  2. Choose your browser extension

KEEP CONTROL IN YOUR HANDS

Your recovery phrase
is yours alone.

A self-custody wallet gives you control—and responsibility. Protect your recovery phrase like the keys to your home.

01

Never share your recovery phrase

Coinbase support will never ask you for it. Neither should anyone else.

02

Verify before you install

Start from coinbase.com/wallet and confirm the publisher in the browser store.

03

Pause before approving

Read what a site or transaction is requesting before you connect or sign.

GOOD TO KNOW

Quick answers.

Stay informed as you get set up. When in doubt, use Coinbase’s official help center.

Is this the official Coinbase website?

No. This is an independent setup guide and is not affiliated with Coinbase. Always visit coinbase.com/wallet directly to access official products and instructions.

Will this guide ask me to connect my wallet?

No. This page does not connect to wallets, request account details, or collect recovery phrases. Setup and wallet creation happen only in the official browser extension.

What if I already use Coinbase Wallet on mobile?

You can review the official Coinbase Wallet help pages for current instructions on using your wallet across devices. Never copy your recovery phrase into an unverified page or chat.
