Follow these simple steps to get started with the Coinbase Wallet Extension
Visit the official Coinbase Wallet Extension page on the Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons Store. Click "Add to Browser" and follow the prompts to install the extension safely. Ensure you are downloading the official version to avoid phishing risks.
Install ExtensionOnce installed, you can either create a new wallet or import an existing wallet using your recovery phrase. A secure recovery phrase is essential—never share it with anyone, and store it offline safely. Creating a new wallet will generate a unique 12-word phrase. Importing a wallet requires entering the phrase exactly as it was provided.
Protect your digital assets with these essential security measures
Your Coinbase Wallet Extension holds private keys that give full access to your digital assets. Without proper security, your funds could be stolen by phishing attacks or malware.
Always keep a secure backup of your recovery phrase offline. This ensures you can restore your wallet if your device is lost, stolen, or corrupted. Never share your recovery phrase online or with anyone you do not trust completely.
Learn how to use your Coinbase Wallet Extension effectively
The Coinbase Wallet Extension allows you to connect directly to dApps like decentralized exchanges, NFT marketplaces, and DeFi platforms. Click "Connect" when prompted by a dApp, and approve transactions securely through the extension interface. Always review the transaction details carefully before confirming to prevent scams or errors.
You can send cryptocurrencies to any wallet address by clicking "Send" and entering the recipient address. Receiving funds is simple—click "Receive" and share your wallet address or QR code. Always double-check addresses to prevent irreversible mistakes.
The Coinbase Wallet Extension supports multiple wallets and token types. You can easily switch between wallets, view balances, and manage your assets efficiently. This feature is particularly useful for users interacting with multiple dApps or holding diverse portfolios.
