused WLD claims. You should receive your WLD once the maintenance is complete. Please check the status page for the latest updates.
