Using the foursquare search api , https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/venues/search
I need to search for a venue worldwide without having to specify a country, [so a user does not have to enter another field]
Is this possible to do with foursquare, or could you suggest any other services to do this?

Use intent=global parameter.
ex)
https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/search?intent=global&query=apple+store&oauth_token=(YOUR_TOKEN)&v=20150721
If you use global parameter, all other parameters other than
query
andlimit
are ignored.
