General
An eSIM is a built-in digital SIM that lets your phone connect to a network—no physical card needed. It works just like a regular SIM but is embedded in your device, giving you the flexibility to activate and switch plans instantly.
Phone Plans (USA)
Freedom starts with an unlocked phone. Here’s how to check:
- On iPhone: Go to Settings > General > About. If you see "No SIM restrictions" next to Carrier Lock, you’re good to go.
- On Android: Go to Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks > Network Operators and search for available networks. If multiple options appear, your phone is likely unlocked. You can also try inserting a SIM from a different carrier—if it works, you're free to connect with World Mobile.

DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) flips the script on traditional networks. Instead of corporate control, individuals own and operate parts of the network themselves. World Mobile’s AirNodes make this vision real—empowering people to build, connect, and earn from a network that belongs to them.
More connections, more rewards. More freedom, less Big Wireless.
AirNodes are small wireless radios that make up the backbone of the World Mobile network. Instead of relying on large, expensive telecom towers, AirNodes provide last-mile connectivity for voice, text, and data—creating a community-powered, decentralized network that brings people online.
The Chain
Core Staking offers an estimated 5% APY, based on network conditions and block production. However, staking rewards are not guaranteed and may vary. In some instances, no rewards may be earned.
Disclaimer: Staking rewards depend on network participation and block production. Actual returns may fluctuate, and past performance is not indicative of future rewards.
