To gain access to the assets that you have stored in your Coinbase Extension wallet, you need to install the mobile-friendly app on a compatible mobile phone- Android or iPhone. However, the wallet is only compatible with the newer versions of these phones.
Hence, if you have the latest version of the mobile app on your device, then you can follow the given steps to go ahead:
Search your App Store or Play Store for the Coinbase wallet
Then, select the given app from the search results
Do check the number of downloads before installation
And then, you need to tap on the given installation option- Get or Install
Viola! You have just downloaded the app in the correct way
Once the app is downloaded, it is time now to learn how to set up the wallet and I think you will need a little guidance for the same.
Those who are interested in quickly getting started with using the wallet services need to set up their wallet. And we know, downloading the wallet is just not enough. So, here, we’ll be walking you through the pathways to get the wallet set up:
The first thing that you need to do is, obviously, launch the wallet software (the app or the extension)
Followed by this, on the welcome screen, you need to pick the option that says “create a new wallet”
After that, pick a username along with username preferences
And then, set up a security method such as biometric, fingerprint, etc.
When the seed phrase is shown to you, please make a copy of it so that you can restore the wallet when in need
Now, you are ready to use the wallet and start receiving crypto funds in it
However, one thing to be noted down here is the process of how you can fetch your Coinbase wallet address. In the absence of the wallet address, you will not be able to store crypto funds in your wallet.
Thus, we are bringing to you the procedure through which this could be possible.
Have you been struggling while getting your hands on your wallet address? Well, in that case, you might like to give these steps a try:
Get into your Coinbase wallet using the correct Coinbase wallet login credentials
After that, you need to the section named “Crypto addresses”
Simply click on this option and your wallet address will pop-up
Here you will come across two options- one that lets you copy the wallet address and another one would let you display and use the QR code
Just pick any of the preferred options between the two and start receiving cryptos
Downloading and using most of the crypto wallets is completely free and the same is the case with Coinbase wallet.
Yes, you read that right…You can download the wallet software at no cost and most importantly, it is very easy for users to gain access to all the included features among which most of them are completely free.
In addition to that, you can also store your crypto funds free of cost.
In order to get yourself a Coinbase wallet, there are only two possible ways. One way is to get the wallet extension downloaded and added to the Chrome Web browser. Another way to get the wallet is by installing the wallet app on your device.
And this simply means that you cannot use Coinbase wallet on the Firefox browser. If you wish to know when you will be able to use the Coinbase extension on browsers other than Chrome, then you can connect to the Coinbase wallet support team. You can also contact them for resolving any wallet-related query.
And that's where our discussion on Coinbase wallet and its related aspects comes to an end. Before I close this topic, I would like to give you a piece of advice that would help you in the long run and help you avoid any loss of crypto funds. Yes, you guessed that right...do not share your secret recovery phrase with anyone including the Coinbase wallet representative.
Always keep these critical details away from the prying eyes so that your funds do go into the wrong hands. And make sure you create several backups of the seed phrase. So, if any of the words of the phrase gets lost, you will be able to recover your wallet, no matter what.
