The Coinbase Wallet Extension is the official browser-based crypto wallet by Coinbase, designed for seamless access to Web3 and decentralized applications (DApps). Available for browsers like Chrome and Edge, it enables users to store, send, and receive crypto assets securely while interacting with blockchain networks directly.
By linking your Coinbase account or managing your wallet independently, you can explore DeFi platforms, purchase NFTs, and sign blockchain transactions with ease. The Coinbase Extension prioritizes privacy, convenience, and user control — offering the full power of Web3 without compromising security.
Your private keys are encrypted and stored locally in your browser — accessible only to you. Coinbase never holds your keys.
Connect instantly to thousands of decentralized apps, DeFi protocols, and NFT marketplaces directly from your browser.
Explore, collect, and trade NFTs securely without leaving your Coinbase Wallet. Manage your collectibles effortlessly.
Supports Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana, and hundreds of ERC-20 tokens — all under one unified and secure interface.
Sync your wallet with the Coinbase mobile app to manage funds across devices while maintaining full control of your assets.
Setting up your Coinbase Extension is simple, quick, and fully secure. Follow these verified steps to begin your Web3 journey:
1. Visit the official link: https://www.coinbase.com/wallet and choose the browser extension option.
2. Add the Coinbase Extension to your preferred browser (e.g., Chrome, Edge, Brave).
3. Create a new wallet or import an existing one using your 12-word recovery phrase.
4. Set a strong password and enable biometric security if available.
5. Once installed, connect it to Coinbase or use it independently for self-custody.
Always verify you’re downloading from the official Coinbase domain. Never enter your recovery phrase into any pop-up, message, or third-party website.
