Transform your browsing experience with the Coinbase extension – a one-stop solution for managing your cryptocurrency portfolio. Buy, sell, and securely store your digital assets directly from your browser.
Ready to jump in with the Coinbase Wallet browser extension? To get started, you can either create a new self-custody wallet or import an existing wallet using a 12 word recovery phrase from another wallet provider like MetaMask or Trust Wallet, or even another Coinbase Wallet.
In either case, you’ll need to install the Coinbase Wallet extension from the Chrome Web Store.
Step 1: To get started, please install the Coinbase Wallet extension from the Chrome Web Store
Step 2: Choose ‘Create new wallet’.
Step 3: Securely back up your 12-word recovery phrase. We recommend storing this in a secure location, such as a password manager, or writing it down and storing it somewhere safe. Keep this safe, as this is the key to access your wallet and Coinbase cannot recover this phrase for you.
Step 4: Verify that you saved this recovery phrase before moving onto the next step.
Step 5: Create a password to access your wallet. Keep this safe, as you’ll need it to access your wallet regularly. Remember, Coinbase cannot recover your password for you!
Step 6: Claim your free web3 username. This is how other Coinbase Wallet users can find you and send you crypto. If you skip this step, we'll automatically generate a username for you.
Step 7: All done! Your Coinbase Wallet extension has been set up, and is ready to use! Get started by funding your Wallet extension.
