Getting Started
What's the Difference between World ID app and World Money?
World's identity and money features are now split across two dedicated apps.
World ID app is your identity app. Use it to get verified as a real human, manage your World ID Proofs, and unlock partner experiences and rewards available to verified humans.
World Money is your money app. Use it for wallet-style features like sending and receiving funds and other finance-related actions.
| App | Purpose | Usage |
| World ID app | Identity & verification | Prove you're human, manage Proofs, access human-only benefit |
| World Money | Money & wallet | Send, receive, and manage crypto and other financial features |
Feature Availability per App
| Supported Features | World ID app | World Money |
| Orb verification | ✓ | ✓ (for a limited time) |
| World ID Proofs | ✓ Proof of Attributes (passport, national ID), Proof of Human (Orb) | ✗ |
| World ID Rewards | ✓ For Humans tab | ✗ |
| Crypto wallet | ✗ | ✓ |
| WLD send/receive | ✗ (view balance only) | ✓ |
| Virtual bank account | ✗ | ✓ |
Do I need a new account to use World ID app?
No. If you already use World Money, installing World ID app doesn't require a new account. You'll sign in with your existing World ID — the two apps share the same identity underneath, and your verification and World ID Proofs carry over instantly.
Can I keep using World Money?
Yes. Both apps run in parallel. World Money continues to handle all wallet and crypto features, and nothing about your existing account or verification changes.
If you need to do something that isn't available in World ID app, like send WLD or use your virtual bank account, open World Money.
What's in the World ID app?
The World ID app is organized into three main tabs, each serving a distinct purpose:
Credentials tab
The Credentials tab shows the World ID Proofs stored securely on your device and is the starting point for verifying Proofs with World ID.
What you'll see:
- Your World ID status: a prompt to get verified ("Prove you're human, fully privately") with quick-action buttons to Get verified or Explore all
- Actions available to verified humans: including unlocking human-only actions, accessing human rewards, and earning a verified human badge
Learn about World ID: educational cards explaining what World ID is and how to get verified, plus a World ID Privacy section
For Humans tab
The For Humans tab highlights exclusive benefits, integrations, and rewards available to World ID-verified users, where available.
- Featured integrations: Tinder ("Date with real humans"), Zoom ("Meetings without deepfakes")
- World ID Rewards: earn points and explore available rewards
- World ID for consumers: Earn Razer Gold, Get 5 free boosts on Tinder, Concerts for real fans on World Music
- World ID for agents: Meetings without deepfakes (Zoom), AI agent auth (Browserbase), Free agent search (Era), Proof of Human APIs (Okta)
- Mini Apps: Invite friends and earn, Unique Humans, Discounts around you, Verify humanness offline
Tapping any integration opens a detail page showing what it unlocks, a preview, what's shared (Proof of Human only), what's not shared (Orb image, face photo), and partner info.
Notifications tab
The Notifications tab keeps you up to date on activity related to your World ID. Notifications are grouped by time, such as Today and This week, and can include:
- Verification requests from connected apps (for example, when someone wants to verify you in another app)
- Announcements about new World ID features
If push notifications aren't turned on, you'll see an option at the top of the tab to enable them so you don't miss important updates. You can also manage push notifications in Settings.

Does World offer a bug bounty program?
Yes, World launched a bug bounty program in 2024 to further reinforce security at every level of the project. The program is being managed by project contributor Tools for Humanity (TFH).
Program Overview
This initiative invites experts to identify and report potential vulnerabilities across various components of the World protocol, including mobile apps, smart contracts, hardware, web applications, and APIs.
Reports can be submitted via HackerOne, which supports public disclosure of resolved reports, aligning with World's commitment to transparency.
Submissions are evaluated using the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) to determine severity. If validated, the reward will be determined based on severity.

What is World ID?
World ID is a privacy-first decentralized protocol. This means it can be used as a digital passport that can prove you are a unique and real person, without sharing personal data like names and emails.
With World ID, you can sign in to web, mobile, and decentralized apps, and privately use your World ID Proofs when an app asks you to prove something about yourself.
If you’ve claimed Proof of Human by verifying at an Orb, or claimed Proof of Attributes by adding a supported passport or national ID, you have World ID Proofs. You can find them in the Credentials tab in World ID app.
