Whether you're using the Coinbase Chrome Extension on your desktop or the mobile app on your phone, your experience remains synchronized and secure.
Security Note: Always ensure you're downloading the genuine Coinbase® extension by verifying it's from the official browser store and the developer is listed as "Coinbase, Inc".

The Coinbase Wallet download is available from official app stores and browser marketplaces, operating independently from your main Coinbase® exchange account while maintaining interoperability.
Is the Coinbase Extension free to use?
Yes, the Coinbase® extension is completely free to download and use. Standard trading fees still apply to transactions made through the extension, similar to the web platform.
Can I use the extension for Coinbase Pro login?
While the main extension is designed for the standard Coinbase® platform, many Pro features are accessible through it. For the complete advanced trading experience, you may still need to visit pro.coinbase.com directly for certain functionalities.
Is my cryptocurrency safe when using the extension?
Coinbase® employs robust security measures including two-factor authentication, encryption, and secure storage for digital assets. However, as with any browser extension, ensure you keep your browser and extension updated to the latest version and practice good security hygiene.
What's the difference between the Coinbase Extension and Coinbase Wallet Extension?
The main Coinbase Extension is for trading on the exchange platform (custodial service), while the Coinbase Wallet Extension is for managing self-custody cryptocurrency wallets and interacting with dApps across various blockchains.
Can I use the extension on multiple browsers and devices?
The extension is available for Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers. You can install it on multiple browsers and devices, with your account remaining synchronized across all platforms through your Coinbase® login credentials.
Do I need to download both the exchange extension and wallet extension?
This depends on your needs. If you only trade on Coinbase® exchange, the main extension suffices. If you want to explore DeFi, dApps, or maintain a self-custody wallet, you'll need the Wallet Extension. Many users benefit from having both for different purposes.
