Coinbase Wallet Extension®
Your keys
Self-custody: your recovery phrase never leaves your device. It is encrypted on your computer and nothing is held by us, so only you can unlock your funds or move them anywhere.
Six networks
Supports Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Optimism, Arbitrum and Solana. One wallet and one set of keys carry your balances, tokens and collectibles across every chain listed here.
Dapp connect
Connects to over 10,000 dapps and NFT marketplaces. Approve each site, sign transactions in a popup, and revoke access whenever you like, with no loose ends left behind.

The extension in numbers
Free forever
Free to install: no subscription, no account fee. Creating a wallet, importing one you already own and connecting to dapps cost nothing. Viewing your tokens and NFTs is free, and so is the 24/7 help centre.
Nothing here is billed by us, now or later.
Network gas
Gas fees are paid to the network, never to us. Each on-chain transaction carries its own gas, which varies by chain and by congestion.
Third-party swap or bridge providers set their own fees. You see every one of them before you confirm.
What it costs
Is Coinbase Wallet safe to use?
Self-custody means your recovery phrase never leaves your device. Only you hold the keys to your assets, and nobody at the company can move your funds or reset access on your behalf.
Which browsers does it work with?
The extension works with Chrome, Brave, Edge and Firefox. Install it from your browser’s extension store, pin it to the toolbar and it is ready to open whenever you need it.
Where is my recovery phrase stored?
Your recovery phrase is kept on your device and never leaves it. We cannot see it or recover it for you, so write it down and keep it somewhere private and safe.
Which chains are supported?
Supports Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Optimism, Arbitrum and Solana. Switch between networks inside the extension and manage tokens and collectibles on each chain from one place.
What do I pay to use it?
Free to install, with no subscription and no account fee. Network gas fees are paid to the network, never to us, and the wallet shows each fee before you confirm a transaction.
