Transform the way you engage with cryptocurrencies – download the Coinbase extension for a user-centric and feature-rich trading experience.

Create a new wallet

  1. Once you’ve installed the extension, select Create a new wallet.

  2. Click Create a new wallet and enter a username—this is how other Coinbase Wallet users can find you. Note that you will not be able to change your username.

  3. Securely back up your 12-word recovery phrase.

  4. Verify that you’ve saved your recovery phrase before moving onto the next step.

  5. Create a password to access your wallet.

Once the above steps are complete, then you can use your Coinbase Wallet extension immediately.

Important: Coinbase cannot recover your 12-word recovery phrase for you. We recommend storing it in a secure location, such as a password manager or writing it down and keeping it somewhere secure. Your recovery phrase is what gives you—and only you—access to your wallet.
