FAQs

The World Card is a business virtual card linked to your World Account. It lets you pay suppliers, platforms and service providers directly from your multi-currency account balance.

Use your World Card – a virtual currency card – to:

  • Pay suppliers who accept card payments, instead of relying on bank transfers
  • Set up recurring payments for software tools and subscriptions
  • Pay for digital ads on platforms like Meta, Google and TikTok
  • Cover travel and accommodation bookings
  • Since it’s a multi-currency card, no FX fees will apply when you pay in 15 major currencies from your existing balances. These include USD, GBP, EUR, NZD, SGD and HKD.

    Yes – the World Card is issued as a virtual card that you can start using immediately after approval. It’s ideal for e-commerce businesses, remote teams and online payments – especially when managing spend across multiple currencies. Physical cards are coming soon.

    The World Card is designed for business owners, e-commerce sellers and teams who need a smarter way to manage international spend. It’s not a personal card – it's a business virtual card that connects directly to your multi-currency World Account for better visibility and control over global expenses.

    When you use your WorldFirst virtual currency card to pay for eligible business expenses, you’ll earn 1% cashback on every transaction, with no cap. Cashback is automatically credited to your World Account at the end of the following month.

    This applies to all spend made with your multi-currency card, including same-currency transactions in USD, GBP, EUR and more. Whether you’re booking travel, paying for software subscriptions, or running ad campaigns, your virtual card rewards you as you grow.

    Here’s how to get your World Card and start earning cashback:

    1. Apply for the World Card: In your World Account dashboard, navigate to ‘World Card’ and click ‘Apply for a new card’.

    2. Fund your WorldFirst account: Add balances in up to 15 currencies to your WorldFirst account or receive payments from marketplaces and customers.

    3. Pay for business expenses: Start using your World Card as a payment method for your business purchases and earn 1.0% ongoing cashback on every eligible payment.

    Unlike many prepaid or bank-issued cards, the World Card draws directly from your currency wallets – meaning no FX fees when you pay in a supported currency. You also earn 1% cashback on every eligible payment. It’s designed to be the best multi-currency card for growing businesses that need flexibility, speed and control.
