Buy, sell, and manage cryptocurrency with confidence
Coinbase Wallet makes it easy to safely store, send, and receive Bitcoin, Ethereum, and hundreds of other assets. Stay in control of your keys and enjoy a secure, intuitive experience on desktop and mobile.

What is Coinbase Wallet?
Coinbase Wallet is a user-controlled cryptocurrency wallet, giving you access to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and more. Unlike an exchange account, you control your private keys, meaning you fully own your crypto. The Wallet integrates seamlessly with the Coinbase ecosystem and supports dApps, NFTs, and token swaps directly from the interface.
It’s designed for both beginners and advanced users, combining security-first design with a clean, simple experience. You can track balances, send payments, and interact with smart contracts safely.
