USD Wallets on Coinbase

Instant buying and selling

Once you deposit USD into your new wallet, you no longer have to wait for traditional bank transfers to clear before your orders complete. Coinbase can process bitcoin purchases on-demand using funds from your USD Wallet.

No credit card required

Previously, the only way to instantly acquire bitcoin on Coinbase was to enable instant buy, which required adding a credit card. USD Wallets let you transfer U.S. Dollars to your Coinbase Account at your convenience. You can then use those funds to purchase bitcoin instantly from Coinbase. If you do not spend the funds, or if you receive the U.S. Dollar proceeds of a bitcoin sale into your USD Wallet, you can simply withdraw the funds back to your linked bank account whenever you wish. Coinbase will not charge you to send funds to and from your USD Wallet via ACH bank transfer in the U.S.
