SECURITY, ALWAYS

Three things to remember.

Self-custody gives you control—and makes protecting your access especially important.

01

Never share your recovery phrase

Coinbase support will never ask for your recovery phrase, private keys, or passwords. Anyone asking is trying to access your wallet.

02

Double-check before you connect

Check the website address before connecting your wallet or approving a transaction. Be cautious with unexpected links and offers.

03

Keep your backup offline

Store your recovery phrase somewhere private and secure offline. Don’t save it in screenshots, email, or cloud notes.

Coinbase Wallet is self-custody. You are responsible for your recovery phrase. If it’s lost, access to your wallet may not be recoverable.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions.

Quick answers for your first steps.

Is Coinbase Wallet the same as my Coinbase.com account?

They’re different products. Coinbase Wallet is a self-custody wallet where you control your recovery phrase. Your Coinbase account is a separate account-based service. Always check which product you’re using.

What is a recovery phrase?

It’s a set of words that can provide access to your self-custody wallet. Keep it private and securely backed up offline. Never share it with anyone, including someone claiming to be support.

Does installing the extension cost anything?

Downloading a wallet extension from the official browser store does not require sharing a recovery phrase. Network fees may apply when you later make blockchain transactions.

Where can I get help?

Use the official Coinbase Wallet help center. Never trust unsolicited messages offering wallet support.
