WORPT’s developers announced the app’s launch under Thailand’s Tourist DigiPay regulatory sandbox. Foreign tourists can convert USDT or USDC into baht and pay through QR PromptPay without a local bank account; merchants receive baht, not cryptocurrency. Waan Exchange has approval to participate in the sandbox, and the service includes identity checks and transaction monitoring.
The developers aim to attract 200,000 users in the first year and forecast 15 billion baht, or about $440 million, in transactions over 18 months of testing. Visa prepaid cards are planned, with physical cards expected in mid-November 2026 and virtual cards in early 2027.
