Finally, the World First session!

With one World Account account, you can easily manage funds sold overseas, including Shopify, even if you do not have an overseas corporation! To put it simply, World First is a service that creates virtual accounts for foreign currencies for domestic businesses .

If you use World First, your account will be credited to Citibank, Deutsche Bank, and Barclays Bank, allowing Korean businesses to safely issue virtual accounts. As a result, sellers selling overseas will be able to receive funds from marketplaces such as Shopify.

We hope that this will be a very useful time for those preparing for global e-commerce, including sales platforms, payments, logistics, SNS marketing, and customs reporting for exports, to successfully advance into overseas markets.
