World Mobile launches on Google Play for customers in Australia, Canada, UK and US

The company also announced a partnership with artificial intelligence company SingularityNET.

The UK-based mobile network operator – World Mobile – teamed up with the decentralized artificial intelligence (AI) marketplace – SingularityNET – to develop credit ratings for a lending program that utilizes blockchain technology.

Decentralized wireless (DeWi) network operator World Mobile announced the launch of its app on Google Play for users in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and Tanzania on Aug. 22.

The launch comes on the heels of a series of beta tests conducted in numerous markets typically considered underserved when it comes to mobile connectivity and availability, including Kenya, Mozambique and Nigeria. The World Mobile app is also currently available in Zanzibar.

According to World Mobile, its DeWi services are meant to bridge the gap between major telecoms and those in underserved markets. It does so by providing some connectivity services and through the promotion of a blockchain-based sharing system it supports through a proprietary token, World Mobile Token (WMT), and the inclusion of other Cardano-based tokens.

In others, it adapted SpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet service for mobile customer use.

Per a World Mobile blog post, the two companies will work together to develop and manage customer service solutions for the World Mobile platform.

The post also mentions that the partnership will explore an AI and blockchain-based lending and credit approval service that “adapts to the users’ payment history and reputation.
