Coinbase® Extension - Coinbase Wallet browser extension

Coinbase Wallet extension is the safest and easiest way to use crypto apps in your browser. Crypto is just getting started, and Coinbase Wallet is your key to ...

Welcome to MyAPI

Coinbase Wallet isn’t just available on your mobile device—there’s also a standalone browser extension available in Google Chrome. While using your phone might be ideal for some transactions, like buying NFTs, you might find that you prefer using your desktop if you’re doing something more complex, like using a DeFi protocol.

To get started, you’ll need to install the Coinbase Wallet extension from the Chrome store.

Once you have the extension installed, you can either create a new wallet or import an existing wallet from another app, like MetaMask.

Creating a new wallet

When creating a new Coinbase Wallet, you’ll be prompted to enter a username. Other Coinbase Wallet users will be able to find you by your username and use it to send you crypto. Remember: your username can’t be changed!

You’ll then be shown your 12-word recovery phrase, an algorithmically generated string of simple words that allows you to unlock your wallet to send or spend cryptocurrency. You’re going to want to back up the phrase in a secure location, like a password manager, or by writing it down and keeping it somewhere safe. If you lose access to the phrase, you’ll lose access to your crypto, and the phrase can’t be recovered.

Once you’ve backed up your recovery phrase, you can create a password to access your wallet. Then you’re all done!
