Why World ID

A digital ID that proves you're a real person.

World ID is the global standard for proof of personhood. In a world increasingly filled with bots and AI, your World ID lets you prove your humanity — without revealing who you are.

Your biometric data is processed on-device and never stored externally.

You control your consent and data at every step of the process.

Verified by independent operators — not a government database.

Visit an Orb Location

Walk into any of our verified Orb locations — shopping centers, transit hubs, event venues. No appointment necessary. An Orb operator will guide you through the 2–3 minute iris scan process. The Orb uses specialized hardware to capture a mathematical representation of your iris pattern — not a photo. This code is generated on-device and the image is deleted immediately.

03

Receive Your World ID

Once verification is complete, your World ID credential appears in the World App. It's a zero-knowledge proof — it confirms you're a unique human without revealing anything else about you. Use it to claim rewards, access verified-human-only services, and prove your personhood wherever it's accepted.

General
World ID is a digital identity credential that proves you're a unique, real human being. It uses iris biometrics to confirm that each person has only one World ID, without storing or sharing your personal information. It's designed to be used in an era where AI makes it increasingly difficult to distinguish humans from bots online.
Yes, completely free. The World App is free to download, Orb verification is free, and there are no subscription fees or hidden charges at any point. You do not need to purchase anything to get a World ID.
OurWorldID is an independent World ID operator. We are authorized to deploy Orb verification technology and help people get their World ID. We are not employees, agents, or official representatives of Tools for Humanity or the World Foundation — though we operate using their officially licensed technology and follow all of their brand and compliance guidelines.
World ID was created by Tools for Humanity, co-founded by Sam Altman (CEO of OpenAI) and Alex Blania. The system is designed to create a privacy-preserving global proof of personhood network. More information is available at world.org.
Privacy & Data
No. The Orb processes your iris scan on-device to generate an IrisCode — a mathematical representation. The iris image itself is deleted immediately after processing. The IrisCode is stored securely under Tools for Humanity's Privacy Policy. OurWorldID does not collect or store any biometric data.
Yes. You can request deletion of your biometric data through the World App at any time. Your deletion rights are governed by Tools for Humanity's Privacy Policy and applicable law in your jurisdiction.
No. World ID only verifies that you're a unique human. It doesn't link to your name, government ID, passport, social security number, or any other personal document. It's purely a proof of uniqueness, not a proof of identity in the traditional sense.
Verification Process
The Orb verification process takes approximately 2–3 minutes once you're at the device. You'll need the World App already downloaded on your phone. No appointment is necessary — walk-ins are welcome at all locations.
In most cases, no government ID is required for World ID verification. You do need to be 18 or older and have the World App installed on your phone. Operators may request age verification in some circumstances.
No. The Orb verifies that each person is unique — one World ID per person. This is the core feature that prevents bots and duplicate accounts. If you've been verified before, you cannot create a second World ID.
Rewards & Benefits
No. World ID is an identity credential, not a financial product. No investment is required, and no financial returns are promised. The World Network does include a WLD token as part of its broader ecosystem, but participation in World ID verification does not constitute any financial transaction or investment.
World ID Rewards (WIDR) are real-world discounts offered by local and national merchants to verified World App users. They're claimed once per verified human by scanning a QR code with the World App. Examples include food vouchers, ride credits, and retail discounts.
Operators
Independent operators are companies or individuals authorized by Tools for Humanity to deploy Orb verification technology. They run local activation campaigns, source merchant rewards, and help people in their community get verified. OurWorldID is one such operator.
Visit our Become an Operator page to submit an application. The process involves completing Tools for Humanity's Field Operator Onboarding program and signing the necessary operator agreements.

Decentralized Identity

World ID is a decentralized credential that lives on your phone. No central authority controls your identity — you do.

🔒

Zero-Knowledge Proofs

Prove you're human without revealing who you are. World ID uses advanced cryptography so identity claims require no personal disclosure.

🤝

Open Ecosystem

Any application or service can integrate World ID verification. The network grows stronger with every new integration and verified user.

The Problem

The internet
is full of bots.

Over 40% of internet traffic is now automated. Generative AI tools have made it trivially easy to create convincing fake personas, flood platforms with spam, and manipulate public discourse.

World ID exists to create a layer of trust — a way for humans to prove they're real without giving up their privacy. It's infrastructure for the age of AI.

40%+ of internet traffic is bots

Automated accounts are everywhere — fake reviews, spam floods, manipulated votes. The current identity layer of the internet was built before AI existed.

AI makes fake people indistinguishable

Language models can write convincing content. Image generators can create realistic faces. The gap between human and machine is closing rapidly.

Privacy-preserving verification is possible

Zero-knowledge proofs allow identity claims to be verified without sharing underlying data. World ID implements this architecture at scale.

Join the human network.

Verify in minutes. Prove your humanity forever.
