Individual User Agreement

Last updated: November 4, 2025

Welcome to Coinbase! This is a User Agreement between you (also referred to herein as “User,” or “customer”) and Coinbase, Inc. ("Coinbase," “we,” “us,” and “our”). This User Agreement ("Agreement" or “User Agreement”) governs your use of the services provided by Coinbase described below and such other services that may be offered by Coinbase from time to time ("Coinbase Services" or "Services"). By signing up to use a Coinbase account or service through coinbase.com, Coinbase’s APIs, the Coinbase mobile application, or any other Coinbase website (collectively the "Coinbase Site"), or by obtaining, holding or using a wrapped token issued by Coinbase, you agree that you have read, understand, and accept all of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement including our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Prohibited Use Policy and E-Sign Disclosure and Consent Policy in Appendix 2.

Coinbase may provide educational information about Supported Digital Assets, as well as Digital Assets not supported by Coinbase, in order to assist users in learning more about such Digital Assets. Information may include, but is not limited to, blog posts, articles, links to third-party content, news feeds, tutorials, and videos. The information provided on the Coinbase Site or any such third-party sites does not constitute investment advice, financial advice, trading advice, or any other sort of advice, and you should not treat any of the website's content as such. Coinbase does not recommend that any Digital Asset should be bought, earned, sold, or held by you. Coinbase will not be held responsible for the decisions you make to buy, sell, or hold Digital Assets based on the information provided by Coinbase.

Coinbase does not broker trades on your behalf unless otherwise specified on a specific product. All Coinbase trades are executed automatically, based on the parameters of your order instructions and in accordance with posted trade execution procedures.

Acknowledgement of Risk: As with any asset, the value of Digital Assets can increase or decrease and there can be a substantial risk that you lose money buying, selling, holding, or investing in Digital Assets. You should consult your financial advisor, legal or tax professional regarding your specific situation and financial condition and carefully consider whether trading or holding Digital Assets is suitable for you.

1. Account Setup

1.1. Eligibility. To be eligible to use the Coinbase Services, you must be at least 18 years old, and reside in the United States. There are certain features which may or may not be available to you depending on your location and other criteria.

1.2. Registration of Coinbase Account. You must register for a Coinbase account to use the Coinbase Services (a "Coinbase Account" or “your account”). You will need to complete certain verification procedures before you are permitted to use the Coinbase Services. By registering or using a Coinbase Account you agree and represent that you have created your Coinbase Account and you will use your Coinbase Account only for yourself, and not on behalf of any third party, unless you have obtained prior written approval from Coinbase. You are fully responsible for all activity that occurs under your Coinbase Account. We may, in our sole discretion, refuse to open a Coinbase Account, suspend or terminate any Coinbase Account, suspend or terminate the sending of Digital Assets from your account, or suspend or terminate the trading of Digital Assets in your account. Please see Section 6 below for more information.

1.3. Consent to Access, Processing and Storage of Your Personal Data &Identity Verification. During registration for your Coinbase Account, or at any other time deemed necessary by Coinbase, you agree to provide us with the information we request for the purposes of identity verification, providing Coinbase Services to you, and the detection of money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other financial crimes and permit us to keep a record of such information. The information we request may include certain personal information, including, but not limited to, your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, date of birth, taxpayer identification number, government identification, and information regarding your bank account (such as the name of the bank, the account type, routing number, and account number) and in some cases (where permitted by law), special categories of personal data, such as your biometric information. You consent to us accessing, processing and retaining any personal information you provide to us for the purpose of us providing Coinbase Services to you. This consent is not related to, and does not affect, any rights or obligations we or you have in accordance with data protection laws, privacy laws and regulations. You can withdraw your consent at any time by closing your account with us. However, we may retain and continue to process your personal information if we reasonably believe it is necessary in order to comply with laws or regulations. In providing us with this or any other information that may be required, you confirm that the information is accurate and authentic. You agree to keep us updated if any of the information you provide changes. You authorize us to make inquiries, whether directly or through third parties, that we consider necessary to verify your identity or protect you and/or us against fraud or other financial crime, and to take action we reasonably deem necessary based on the results of such inquiries. When we carry out these inquiries, you acknowledge and agree that your personal information may be disclosed to credit reference and fraud prevention or financial crime agencies and that these agencies may respond to our inquiries in full. This is an identity check only and should have no adverse effect on your credit rating. We reserve the right at all times to monitor, review, retain and/or disclose any information as necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, sanctions programs, legal process or governmental request. Further, you authorize your wireless carrier to use or disclose information about your account and your wireless device, if available, to Coinbase or its service provider for as long as you have a Coinbase Account, solely to help them identify you or your wireless device and to prevent fraud. See our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy for more information on how we process your personal data and the rights you have in respect of this.

1.4. Access. The Coinbase Services can be accessed directly using the Coinbase Site. Access to Coinbase Services may become degraded or unavailable during times of significant volatility or volume. This could result in significant support response time delays. Although we strive to provide you with excellent service, we do not represent that the Coinbase Site or other Coinbase Services will be available without interruption and we do not guarantee that any order will be executed, accepted, recorded, or remain open. Coinbase shall not be liable for any losses resulting from or arising out of delays in processing transactions, inability to execute transactions, or lack of timely response from Coinbase customer support. For example, if you are locked out of your Coinbase Account, it is possible that the value or price of the Digital Assets in your account might go down before your access is restored. Coinbase shall not be liable for any alleged losses that you suffer from a drop in Digital Asset values or prices.

2. Hosted Wallet and Custodial Services

2.1. Hosted Wallet Services. As part of your Coinbase Account, Coinbase will provide qualifying users: (i) hosted Digital Asset wallet(s), each of which is an account for holding Supported Digital Assets (“Digital Asset Wallet”), and (ii) a hosted US Dollars ("USD") wallet, which is an account for holding USD (a “USD Wallet“). You may also elect to use other products and services, such as the Coinbase vault (“Coinbase Vault”), or Coinbase Wallet (an unhosted wallet service); additional rules associated with such product(s) and services(s) may apply. Unless otherwise noted, all references to Digital Asset Wallet include Coinbase Vault.

2.2. Hosted Digital Asset Wallet. Your Digital Asset Wallet allows you to store, track, transfer, and manage your balances of Supported Digital Assets.We securely store Digital Asset private keys, which are used to process transactions, in a combination of online and offline storage. As a result of our security protocols, it may be necessary for us to retrieve private keys or related information from offline storage in order to facilitate Digital Asset Transfers (as defined below) in accordance with your instructions, and you acknowledge that this may delay the initiation or crediting of such Digital Asset Transfers.

2.3. Supported Digital Assets. Your Digital Asset Wallet is intended solely for proper use of Supported Digital Assets as designated on the Coinbase Site. Under no circumstances should you attempt to use your Digital Asset Wallet to store, send, request, or receive any assets other than Supported Digital Assets. Coinbase assumes no responsibility in connection with any attempt to use your Digital Asset Wallet with Digital Assets that we do not support. You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase is not liable for any unsupported Digital Asset that is sent to a wallet associated with your Coinbase Account. Coinbase may in its sole discretion terminate support for any particular Digital Asset. If you do not sell or send such Digital Asset off platform before Coinbase terminates its support for such Digital Asset, then Coinbase may, in its discretion, remove such Digital Asset from your Digital Asset Wallet and credit your Digital Asset Wallet or USD Wallet the equivalent market value of a Supported Digital Asset or fiat currency minus transaction costs. If you have any questions about our current list of Supported Digital Assets, please visit https://help.coinbase.com.

2.4. Supplemental Protocols Excluded. Unless otherwise specifically announced on the Coinbase Site or as set forth in this Agreement, Supported Digital Assets excludes all other protocols and/or functionality which supplement or interact with the Supported Digital Asset. This exclusion includes but is not limited to: metacoins, colored coins, side chains, or other derivative, enhanced, or forked protocols, tokens, or coins or other functionality, such as staking, protocol governance, and/or any smart contract functionality, which may supplement or interact with a Supported Digital Asset. Do not use your Coinbase Account to attempt to receive, request, send, store, or engage in any other type of transaction or functionality involving any such protocol as the Coinbase Site is not configured to detect, secure, or process these transactions and functionality. Any attempted transactions in such items will result in loss of the item. You acknowledge and agree that other than as set forth in this Agreement supplemental protocols are excluded from Supported Digital Assets and that Coinbase has no liability for any losses related to supplemental protocols.

2.5. Fungibility of Certain Digital Assets. You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase may hold Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallets in a variety of different ways, including across multiple blockchain protocols, such as layer two networks, alternative layer one networks, or side chains. In connection with its holding of Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallets, Coinbase may transfer such Digital Assets off of the primary blockchain protocol and hold such Digital Assets on shared blockchain addresses, controlled by Coinbase, on alternative blockchain protocols in forms compatible with such protocols. You agree that all forms of the same Digital Asset that are held and made available across multiple blockchain protocols may be treated as fungible and the equivalent of each other, without regard to (a) whether any form of such Digital Asset is wrapped or (b) the blockchain protocol on which any form of such Digital Asset is stored.

2.6. Operation of Digital Asset Protocols. Coinbase does not own or control the underlying software protocols which govern the operation of Digital Assets. Generally, the underlying protocols are open source, and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. We assume no responsibility for the operation of the underlying protocols and do not guarantee the functionality or security of network operations. In particular, the underlying protocols may be subject to sudden changes in operating rules (including “forks”). Any such operating changes may materially affect the availability, value, functionality, and/or the name of the Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet or other wallet. Coinbase does not control the timing and features of these operating changes. It is your responsibility to make yourself aware of upcoming operating changes and you must carefully consider publicly available information and information that may be provided by Coinbase in determining whether to continue to use a Coinbase Account for the affected Digital Asset. In the event of any such operational change, Coinbase reserves the right to take such steps as may be necessary to protect the security and safety of assets held on the Coinbase Site, including without limitation, temporarily suspending operations for the involved Digital Asset(s); Coinbase will endeavor to provide you notice of its response to any material operating change; however, such changes are outside of Coinbase’s control and may occur without notice to Coinbase. Coinbase’s response to any operating change is subject to its sole discretion and may include deciding not to support any new Digital Asset, fork, or other actions. You acknowledge and accept the risks of operating changes to Digital Asset protocols and agree that Coinbase is not responsible for such operating changes and not liable for any loss of value you may experience as a result of such changes in operating rules. You acknowledge and accept that Coinbase has sole discretion to determine its response to any operating change and that we have no responsibility to assist you with unsupported currencies or protocols. You further acknowledge and accept that Coinbase has no responsibility to support new Digital Asset forks or operating changes for Digital Assets.

2.7. Digital Asset Custody and Title. All Supported Digital Assets held in your Digital Asset Wallet are custodial assets held by Coinbase for your benefit, as described in further detail below.

2.7.1. Ownership. Title to Supported Digital Assets shall at all times remain with you and shall not transfer to Coinbase. All interests in Digital Assets we hold for Digital Asset Wallets are held for customers, are not property of Coinbase, and are not subject to claims of Coinbase’s creditors. As owner of the Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet, you shall bear all risk of loss of such Supported Digital Assets. Coinbase shall have no liability for Supported Digital Asset fluctuations or loss. None of the Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet are the property of, or shall or may be loaned to, Coinbase; Coinbase does not represent or treat assets in User’s Digital Assets as belonging to Coinbase. Coinbase may not grant a security interest in the Supported Digital Assets held in your Digital Asset Wallet. Except as required by law, Coinbase will not sell, transfer, loan, hypothecate, or otherwise alienate Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet unless instructed by you (and, when so instructed by you, only where permitted by law).

2.7.2 Application of the Uniform Commercial Code. All Supported Digital Assets credited to the Digital Asset Wallet will be treated as “financial assets” under Division 8 of the California Uniform Commercial Code (“Division 8”). Coinbase is a “securities intermediary” as used in Division 8 with respect to Supported Digital Assets, and your Digital Asset Wallet is a “securities account” as used in Division 8. As stated in Division 8, “the characterization of a person, business, or transaction for purposes of this division does not determine the characterization of the person, business, or transaction for purposes of any other law, regulation, or rule,” including the United States Commodity Exchange Act and any federal, state, or foreign securities law or regulation. Coinbase will comply with your instructions with respect to your Supported Digital Assets, subject to the terms of this User Agreement.

2.7.3. Control and Customer Instructions. You control the Digital Assets held in your Digital Asset Wallet. At any time, subject to outages, downtime, protocol requirements, time to conduct blockchain operations to fulfill your request, and other applicable policies, you may withdraw your Supported Digital Assets by instructing Coinbase to debit the applicable Supported Digital Asset from your Digital Asset Wallet and transfer the Digital Assets to a different blockchain address. As long as you continue to hold Supported Digital Assets with Coinbase, Coinbase shall retain control over electronic private keys associated with blockchain addresses operated by Coinbase, including the blockchain addresses used to hold the Supported Digital Assets credited to your Digital Asset Wallet.

2.7.4. Omnibus Accounts. In order to more securely and effectively custody assets, Coinbase may use shared blockchain addresses, controlled by Coinbase, to hold Supported Digital Assets for Digital Asset Wallets on behalf of customers and/or held on behalf of Coinbase. Although we maintain separate ledgers for users’ Coinbase Accounts and Coinbase accounts held by Coinbase for its own benefit, Coinbase shall have no obligation to create a segregated blockchain address for your Supported Digital Assets.

2.7.5. Governance and Voting. For certain Digital Assets, the underlying protocols offer stakers the ability to vote on matters related to the governance of protocol-level issues. Coinbase may or may not support voting for such assets, and may cease supporting voting at any time in its discretion. Coinbase will comply with your instruction to vote your Supported Digital Assets to the extent Coinbase or its affiliate supports voting for such Supported Digital Assets. In certain cases, Coinbase may vote on your behalf where Coinbase or the applicable protocol does not support delegated voting; in those instances, Coinbase will vote with the protocol’s recommendation.

2.8. USD Wallet. Your USD Wallet allows you to hold and transfer USD with your Coinbase Account as described in Section 3 below. To the extent your USD is held as cash, the balance of your USD Wallet is maintained in pooled custodial accounts at one or more financial institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (“NCUSIF”). Coinbase may also place your funds in liquid investments, which may include but are not limited to U.S. treasuries or U.S. government money market funds, in accordance with state money transmitter laws. Your funds may be held in any one of these manners. Our custodial cash accounts have been established in a manner to make available pass-through FDIC or NCUSIF insurance available up to the per-depositor coverage limit then in place (currently $250,000 per individual). Availability of pass-through insurance is contingent upon factors including Coinbase having correct information about you as a customer and maintaining accurate records, and on the determination by the relevant federal regulator as receiver, at the time of a receivership of a bank or credit union holding a custodial account. The current list of the insured depository institutions at which Coinbase may deposit customer funds is located here. Coinbase is not an FDIC-insured bank or NCUSIF-insured credit union. Coinbase owns the interest or other earnings on these investments. Coinbase will not use customer funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes. You agree that Coinbase, acting in good faith and in the regular course of business, is the custodian of depository records for your cash held at financial institutions.

2.9. Coinbase Vault. You may elect to hold Supported Digital Assets in Coinbase Vault. Coinbase Vault allows you to create conditions around transfer of your Supported Digital Assets, which may include adding third-parties to approve withdrawals (“Approvers”). For the avoidance of doubt, title to Supported Digital Assets in the Coinbase Vault shall at all times remain with you, and Approvers shall have no ownership interest in such Supported Digital Assets.

2.10. USDC Wallets. You may elect to buy USD Coin (“USDC”) from Coinbase, a Digital Asset issued by Circle Internet Financial (“Circle”) and supported by Coinbase. You are the owner of the balance of your USDC Wallet. Coinbase is not the issuer of USDC, does not hold reserves for USDC, and has no obligation to repurchase your USDC for USD. You can redeem your USDC with Circle, and Coinbase may also elect to repurchase your USDC in exchange for USD. You agree to be bound by the terms of the Circle USDC User Agreement (located at https://www.circle.com/legal/usdc-terms), which provides additional obligations, undertakings, and limitations with respect to USDC.

3. Payment Services, Purchase & Sale Transactions, and Credit Transactions

3.1. USD Funds. You can load funds into your USD Wallet from a valid bank account via ACH transfer or wire transfer. Your USD balance is in a pending state and will not be credited to your USD Wallet until after the bank transfer has cleared, usually within five (5) business days. We may debit your linked bank account as soon as you initiate payment. The name on your linked bank account and your wire transfer must match the name verified on your Coinbase Account.

3.2. Transactions on the Coinbase Site. When you buy or sell Supported Digital Assets on the Coinbase Site (which, for clarity, does not include transactions with Third Party Services (as defined below)), you are not buying Supported Digital Assets from Coinbase or selling Supported Digital Assets to Coinbase. Coinbase acts as the agent, transacting on your behalf, to facilitate that purchase or sale between you and other Coinbase customers. You can purchase Supported Digital Assets on the Coinbase Site using: (i) funds in your USD Wallet; (ii) Supported Digital Assets held in certain Digital Asset Wallets, as permitted by Coinbase; (iii) a valid bank account in the name that matches the name on your Coinbase Account; (iv) a debit or credit card that matches the name on your Coinbase Account; (v) Google Pay; (vi) Apple Pay; (vii) PayPal; or (viii) a Coinbase gift card (each a "Valid Payment Method"). Your purchase must follow the relevant instructions on the Coinbase Site. Coinbase reserves the right to cancel any transaction not confirmed by you within five (5) seconds after Coinbase quotes a transaction price. A purchase of Supported Digital Assets using a Valid Payment Method generally will initiate on the business day we receive your instructions. Purchased Supported Digital Assets will usually be deposited in your Digital Asset Wallet instantly and can be exchanged for other Digital Assets. You will be able to sell or send Purchased Digital Assets as soon as funds have settled to Coinbase, which in the case of a bank account or credit or debit card usually takes up to five (5) business days. You can sell Supported Digital Assets and instruct Coinbase to deposit funds into your Coinbase USD Wallet or, where supported, a Digital Asset Wallet. Supported Digital Asset purchases and sales on the Coinbase Site are collectively referred to herein as “Digital Asset Transactions”. If Coinbase cannot complete your Digital Asset Transaction for any reason (such as price movement, market latency, inability to find a counterparty for your transaction, or order size), Coinbase will reject the order and notify you of such rejection. You will not be charged for a rejected transaction.

3.3. Fees. In general, Coinbase makes money when you purchase or sell Supported Digital Assets on the Coinbase Site. A description of the way fees are calculated can be found on our Pricing and Fees Disclosures Page. By using Coinbase Services you agree to pay all fees and, if applicable based on the service, a spread. While Coinbase reserves the right to adjust its pricing and fees and any applicable waivers at any time, we may provide at least 30 days’ prior notice of certain changes to our pricing schedule, or terms, conditions and policies to users in some states where required by applicable law. We will also notify you of the final price of each transaction, inclusive of pricing and fees, when you authorize the transaction and in each receipt we issue to you. We may charge network fees (miner fees) to process a Digital Asset Transaction on your behalf. We will calculate the network fee at our discretion, and notify you of the network fee at or before the time you authorize the Digital Asset Transaction. Bank fees charged to Coinbase are netted out of transfers to or from Coinbase. You are responsible for paying any additional fees charged by your financial service provider. We will not process a transfer if associated bank fees exceed the value of the transfer. You may be required to deposit additional USD to cover bank fees if you desire to complete such a transfer.

3.4. Recurring Digital Asset Transactions. If you initiate recurring Digital Asset Transactions, you authorize us to initiate recurring electronic payments in accordance with your selected Digital Asset Transaction and any corresponding payment accounts, such as recurring automated clearing house (ACH) debit or credit entries from or to your linked bank account. This authorization will remain in full force and effect until you change your recurring transaction settings at https://www.coinbase.com/transactions or otherwise on the Coinbase Site. Your recurring transactions will occur in periodic installments, based on your period selection (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly), until either you or Coinbase cancels the recurring order. Recurring transactions scheduled for the 29th, 30th, or 31st day of a month will be processed the earlier of the date scheduled or on the last day of the applicable month. For example, recurring transactions scheduled for the 31st will be processed on the 30th in April, June, September, and November. Your recurring transaction will be executed within the 24-hour day on the transaction date. Transaction times may vary. If you select a U.S. Bank Account as your payment method for a recurring transaction, and such transaction falls on a weekend or holiday, or after bank business hours, the ACH credit or debit will be executed on the next business day, although the Digital Asset fees at the time of the regularly-scheduled transaction will apply. If your Bank is unable to process any electronic ACH debit entry, we will notify you of cancellation of the transaction and may use the remedies set forth in this User Agreement to recover any amount owed to Coinbase. You agree to notify Coinbase of any changes in your linked bank account information prior to a recurring transaction. Coinbase may, at any time, suspend or delay recurring transactions without notice or terminate recurring transactions by providing notice to you.

3.5. Revocation. When you give us instructions to purchase Supported Digital Assets, you cannot withdraw your consent to that purchase unless the purchase is not scheduled to occur until a future date e.g. you set up a recurring purchase of Supported Digital Assets (a "Future Transaction"). In the case of a Future Transaction, you may withdraw your consent up until the end of the business day before the date that the Future Transaction is scheduled to take place. To withdraw your consent to a Future Transaction, you must follow the instructions on the Coinbase Site.

3.6. Unauthorized and Incorrect Transactions. When a Digital Asset Transaction or USD transaction occurs using your credentials, we will assume that you authorized such transaction, unless you notify us otherwise. If you believe you did not authorize a particular transaction or that a transaction was incorrectly carried out, you must contact us as soon as possible via our help page at https://help.coinbase.com or by phone at (888) 908-7930 (international call charges may apply). It is important that you regularly check your USD Wallet, Digital Asset Wallet, and any other wallets accessible through the Coinbase Site and your transaction history to ensure you notify us as soon as possible of any unauthorized or incorrect transactions. Reporting an unauthorized transaction does not guarantee Coinbase will be able to reverse the transaction or reimburse you for the transaction.

3.7. Account Information. You will be able to see your USD Wallet and Digital Asset Wallet balances using the Coinbase Site. You can also see your transaction history using the Coinbase Site, including (i) the amount (and currency) of each Digital Asset Transaction; (ii) a reference to the identity of the payer and/or payee (as appropriate); (iii) any fees charged (excluding any spread, or margin, over the prevailing market rate on Coinbase’s trading platform); (iv) if applicable, the rate of exchange, and the amount (in the new currency) after exchange (where you are the payer) or the amount (in the original currency) before the exchange (where you are the payee); and (v) the date of each Digital Asset Transaction.

3.8. Reversals & Cancellations. You cannot cancel, reverse, or change any transaction marked as complete or pending. If your payment is not successful, if your payment method has insufficient funds, or if you reverse a payment made from funds in your bank account, you authorize Coinbase, in its sole discretion, either to cancel the transaction or to debit your other payment methods, including your USD Wallet or Digital Asset Wallet balances or other linked accounts, in any amount necessary to complete the transaction. You are responsible for maintaining an adequate balance and/or sufficient credit limits in order to avoid overdraft, non-sufficient funds (NSF), or similar fees charged by your payment provider. We reserve the right to refuse to process, or to cancel, correct, clawback, or reverse, any Digital Asset Transaction or Transfers in our sole discretion, even after funds have been debited from your account(s), in response to a subpoena, court order, or other government order; or if we suspect the transaction may: involve money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other type of financial crime; be erroneous; or relate to a Prohibited Use or a Prohibited Business as set forth in the Prohibited Use Policy. In such instances, Coinbase will reverse the transaction and we are under no obligation to reinstate a purchase or sale order at the same price or on the same terms as the canceled transaction.

3.9. Payment Services Partners. Coinbase may use a third party payment processor to process any US Dollar payment between you and Coinbase, including but not limited to payments in relation to your use of the Digital Asset Transactions or deposits or withdrawals from your USD Wallet or Coinbase Account.

4. Digital Asset Transfers

4.1. In General. Your Digital Asset Wallet enables you to send Supported Digital Assets to, and request, receive, and store Supported Digital Assets from, third parties by giving instructions through the Coinbase Site. Your transfer of Supported Digital Assets between your other Digital Asset wallets (including wallets off the Coinbase Site) and to and from third parties is a “Digital Asset Transfer”. We recommend customers send a small amount of Supported Digital Assets as a test before sending a significant amount of Supported Digital Assets.

4.2. Pending Transactions. Once a Digital Asset Transfer is submitted to a Digital Asset network, the transaction will be unconfirmed and remain in a pending state for a period of time sufficient to allow confirmation of the transaction by the Digital Asset network. A Digital Asset Transfer is not complete while it is in a pending state. Pending Digital Asset Transfers that are initiated from a Coinbase Account will reflect a pending transaction status and are not available to you for use on the Coinbase Site or otherwise while the transaction is pending.

4.3. Inbound Digital Asset Transfers. When you or a third party sends Digital Assets to a Coinbase Wallet from an external wallet not hosted on Coinbase (“Inbound Transfers”), the person initiating the transaction is solely responsible for executing the transaction properly, which includes ensuring that the Digital Asset being sent is a Supported Digital Asset that conforms to the particular wallet address to which funds are directed, including any required Destination Tag/Memo. By initiating an Inbound Transfer, you attest that you are transacting in a Supported Digital Asset that conforms to the particular wallet address to which funds are directed. For example:

• If you select an Ethereum wallet address to receive funds, you attest that you are initiating an Inbound Transfer of Ethereum alone, and not any other Digital Asset such as Bitcoin or Ethereum Classic.

• If you select a Bitcoin wallet address to receive funds, you attest that you are initiating an Inbound Transfer of Bitcoin alone, and not any other Digital Asset such as Bitcoin Cash or Ethereum.

Coinbase incurs no obligation whatsoever with regard to unsupported Digital Assets sent to a Coinbase Account or with regard to Supported Digital Assets sent to an incompatible Digital Asset wallet address. If you send unsupported Digital Assets to a Coinbase Account or Supported Digital Assets to an incompatible Digital Asset wallet address, then you will lose those Digital Assets. For some lost Digital Assets, Coinbase may in its sole discretion offer you the option to attempt a recovery. We may charge fees to process the recovery attempt on your behalf. We will calculate all fees at our discretion, and notify you of the applicable fees at or before the time you authorize the recovery attempt. For more information, see our Pricing and Fees Disclosures Page. The actual amount recovered may differ from the estimated recovery amount. Coinbase does not evaluate the authenticity, safety, or security of unsupported Digital Assets. You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase is not liable for any loss incurred during the recovery attempt or subsequent use of the recovered Digital Asset.

Coinbase may from time to time determine types of Digital Assets that will be supported or cease to be supported. You acknowledge and agree that you may be required to pay network or miner’s fees in order for an Inbound Transfer transaction to be successful. Insufficient network fees may cause an Inbound Transfer to remain in a pending state on a decentralized network outside of Coinbase’s control, and we are not responsible for delays or loss incurred as a result of an error in the initiation of the transaction and cannot reverse such transactions.

4.4. Outbound Digital Asset Transfers. When you send Supported Digital Assets from your Coinbase Account to an external wallet (“Outbound Transfers”), such transfers are executed at your instruction by Coinbase. You should verify all transaction information prior to submitting instructions to us. Coinbase shall bear no liability or responsibility in the event you enter an incorrect blockchain destination address, incorrect Destination Tag/Memo, or if you send your Supported Digital Assets to an incompatible wallet. We do not guarantee the identity or value received by a recipient of an Outbound Transfer. Digital Asset Transfers cannot be reversed once they have been broadcast to the relevant Digital Asset network, although they may be in a pending state, and designated accordingly, while the transaction is processed by network operators. Coinbase does not control the Digital Asset network and makes no guarantees that a Digital Asset Transfer will be confirmed by the network. We may cancel or refuse to process any pending Outbound Digital Asset Transfers as required by law or any court or other authority to which Coinbase is subject in any jurisdiction. Additionally, we may require you to wait some amount of time after completion of a transaction before permitting you to use further Coinbase Services and/or before permitting you to engage in transactions beyond certain volume limits.

4.5. Transfers to a Recipient Email Address. Coinbase allows you to initiate a Digital Asset Transfer to a Coinbase customer by designating that customer’s email address.

The provisions for each Additional Service herein apply to your use of such Additional Service, in addition to the other applicable provisions of the Agreement. If you do not use any Additional Services, then this Appendix does not apply to you.

1. Coinbase Card

1. Coinbase Card. When you hold Fiat Currency denominated in U.S. Dollars (USD) or Supported Digital Assets on Coinbase, you may be given the option to apply for a Coinbase Visa Card (“Card”) issued by Pathward National Association (“Pathward,” previously known as “Metabank, N.A.”). To use the Card, you must agree to the Coinbase Card terms (“Coinbase Card Terms”) set out below and to the Coinbase Card Cardholder Agreement with Pathward (“Cardholder Agreement”).

1.1. Role of the Coinbase Card Terms. These Coinbase Card Terms govern the basis upon which Coinbase will provide you with the Card and your use of the Card, including within the Coinbase Site. The Card is issued to you by Pathward and should be read in conjunction with the Cardholder Agreement and this User Agreement.

1.2. Role of the Card. The Card can be used to purchase goods and services from merchants at point of sale terminals, over the telephone, online, or on payment platforms, or withdraw cash from automated teller machines (“ATMs”) that accept Visa cards (“Card Transactions”).The Card account at Pathward (“Card Account”) will be linked to your USD Wallet and Digital Asset Wallet. You will be required to elect USD in your USD Wallet or a Supported Digital Asset in your Digital Asset Wallet as your default spending currency (“Preferred Spending Currency”) before you can use your Card and can update your Preferred Spending Currency at any time.

1.3. Card Services. Pursuant to the terms of your Cardholder Agreement, you may use the Card to make various Card Transactions.

1.4. Supported Digital Asset as Preferred Spending Currency. When you select a Supported Digital Asset as your Preferred Spending Currency and use your Card, you authorize Coinbase to facilitate your sale of your Supported Digital Asset, the proceeds of which you authorize Coinbase to use to fund Card Transactions in USD.

1.4.1. Role of Coinbase. Coinbase is responsible for facilitating your sale of your Preferred Digital Asset (“Digital Asset Services”) when applicable, to other Coinbase Customers and transferring funds to your Card Account to enable payments to merchants for the purchase of goods and services, and to you for ATM withdrawals, in USD in the amount authorized by the Card Transaction (the “Purchase Price”).

1.4.2. When you select a Supported Digital Asset as your Preferred Spending Currency and use your Card to make a Card Transaction, you authorize the:

1.4.2.1. Sale of your Preferred Digital Asset in the amount of the Purchase Price plus the accompanying fees and charges described in the Cardholder Agreement if applicable and Section 1.11 of these Coinbase Card Terms and Section 3.3 of this User Agreement (together, the “Total Purchase Price”) and converted at the prevailing trading rate on Coinbase’s trading platform (“Exchange Rate”) (the “Total Transaction Price”) from your Digital Asset Wallet; and

1.4.2.2. Transfer of the Total Purchase Price in Fiat Currency from your Coinbase USD Wallet to the Card Account so that Pathward can facilitate the transfer of: (i) the Purchase Price to the merchant (i.e., for the purchase of goods and services) or to you (i.e., for ATM withdrawals); and (ii) any fees and charges described in the Cardholder Agreement, except for any fees and charges described in this User Agreement via the Visa Card Scheme (“Card Scheme”).

1.5. Applying for the Card. If you apply for a Card, you will be required to provide certain personal information. You agree that we may share personal information you previously provided to us under our Privacy Policy to verify your identity, with Pathward and with service providers acting on our behalf or on Pathward’s behalf solely to verify your identity or address, and/or to manage risk as required under applicable law. Personal information shared with Pathward will be treated in accordance with its Privacy Policy. If you do not provide this information, or if Pathward is unable to verify your identity with the information provided by Coinbase, your application for a Card will not be considered. We may refuse to facilitate processing of your application through Pathward if we determine in our sole discretion that you are in breach of the terms of the User Agreement.

1.6. Activating the Card. You must sign a physical Card as soon as you receive it and must activate the Card to be able to use it. Activation instructions are set out on the packaging that the Card is attached to and within the Coinbase Site. A virtual Card can be used immediately upon receipt and does not need to be activated.

1.7. Using the Card.

1.7.1. You agree that you will use the Card in accordance with these Coinbase Card Terms, this User Agreement, and the Cardholder Agreement.

1.7.2. Your consent will be required in order to use the Card to make a Card Transaction. You may give your consent in the following ways depending on the type of Card Transaction that you are trying to make and the information required by the merchant or ATM:

1.7.2.1. Purchase of goods and services from a merchant on the merchant’s premises from a point of sale terminal or withdrawing cash from an ATM: You may be required to enter the personal identification number (“PIN”) that we will arrange for you to receive from Pathward (or that you may choose) from time to time unless the Card Transaction is being made via a contactless card reader in which case the presentation of the Card will be sufficient to demonstrate consent.

1.7.2.2. Purchase of goods and services from a merchant by telephone, online, or on a payments platform: You may be required to provide Card details such as the Card number, expiration date, and three digit security code from the reverse side of the Card.

1.8. Errors or Unauthorized Transactions. If you believe your Card has been lost or stolen, or that an error or unauthorized transaction has occurred, you should contact Coinbase Customer Service immediately by phone at (888) 908-7930 or email at card@coinbase.com. Coinbase will not be liable for unauthorized transactions. See Section 3 of the Cardholder Agreement for more information regarding your liability for unauthorized transactions. See Section 8 of the Cardholder Agreement for information regarding Error Resolution.

1.9. Maximum Execution Time. The maximum execution time of the Card Transaction itself is dependent on actions being taken by the merchant, ATM owner, Card Scheme and/or other service providers. Coinbase will use commercially reasonable endeavors to comply with and adhere to the Card Scheme’s settlement timing requirements.

1.10. Usage Limits. The usage limits for the Card are set out in Section 4 of your Cardholder Agreement.

1.11. Fees and Charges. When we perform the Digital Asset Services, Coinbase will not charge transaction fees but will include a spread, in accordance with this User Agreement. You can find a list of our fees and charges on our Pricing and Fees Disclosures page which are separate from any fees and charges included in your Cardholder Agreement. You are at all times responsible for the Total Purchase Price in Fiat Currency and the Total Transaction Price in Supported Digital Asset when you make a Card Transaction.

1.12. Refunds. If you are entitled to a refund for any reason for goods or services obtained with your Card, the refund shall be processed in accordance with the terms set out in Section 9(b) of your Cardholder Agreement. Once a refund has been posted by the merchant, we will arrange for it to be refunded to your USD Wallet in Fiat Currency.

1.13. Right to Charge Exchange Rates for Hold Returns. If your Card Transaction is subject to a preauthorization hold as described in Section 7(f) of your Cardholder Agreement, once the amount of the Total Purchase Price is received, we will arrange for any remaining amount to be refunded to your USD Wallet or Digital Asset Wallet (as applicable) in your Preferred Spending Currency, which shall be calculated using the Exchange Rate applicable at the time of refund.

1.14. Information Regarding Card Transactions. You may find details regarding Card Transactions that you have executed in the Coinbase Card portal of the Coinbase Site (“Coinbase Card Portal”).

1.15. Rewards Program. Your Card will be automatically enrolled in our Digital Assets rewards program (“Rewards Program”) upon activation. You will then be able to opt-in to the Rewards Program by electing a Supported Digital Asset from a range of Supported Digital Assets that we may offer from time to time (“Preferred Digital Asset”). After you have opted-in, you will be eligible to earn your Preferred Digital Asset in return for Card Transactions (“Rewards”) except for cash withdrawals, the purchase or re-load of stored value cards and payments made to financial institutions associated with the purchase of merchandise or services or the repayment of loans, credit card balances and debts. The amount of the Reward for a Card Transaction is calculated by multiplying the Purchase Price by the applicable Rewards Percentage which will be published within the Coinbase Card Portal from time to time. This amount will be deposited into your Digital Asset Wallet in your Preferred Digital Asset. Earned and redeemed Rewards will be reflected in your Card Transaction log.

1.16. Exceptions to Rewards Program. We accept no responsibility for the goods or services purchased by you with your Card. All such disputes must be addressed directly with the merchant providing the relevant goods or services. If you receive a return, credit, or chargeback related to a Card Transaction from a merchant for any good or service and we have provided you with a Reward for that Card Transaction, we will be entitled to debit your Digital Asset Wallet the amount of the original Reward using the Exchange Rate applicable at the time of the Card Transaction. Upon the commencement of any proceedings by or against you under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, Rewards cannot be redeemed. We reserve the right to alter, change and/or terminate the Rewards Program, at any time and for any reason, which may result in the cancellation of unredeemed Rewards, upon written (including electronic) notice to you. In addition, we reserve the right to immediately disqualify you from the Rewards Program if you have violated these Coinbase Card Terms or if you have, in our determination, misused the Rewards Program.

1.17. Right to Debit, Access, or Offset Other Coinbase Services. If for any reason you have insufficient Fiat Currency in your USD Wallet or insufficient Supported Digital Asset in the relevant Digital Asset Wallet selected to fund a Card Transaction, we reserve the right to debit, access, or offset the amount of all or part of the Card Transaction from any other Coinbase Service that you obtain from us, including but not limited to any USD or Supported Digital Assets you hold today, or in the future, in any USD Wallet, Digital Asset Wallet, or in connection with any other Coinbase Services. This includes situations where Coinbase has granted you provisional credit in USD or Supported Digital Assets in connection with a disputed Card Transaction that is later resolved in favor of the opposing party.

1.18. Restriction, Suspension, and Termination. Card Transactions or your Card use may be restricted, suspended or terminated with immediate effect in situations where:

1.18.1. We are, in our reasonable opinion, required to do so by contract or by applicable law or any court or other authority to which we are subject in any jurisdiction;

1.18.2. We reasonably suspect you of acting in breach of these Coinbase Card Terms (including any provision of this User Agreement), or the Cardholder Agreement;

1.18.5. If your credit or debit card or any other valid payment method linked to your USD Wallet or Digital Asset Wallet is declined;

1.18.7. You have insufficient USD in your USD Wallet or Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet to cover the Total Transaction Price of a relevant Card Transaction.If Card Transactions, your Card use and/or any or all Coinbase Services are restricted, suspended or terminated in this way, we will (unless it would be unlawful for us to do so), provide you with notice of our actions and the reasons for refusal, restriction, suspension, or termination where appropriate, with the procedure for correcting any factual errors that led to the refusal, suspension or termination. In the event that we decline a card transaction and/or restrict, suspend, or terminate your use of the Card and any/or any or all Coinbase Services, we will reinstate the Card Transaction and/or lift the restriction, suspension, or termination as soon as reasonably practicable once the reasons for decline and/or restriction, suspension, or termination cease to exist.

1.19. These Coinbase Card Terms and the Cardholder Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this User Agreement, including these Coinbase Card Terms and the Cardholder Agreement, the provisions of the Cardholder Agreement shall prevail.

1.20. Coinbase Liability. This section operates in addition to any limitation of liability expressed elsewhere in this User Agreement.

1.20.1. Coinbase will not be liable to you for any loss arising from:

1.20.1.1. A merchant refusing to accept a Card;

1.20.1.3. Pathward restricting, suspending, or terminating a Card or refusing to issue or replace a Card in accordance with these Coinbase Card Terms;

1.20.1.4. Pathward declining a Card Transaction that you make or attempt to make using a Card;

2. USDC Rewards

USDC IS NOT LEGAL TENDER. USDC IS A SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSET AND COINBASE HAS NO RIGHT TO USE ANY USDC IN YOUR COINBASE ACCOUNT. COINBASE IS NOT A DEPOSITORY INSTITUTION, AND YOUR USDC WALLET IS NOT A DEPOSIT ACCOUNT.

1.1. Eligibility. If you are eligible, you can earn rewards for holding USDC in your Coinbase Account. So long as you hold at least $1 of USDC in your Coinbase Account, you will automatically earn amounts of USDC as described below in the “Calculation” section (“USDC Rewards”). If at any time you do not hold at least $1 of USDC in your Coinbase Account, your enrollment in USDC Rewards will be paused until such time that you do hold at least $1 of USDC in your Coinbase Account. During such period you will retain all USDC Rewards previously accrued but not yet distributed. Such accrued rewards will be distributed as described below in the “Calculation” section. If at any time you are deemed ineligible, your enrollment in USDC Rewards will be similarly paused. You can opt-out of, or back into, USDC Rewards at any time by following the instructions here. If you opt-out of USDC Rewards or close your Coinbase Account, you will forfeit the rewards you have accrued (that are not yet distributed for the current calendar month) up to that time.

1.2. Calculation. Rewards are earned on a daily basis in the form of USDC at the then current USDC Rewards Rate. Our current USDC Rewards Rate can be found here. Our current USDC Rewards Annual Percentage Yield, which includes the effect of monthly compounding, can be found here and here. Rewards earned in a particular month are airdropped into your Coinbase USDC wallet within five (5) business days after the start of the next calendar month. USDC Rewards distributed to you are rounded-down to the nearest sixth decimal place. We use the Daily Balance Method to determine the rewards you earn for a particular day, using your average balance of USDC on that specific day as that day’s balance. The rate used to determine rewards earned for a particular day is the then current USDC Rewards Rate divided by 365.

1.3. Changes. We reserve the right to change the USDC Rewards Rate Annual Percentage Yield at any time by notification here and here and by other reasonable means of notice (including e-mail). Unless otherwise stated in the notice, no change will be effective until the first day of the calendar month after such notice is made. We reserve the right to add, change, or delete any provision of these terms and to terminate the USDC rewards program, or your participation in the program, at any time upon notice made in the same manner.

1.4. Definitions.

“USDC Rewards Rate” means the annual rate of rewards earned on a USDC wallet, which does not reflect compounding. The current USDC Rewards Rate can be found here.

“USDC Rewards Annual Percentage Yield” or “APY” means the percentage rate reflecting the total amount of USDC Rewards earned, based on the then current USDC Rewards Rate and end of month compounding for a 365-day period. The current USDC Rewards Annual Percentage Yield can be found here and here.

“Daily Balance Method” means the application of the daily periodic rate (derived from the APY) to the calendar day average of USDC held in your USDC wallet each day.

3. Staking Services

When you hold Supported Digital Assets on Coinbase you may be given the option to “stake” these assets in a third party proof of stake network via staking services provided by Coinbase or an affiliate (including a third party validator operator). Please visit our staking information page for further details on how proof of stake works.

1.1. Staking Services Are Optional and Do Not Affect Ownership. Staking services may be available for some or all of your Supported Digital Assets. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO STAKE WITH COINBASE AND YOU CAN REQUEST TO UNSTAKE AT ANY TIME. FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT THE HELP CENTER. If you choose to stake, Coinbase will perform blockchain operations involving your digital assets as described below. This instruction to stake your digital assets does not affect the ownership of your digital assets in any way. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions for Digital Asset Custody and Title described in Section 2.7 above apply whether or not a digital asset is staked.

1.2. The Service; Rewards; Commission; Limitations. If you stake your assets with us, Coinbase, or one of its affiliates, will facilitate the staking of those assets on your behalf by acting as a transaction validator on the applicable network for the Supported Digital Asset you stake. Depending on the protocol, there may be a delay before your assets are eligible to participate in the transaction validation process and earn rewards. If Coinbase or an affiliate successfully performs a validation task in that Supported Digital Asset, you may earn a reward granted by that Supported Digital Asset’s network. Rewards are determined by the protocols of the applicable network. If the applicable network distributes any rewards in unstaked form, Coinbase will use commercially reasonable efforts to restake those rewards. You may request to unstake your accrued rewards at any time as described in Section 1.4 below. Rewards will be credited to your account by taking into account the amount of your principal and previously accrued rewards that remain staked with Coinbase. Coinbase will credit your account for any earned rewards after receipt by Coinbase, minus a commission. The current commission for each staking asset can be found in the Help Center. Coinbase may change these published commissions at any time, including after your assets have been staked. In addition, Coinbase One members may have the opportunity to opt-in to lower commissions for certain assets, meaning opted-in Coinbase One members will have access to higher net reward rates for those assets (“Boosted Staking Rewards”). Coinbase may also offer lower commissions for certain assets on a promotional basis, and these promotional commissions may differ among Coinbase users. You will be notified if you receive a promotional commission offer.

1.3. Slashing. Some Digital Asset networks subject staked assets to “slashing” if the transaction validator representing those assets incorrectly validates a transaction. Coinbase will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any staked assets from slashing; however, in the event they are, Coinbase will replace your assets so long as such penalties are not a result of: (i) protocol-level failures caused by bugs, maintenance, upgrades, or general failure; (ii) your acts or omissions; (iii) acts or omissions of any third party service provider; (iv) a force majeure event as defined in Section 9.6 of the User Agreement; (v) acts by a hacker or other malicious actor; or (vi) any other events outside of Coinbase’s reasonable control.

1.4. Protocol Lockups and Unstaking. Some Digital Asset networks require that a certain amount of staked assets be locked (restricted from sale or transfer) for a period of time while staking.You will need to request for your staked assets to be unstaked before they can be sold or transferred. When you request to unstake, Coinbase will take blockchain operations on your behalf to wind-down your assets’ participation in the validation process of the relevant protocol. These blockchain operations may take up to 48 hours to complete, in addition to any applicable protocol unstaking period. Depending on the protocol, you may or may not receive staking rewards during the unstaking process. Expected unstaking periods are estimates only. We will notify you when the unstaking process is complete.

1.5. No Guarantee of Rewards. You have no right to a reward until it is received by Coinbase. Rewards will be distributed to your account promptly after they are received by Coinbase, except that Boosted Staking Rewards will be distributed in the month after they are received by Coinbase, within the first 5 business days of the month. Unless otherwise specified, the “staking rewards rate” disclosed by Coinbase for a particular Supported Digital Asset is an annualized historical rate based on the staking rewards generated by Coinbase in providing staking services to Coinbase customers for that Supported Digital Asset, minus our commission. This rate is an estimate and may change over time. COINBASE DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE ANY STAKING REWARDS, INCLUDING THE STAKING REWARDS RATES OR BOOSTED STAKING REWARDS.

1.6. Eligibility. Users who wish to stake through Coinbase must meet certain eligibility requirements, as set forth here. These requirements are subject to change.

1.7. Ethereum Staking and Wrapping. In some jurisdictions, you may choose to obtain the ability to sell, send, spend, or otherwise use your staked ETH by selecting, at your sole discretion, to wrap into a token that represents the ETH that you have staked plus associated rewards. This service is not available everywhere, and additional eligibility requirements may apply. By electing to wrap your staked ETH plus any associated rewards balance into the Coinbase Wrapped Staked ETH known as “cbETH” you understand and agree that:(a) Once wrapped, you cannot redeem your staked ETH or claim any associated rewards except as described in Section 1.8 below.(b) cbETH represents ownership of ETH staked with Coinbase in accordance with this Appendix (including any associated rewards and minus any Coinbase fees and slashing penalties). By wrapping staked ETH as cbETH, you remain entitled to all of the economic value, risk, and rewards of the staked ETH. (c) Selling or otherwise transferring cbETH automatically transfers ownership of the staked ETH and the right to redeem described in Section 1.8 below, and entitles the recipient to the attendant economic value, risk, and rewards of the staked ETH, subject to the terms of this Agreement.(d) Staked ETH and associated rewards that have been wrapped as cbETH are held by Coinbase on behalf of holders of cbETH, and ownership of these assets shall not transfer to Coinbase. Section 2.7 of this Agreement shall apply to staked ETH and associated rewards held on behalf of cbETH holders to the same extent as staked ETH held by Coinbase on behalf of Coinbase customers.(e) cbETH is an ERC-20 token and may be compatible with protocols or other software or technology provided by third parties. (f) The staked ETH held by Coinbase on behalf of cbETH holders are subject to the risk of slashing described in 1.3 above. Depending on when you began staking ETH with Coinbase, you may lose certain slashing protection by wrapping your staked ETH.In addition, you understand, agree and accept the following risks associated with electing to wrap into cbETH:(g) Coinbase does not guarantee the value of your staked ETH principal or associated rewards.(h) Coinbase is not responsible for any decrease in the value of your staked ETH principal or associated rewards.(i) The price of cbETH could diverge from the price of ETH or staked ETH because of market fluctuations, which may be affected by the actions or inactions of market makers or other market participants who receive loans or other incentives to purchase cbETH.(j) Coinbase does not guarantee that wrapping staked ETH will result in a successful exchange or sale of cbETH, and Coinbase will not backstop or otherwise intervene to guarantee cbETH liquidity.(k) Coinbase does not guarantee the security or functionality of any third-party protocol, software or technology intended to be compatible with cbETH and is not responsible for any losses of cbETH due to the failure of third-party protocol, software or technology.(l) As with the protocols for other Digital Assets, Coinbase does not own or control the underlying Ethereum protocol which governs the operation of cbETH. Accordingly, cbETH is subject to Section 2.6 of this User Agreement, like other Digital Assets.(m) As with other Digital Assets, cbETH could be impacted by one or more regulatory actions, which could impede or limit the services we can provide with respect to cbETH.

1.8. Unwrapping/Redemption of cbETH(a) If you hold cbETH in your Coinbase Account and satisfy eligibility requirements, you may instruct Coinbase to “unwrap” your cbETH, thereby redeeming your cbETH for staked ETH plus any associated rewards and minus any Coinbase fees and slashing penalties. Staked ETH and any associated rewards will remain locked until you request unstaking and the protocol unstaking process is completed as described in Section 1.4 above.(b) To unwrap cbETH, you will need to be a Coinbase customer with a Coinbase Account in good standing and be eligible to stake ETH as described above. Additional geographic restrictions may apply, and eligibility is subject to change. Requests to unwrap cbETH may not be processed immediately.

4. Advanced Trading

Coinbase offers, and eligible users may access, an order book for various Supported Digital Asset and Fiat Currency trading pairs (each an “Order Book”) on the Coinbase Site (“Advanced Trading”). See your Coinbase Account to see what Order Books are available within Advanced Trading. Coinbase does not offer Advanced Trading to customers in all jurisdictions. By accessing Advanced Trading or the Coinbase API for Advanced Trading, you accept and agree to be bound by the Trading Rules.

1.1. Trading Fees. By placing an order on Advanced Trading, you agree to pay all applicable fees and authorize Coinbase to automatically deduct fees directly from your account. Trading Fees are set forth in the Trading Rules and are available at https://www.coinbase.com/legal/trading_rules.

1.2. Withdrawal Fees. Coinbase may charge a fee on certain Fiat Currency deposit or withdrawal methods (e.g. bank wire). DEPOSITS AND WITHDRAWALS MAY BE SUBJECT TO LIMITS.

1.3. Trading Account Use. You may not sell, lease, furnish, or otherwise permit or provide access to your Trading Account to any other entity or to any individual that is not your employee or agent. You accept full responsibility for your employees' or agents' use of Advanced Trading, whether such use is directly through Coinbase or by other means, such as those facilitated through API keys, and/or applications which you may authorize. You understand and agree that you are responsible for any and all orders, trades, and other instructions entered into Advanced Trading including identifiers, permissions, passwords, and security codes associated with your Coinbase Account.

1.4. Suspension and Cancellation. In the event that your Coinbase Account is suspended or terminated, we will immediately cancel all open orders associated with your account, block all withdrawals and bar the placing of further orders until resolution or account cancellation.

5. Coinbase One

1. Subscription-Based Membership. Coinbase One is a subscription-based membership. A Coinbase One subscription renews automatically and requires recurring payments.

2. Membership Benefits. Membership benefits may be changed or removed without notice. Some membership benefits are not available in all regions and are not available to all users. As a member, visit member home to see the list of benefits currently available to you. For important disclosures related to your benefits, see our Coinbase One benefit disclosures page. For certain membership benefits, we may partner with a third party to provide you access to services that the third party provides. For those benefits, the third party is the provider of the benefit, not Coinbase.

3. Subscription Fee and Billing. By signing up, you authorize a recurring charge of your subscription fee (plus any applicable tax) to any stored payment method, cash balance, or Digital Asset balance from the date of sign-up (or in the case of a free trial, the date that your free trial concludes) until canceled. To avoid the next charge, cancel via “Manage” in member home before your renewal date. The subscription fee is specified during sign-up and is subject to change. To view your current subscription fee, visit member home. If your primary payment method fails, as a backup you authorize us to charge any stored payment method, cash balance, or Digital Asset balance.

4. Paying Subscription Fee with Digital Assets. When using Digital Assets as your primary payment method or as a backup payment method, you agree that you are instructing Coinbase to debit an amount of your Digital Assets (calculated using the prevailing prices for the Digital Assets as reasonably determined by Coinbase at time of execution) sufficient to pay your subscription fee. You acknowledge that this payment via Digital Assets is subject to Section 6.8 (“Taxes”) of the User Agreement.

5. Cancellation. You can cancel your subscription via “Manage” in member home. Your cancellation will go into effect at the end of your current billing period. To avoid the next charge, cancel before your renewal date.

6. Free Trial. At its sole discretion, Coinbase may offer you a free trial or other promotion. Unless you cancel before the end of your free trial or promotion, your subscription will automatically renew at the end of your free trial or promotion and you will be charged your subscription fee on a recurring basis until you cancel.

7. Termination. Coinbase reserves the right to terminate your subscription at its sole discretion. If we terminate your subscription, you will receive a prorated refund of your subscription fee (prorated based on the termination date and the date that your billing cycle ends). Your subscription cannot be transferred or assigned.

8. Limited Warranty. Your account may be covered by the limited warranty published here. As a member, visit member home to see the list of benefits currently available to you.

6. Dapp Wallet, DEXes, and Decentralized Applications

1. Dapp Wallet. You may elect to use our dapp wallet (“Dapp Wallet”). Our Dapp Wallet allows you to access a digital asset browser and link to decentralized exchanges (“DEXs”) and other decentralized applications (together, “Dapp(s)”). The Dapp Wallet enables users to (i) store Digital Assets; (ii) access a digital asset browser and link to Dapps; (iii) view addresses and information that are part of Digital Asset networks and broadcast transactions; (iv) participate in retail DEX trades and associated DEX activity, and (iv) additional functionality as we may add from time to time.

1.1. Ownership and Control. You own and control Digital Assets held in your Dapp Wallet. As the owner of Digital Assets in your Dapp Wallet, you shall bear all risk of loss of such Digital Assets. Coinbase shall have no liability for Digital Asset fluctuations or loss associated with your use of a Dapp Wallet. At any time, subject to outages, downtime, and other applicable policies, you may withdraw your Digital Assets by sending it to a different blockchain address.

1.2. Third Party Services and Environments. The Services and Coinbase Site may provide access to or link to third-party services, such as DEXs, and/or Dapps (“Third Party Services”). The Services enable you to access DEXs and/or Dapps via a Dapp browser or through a Dapp Wallet by navigating away from the Coinbase Site to the Dapp or DEX, by enabling a native frontend software link within the Coinbase Site, or by purchasing assets in the DEX environment through a Dapp Wallet. When accessing Third Party Services, you understand that you are at no time transferring your assets to us. We provide access to Third Party Services only as a convenience, do not have control over their content, do not warrant or endorse, and are not responsible for the availability or legitimacy of, the content, products, assets, or services on or accessible from those Third Party Services (including any related websites, resources or links displayed therein). Third-party Services, such as Dapps and DEXs, may provide access to assets which have high risks of illiquidity, devaluation, lockup, or loss.

1.3. Fees. You may incur charges from third parties for use of Third Party Services. For example, you may be charged fees via a DEX or Dapp that you may access via the Coinbase Site. Third party fees are not charged by Coinbase and are not paid to Coinbase. Any Coinbase Fee charged will be designated as such, and presented before you submit your transaction.

1.4. Supported Assets. To view the Digital Assets currently supported by the Dapp Wallet, visit https://help.coinbase.com/en/dapps/using-my-dapp-wallet (“Dapp Supported Assets”). Your Dapp Wallet is intended solely for proper use of Dapp Supported Assets. Under no circumstances should you attempt to use your Dapp Wallet to store, send, request, or receive any assets other than Dapp Supported Assets. Coinbase assumes no responsibility in connection with any attempt to use your Dapp Wallet with Digital Assets that we do not support. You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase is not liable for any unsupported Digital Asset that is sent to a wallet address associated with your Dapp Wallet. Coinbase may in its sole discretion terminate support for any particular Digital Asset. Services and supported assets may vary by jurisdiction.

2. Digital Asset Transfers

2.1. In General. Your Dapp Wallet enables you to send Dapp Supported Assets to, and request, receive, and store Dapp Supported Assets from, third parties. Your transfer of Dapp Supported Assets between your other Digital Asset wallets (including wallets off the Coinbase Site) and to and from third parties is a “Dapp Wallet Asset Transfer”. We recommend customers send a small amount of Dapp Supported Assets as a test before sending a significant amount of Dapp Supported Assets.

2.2. Pending Transactions. Once a Dapp Wallet Asset Transfer is submitted to a Digital Asset network, the transaction will be unconfirmed and remain in a pending state for a period of time sufficient to allow confirmation of the transaction by the Digital Asset network. A Dapp Wallet Asset Transfer is not complete while it is in a pending state. Pending Dapp Wallet Asset Transfers that are initiated from a Dapp Wallet will reflect a pending transaction status and are not available to you for use in the Dapp Wallet or otherwise while the transaction is pending.

2.3. Dapp Wallet Inbound Transfers. When you or a third party sends Digital Assets to a Dapp Wallet from an external wallet (“Dapp Wallet Inbound Transfers”), the person initiating the transaction is solely responsible for executing the transaction properly, which includes ensuring that the Digital Asset being sent is a Dapp Supported Asset that conforms to the particular wallet address to which funds are directed, including any required Destination Tag/Memo. By initiating a Dapp Wallet Inbound Transfer, you attest that you are transacting in a Dapp Supported Asset that conforms to the particular wallet address to which funds are directed.

Coinbase incurs no obligation whatsoever with regard to unsupported Digital Assets sent to a Dapp Wallet or with regard to Dapp Supported Assets sent to an incompatible Digital Asset wallet address and/or unsupported network or blockchain. All such erroneously transmitted Digital Assets will be lost. Coinbase may from time to time determine types of Digital Assets that will be supported or cease to be supported. You acknowledge and agree that you may be required to pay network or miner’s fees in order for a Dapp Wallet Inbound Transfer transaction to be successful. Insufficient network fees may cause a Dapp Wallet Inbound Transfer to remain in a pending state outside of Coinbase’s control, and we are not responsible for delays or loss incurred as a result of an error in the initiation of the transaction and have no obligation to assist in the remediation of such transactions.

2.4. Dapp Wallet Outbound Transfers. When you send Digital Assets from your Dapp Wallet to an external wallet (“Dapp Wallet Outbound Transfers”), such transfers are executed at your instruction. You should verify all transaction information prior to submitting instructions. Coinbase shall bear no liability or responsibility in the event you enter an incorrect blockchain destination address, incorrect Destination Tag/Memo, or if you send your Digital Assets to an incompatible wallet. We do not guarantee the identity or value received by a recipient of a Dapp Wallet Outbound Transfer. Dapp Asset Transfers cannot be reversed once they have been broadcast to the relevant Digital Asset network, although they may be in a pending state, and designated accordingly, while the transaction is processed by network operators. Coinbase does not control the Digital Asset network and makes no guarantees that a Dapp Transfer will be confirmed by the network. We may cancel or refuse to process any pending Dapp Wallet Outbound Transfers as required by law or any court or other authority to which Coinbase is subject in any jurisdiction. Additionally, we may require you to wait some amount of time after completion of a transaction before permitting you to use further Coinbase Services and/or before permitting you to engage in transactions beyond certain volume limits.

3. Limitation of Liability. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT LINKED THIRD PARTY SERVICES, THE THIRD PARTIES THEY ARE OWNED AND OPERATED BY, THE INFORMATION CONTAINED ON THEM, ASSETS AVAILABLE THROUGH THEM, OR THE SUITABILITY, PRIVACY, OR SECURITY OF THEIR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY FOR AND ASSUME ALL RISK ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THIRD-PARTY SERVICES, THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES, APPLICATIONS, OR RESOURCES, INCLUDING RISK OF LOSS FOR ASSETS TRADED THROUGH SUCH THIRD-PARTY SERVICES. IN NO EVENT WILL COINBASE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIRD PARTY SERVICES. THIS SECTION OPERATES IN ADDITION TO ANY LIMITATION OF LIABILITY EXPRESSED ELSEWHERE IN THIS USER AGREEMENT.

7. Coinbase Verifications

“Coinbase verifications” is a service that leverages the Ethereum Attestation Service to enable the issuance of Coinbase-verified, onchain attestations against predefined schemas relating to individual Coinbase customers (each, a “Coinbase Attestation”). These onchain attestations may be used by eligible Coinbase customers to help establish identity and reputation when interacting with certain decentralized applications onchain. A Coinbase Attestation issued to you will be stored onchain, and therefore will be public and viewable by anyone. If you do not wish to share this personal information with others by making it publicly available onchain, do not use the Coinbase verifications service. Once a Coinbase Attestation has been issued to you, a record of the attestation may persist in the Ethereum Attestation Service even if you revoke the Coinbase Attestation through your Coinbase account.

1. Eligibility. In order to use the Coinbase verifications service, you must (a) have a registered Coinbase account, (b) have successfully completed identity verification on your account, and (c) be in good standing and eligible to transact on the Coinbase platform. We reserve the right to not offer the Coinbase verifications service to you at our discretion. Not in limitation of the foregoing, we may refuse to offer the Coinbase verifications service to you if the information you provided to create a Coinbase account (as described in the “Issuance” section below) is incomplete, inaccurate, or incorrect, or if you violate these terms, violate applicable law, or engage in behavior that harms our Services (for example, by engaging in fraudulent activity or attempting to circumvent our User Agreement or policies). We may also refuse to offer the Coinbase verifications service to you if your Coinbase account is subject to any type of limitation or review.

2. Issuance. By using the “Coinbase verifications” service and having a Coinbase Attestation issued, you acknowledge that Coinbase may use some or all of the personal information you provide to us, including the information you provided when you opened your Coinbase account and information we collect in accordance with our Privacy Policy from your usage of any Services, to issue one or more Coinbase Attestations.

If you choose to have a Coinbase Attestation issued to you, you acknowledge that personal information or information derived from your personal information will be stored onchain, and therefore will be public and viewable by anyone.

You agree that all the information you provide Coinbase in order to have a Coinbase Attestation issued on your behalf is complete, accurate and correct. A Coinbase Attestation relies on the completeness, accuracy and correctness of information provided by you, which you are ultimately responsible for. A Coinbase Attestation is a representation of the underlying information about you and/or your Coinbase account as of a specific point of time, and does not necessarily reflect any subsequent changes to such information. Coinbase will assume for all intents and purposes that you own and control the private keys associated with the self-hosted wallet that you specify for receipt of any Coinbase Attestation that we issue to you, including for purposes of any tax reporting obligations that Coinbase may become subject to as a result of any reward or other value that is distributed to such self-hosted wallet in connection with such Coinbase Attestation. By using the Coinbase verifications service, you further agree that you will not transfer the Coinbase Attestation to any third party.

A Coinbase Attestation may also be based on data supplied to Coinbase by third parties, including government agencies, third party suppliers of identity verification services and others. Those third parties may change or may, due to change in laws or other reasons, change their policies or services. Therefore, we may be required to amend the provision and scope of any Coinbase Attestation and the corresponding schema, and may do so at any time at our discretion without notice.

3. Use. Certain decentralized applications (each, a “Dapp”) may provide you with access to their applications because you are a holder of one or more Coinbase Attestations. If you do not wish to share any of the personal information that may be contained in a Coinbase Attestation, then do not use the Coinbase verifications service. We reserve the right to modify the scope of any Coinbase Attestation and the corresponding schema at any time without notice.

Unless otherwise specified, Coinbase does not have any affiliation with any Dapp that you may gain access to by virtue of holding one or more Coinbase Attestations, and your use of any such Dapp will be subject to terms and conditions that are between you and the Dapp. Third-party service providers may offer certain products or services that leverage one or more Coinbase Attestations, for example, a “badge” or “checkmark” generated in reliance on a Coinbase Attestation. Your use of such third party products or services may be subject to your acceptance of, and compliance with, separate terms and conditions with such third parties, to which Coinbase is not a party. You acknowledge that Coinbase has no responsibility for the products or services provided by third parties.

Coinbase Attestations are non-transferrable and for your personal use only. You may not impersonate another user or entity in order to obtain a Coinbase Attestation. Purchasing, selling, lending, or renting a Coinbase Attestation is strictly prohibited. If you transfer the private keys associated with the self-hosted wallet to which a Coinbase Attestation has been issued to a third party, we reserve the right to revoke such Coinbase Attestation and take such other action with respect to your Coinbase Account as we deem appropriate and/or necessary in our sole discretion.

Any Coinbase Attestation that is issued to you is provided for informational purposes only and unless otherwise expressly specified by Coinbase, is not intended to be relied upon for any legal, compliance or contractual purpose. You acknowledge and agree that any such reliance by you will be at your own risk, and Coinbase disclaims any and all liability to you or any other third party that may result from such reliance.

Any Coinbase Attestation represents the status of your Coinbase account as of the time of issuance, and subsequent changes to the status of your Coinbase account that result in such attestation no longer being true may not be reflected immediately in the Ethereum Attestation Service. Therefore, Coinbase does not represent, warrant or guarantee that the information contained in any attestation or represented thereby is complete, accurate, or correct. Additionally, you should be aware that the specific processes that Coinbase uses to verify the identities of its customers may differ by jurisdiction.

4. Invalidation. We reserve the right to revoke a Coinbase Attestation that we have issued to you at our discretion, without notice. We may revoke a Coinbase Attestation if the information that was originally used to issue it is or becomes incomplete, inaccurate, or incorrect, or if you violate these terms, violate applicable law, or engage in behavior that harms our Services (for example, by engaging in fraudulent activity or attempting to circumvent our User Agreement or policies). We may also revoke a Coinbase Attestation that we have issued to you if your Coinbase account is subject to a limitation or review, or if we are required to do so in order to comply with a legal requirement or court order.

If you choose to use third party products or services that use or rely upon one or more Coinbase Attestations, like a “badge” or “checkmark”, access to such products or services may be disabled without notice.

5. Limitation of Liability. This section operates in addition to any limitation of liability or warranties expressed elsewhere in this User Agreement.

Coinbase is not liable for any loss, including, for example, a loss of property, profits, revenues, business opportunities, goodwill, or anticipated savings made in reliance on the Coinbase verifications service or any Coinbase Attestation issued thereunder. We are also not liable for indirect or consequential losses, nor are we liable for punitive damages. This limitation of liability extends to our officers, directors, agents, joint venturers, employees, and representatives.

If you are a resident of New Jersey, this limitation of liability is intended to apply only to the extent permitted by New Jersey law.

To the extent allowed by law, the Coinbase verifications service and any Coinbase Attestation issued thereunder are provided “as is.” No promises should be implied (including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement). For example, we don’t make any warranties about the content or features of a Coinbase Attestation, including its accuracy, reliability, availability, or ability to meet your needs. Coinbase does not represent, warrant or guarantee that the information used to issue a Coinbase Attestation is complete, accurate or correct and, accordingly, we do not represent or warrant or guarantee that a Coinbase Attestation is complete, accurate or correct.

8. Coinbase Wrapped Tokens

8.1.  Sending Coinbase Wrapped Tokens.  In some jurisdictions, you may choose to effectuate an Outbound Transfer of a native Digital Asset for which Coinbase provides wrapping services in accordance with the terms herein (each a “Wrappable Native Token”) to an external wallet on a supported protocol, by directing Coinbase to wrap such Wrappable Native Token into a token that is compatible with such protocol. To wrap your Wrappable Native Token and complete an Outbound Transfer of the corresponding Coinbase wrapped token (each, a “Coinbase Wrapped Token”), you will need to be a Coinbase customer with a Coinbase Account in good standing. Additional geographic restrictions may apply, and eligibility is subject to change.  By electing to wrap your Wrappable Native Token into a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token, you understand and agree that:

8.1.1. Coinbase Wrapped Tokens cannot be held on the Coinbase platform, and are only made available to you by Coinbase in connection with an Outbound Transfer of a corresponding Wrappable Native Token to an external wallet on a supported protocol.  Any Coinbase Wrapped Token deposited to your Digital Asset Wallet from an external wallet address will be automatically converted to a corresponding Wrappable Native Token in accordance with, and subject to the conditions set forth in, Section 8.3 of this Appendix 4.

8.1.2.  Requests to wrap your Wrappable Native Token and effectuate an Outbound Transfer of a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token to an external wallet may not be processed immediately.  Once wrapped, you cannot redeem your Coinbase Wrapped Token for a corresponding Wrappable Native Token except as described in Section 8.3 below.

8.1.3. Each Coinbase Wrapped Token represents ownership of a corresponding Wrappable Native Token held by Coinbase in accordance with Section 8.1.5 of this Appendix 4.  By wrapping your Wrappable Native Token in order to effectuate an Outbound Transfer of a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token to an external wallet on a supported protocol, you remain (for so long as you hold the Coinbase Wrapped Token) entitled to all of the economic value and risk of an underlying Wrappable Native Token.  

8.1.4. Selling or otherwise transferring a Coinbase Wrapped Token automatically transfers ownership of an underlying Wrappable Native Token and the right to redeem described in Section 8.3 below, and entitles the recipient to the attendant economic value and risk of an underlying Wrappable Native Token, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

8.1.5.  Wrappable Native Tokens that have been wrapped as Coinbase Wrapped Tokens are held by Coinbase as custodial assets for the benefit of holders of such Coinbase Wrapped Tokens, and ownership of and title to these assets shall remain with such holders and not transfer to Coinbase. Sections 2.7, 2.7.1, 2.7.2, 2.7.3, and 2.7.4 of the User Agreement shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any Wrappable Native Token held on behalf of holders of a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token to the same extent as any Wrappable Native Token held by Coinbase on behalf of Coinbase customers.  

8.1.6. Coinbase Wrapped Tokens are ERC-20 tokens and may be compatible with protocols or other software or technology provided by third parties. 

8.2.  Certain Risks.  In addition, you understand, agree and accept the following risks associated with electing to wrap any Wrappable Native Token into a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token:

8.2.1. Coinbase does not guarantee the value of a Wrappable Native Token held on behalf of holders of a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token.

8.2.2. Coinbase is not responsible for any change in the value of a Wrappable Native Token held on behalf of holders of a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token.

8.2.3. The external price of a Coinbase Wrapped Token could diverge from the price of a corresponding Wrappable Native Token because of market fluctuations, which may be affected by the actions or inactions of market makers or other market participants who receive loans or other incentives to purchase the Coinbase Wrapped Token.  In case of a significant price dislocation, Coinbase may exercise its right to pause redemptions in accordance with Section 8.3.3 of this Appendix 4.

8.2.4. Coinbase does not guarantee that wrapping a Wrappable Native Token will result in a successful exchange or sale of a corresponding Coinbase Wrapped Token, and Coinbase will not have any obligation to backstop or otherwise intervene to guarantee liquidity of such Coinbase Wrapped Token.

8.2.5.  Coinbase does not guarantee the security or functionality of any third-party protocol, software or technology intended to be compatible with a Coinbase Wrapped Token and is not responsible for any losses of any Coinbase Wrapped Token due to the failure of third-party protocol, software or technology.

8.2.6.  As with the protocols for other Digital Assets, Coinbase does not own or control the underlying protocols which govern the operation of any Coinbase Wrapped Token.  Accordingly, all Coinbase Wrapped Tokens are subject to Section 2.6 of the User Agreement, like other Digital Assets.

8.2.7.  As with other Digital Assets, a Coinbase Wrapped Token could be impacted by one or more regulatory actions, which could impede or limit the services we can provide with respect to such Coinbase Wrapped Token.

8.3. Unwrapping/Redemption of a Coinbase Wrapped Token

8.3.1.  If you initiate an Inbound Transfer of a Coinbase Wrapped Token to your Digital Asset Wallet and you satisfy the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 8.3.2 below, Coinbase will automatically “unwrap” such Coinbase Wrapped Token and deposit a corresponding Wrappable Native Token to your Digital Asset Wallet, thereby redeeming your Coinbase Wrapped Token for a corresponding Wrappable Native Token.

8.3.2.  To successfully complete an Inbound Transfer of a Coinbase Wrapped Token to your Digital Asset Wallet, you will need to be a Coinbase customer with a Coinbase Account in good standing. Additional geographic restrictions may apply, and eligibility is subject to change. Requests to complete an Inbound Transfer of a Coinbase Wrapped Token to your Digital Asset Wallet (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will result in Coinbase “unwrapping” such Coinbase Wrapped Token and depositing a corresponding Wrappable Native Token to your Digital Asset Wallet as described in Section 8.3.1 above) may not be processed immediately.

8.3.3.  Additionally, Coinbase may, in our reasonable discretion, (i) pause redemptions of any Coinbase Wrapped Token for a corresponding Wrappable Native Token if there is a significant dislocation in the external market price of such Coinbase Wrapped Token relative to a corresponding Wrappable Native Token that, in Coinbase's sole discretion, suggests that the smart contracts or other technology or security features supporting such Coinbase Wrapped Token have been compromised, (ii) refuse a redemption request if we suspect that the Coinbase Wrapped Token being presented for redemption was acquired through fraudulent means, or (iii) pause redemption if we otherwise suspect that the security of the smart contracts used to mint and burn the applicable Coinbase Wrapped Token has been compromised.   

8.3.4.  Pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, a holder of a Coinbase Wrapped Token holds an ownership interest in a corresponding Wrappable Native Token custodied by Coinbase in accordance with Section 8.1.5 above.  In the event of a shortfall in the amount of the Wrappable Native Token that has been wrapped as a Coinbase Wrapped Token and held by Coinbase in accordance with Section 8.1.5 above, Coinbase’s liability vis-a-vis any holder of such Coinbase Wrapped Token will be limited to such holder’s pro rata share of the shortfall amount.

8.4. Additional Terms.  

8.4.1.  Fees.  Coinbase may charge a fee in connection with a request to mint or unwrap/redeem a Coinbase Wrapped Token, and any such fee will be disclosed to you at the time you initiate such request.  Any changes to such fees will be effectuated in accordance with Section 3.3 of the User Agreement.

8.4.2.  No support for wrapped Coinbase Wrapped Tokens.  We reserve the right to treat any version of a Coinbase Wrapped Token that has been created by a third party (e.g., via a third party wrapper or bridge to an unsupported network) (“Third Party Wrapped Token”) as an unsupported Digital Asset in accordance with Section 2.3 of the User Agreement.  That means that we may refuse or be unable to redeem any Third Party Wrapped Token that is sent to your Digital Asset Wallet for the corresponding Wrappable Native Token, which may result in irreversible loss of such Third Party Wrapped Token. Do not send Third Party Wrapped Tokens to your Digital Asset Wallet.

9. Coinbase One Card

1. Coinbase One Card. If you are a Coinbase One member, you will have the option to apply for a Coinbase One credit card (“Coinbase One Card”). The Coinbase One Card is issued by First Electronic Bank. The Coinbase One Card is subject to approval; not every Coinbase One member will be approved.

10. Restriction, Suspension, and Cancellation. As provided for in the Coinbase One Card Agreement, First Electronic Bank may restrict, suspend, or cancel your access to the Coinbase One Card at any time and for any reason in its sole discretion. It may also refuse any transaction in its sole discretion. This includes if we determine in our sole discretion that you are in breach of the terms of the User Agreement. If you are no longer a Coinbase One member, your Coinbase One Card account may be subject to closure.

11. Coinbase Liability. This section operates in addition to any limitation of liability expressed elsewhere in this User Agreement. In addition to any limitation of liability therein, Coinbase will not be liable to you for any loss arising from:

• A merchant refusing to accept a Coinbase One Card;

• The goods or services that you purchase from a merchant using a Coinbase One Card (however, you have rights in certain situations with respect to First Electronic Bank as specified in the billing-error rights statement that was provided with your Coinbase One Card Agreement);

• Any breach by Coinbase of the User Agreement due to abnormal or unforeseen circumstances beyond Coinbase’s reasonable control, which would have been unavoidable despite Coinbase’s efforts to stop it;

• First Electronic Bank restricting, suspending, or terminating a Coinbase One Card or refusing to issue or replace a Coinbase One Card; 

• First Electronic Bank declining a Credit Card Transaction that you make or attempt to make using a Coinbase One Card;

• Coinbase restricting, suspending, or terminating your USD Wallet, Digital Asset Wallet, or any related Coinbase Services; or

• Coinbase’s compliance with any applicable laws and regulations.

Where a Coinbase One Card is faulty, Coinbase’s liability shall be limited to assisting with the replacement of the physical Coinbase One Card.

10. Coinbase Token Sale Platform

Coinbase makes available a platform (the “Token Sale Platform”) where developers of certain digital assets (“Sellers”) will be able to sell those digital assets (“Sale Tokens”) to eligible users (such sales, “Sales”) (together the “Token Sale Services”).  By accessing the Coinbase Token Sale Platform and purchasing Sale Tokens, you agree to be bound by these additional terms (“Token Sale Terms”).

10.1. Role of the Token Sale Terms. These Token Sale Terms govern the basis upon which Coinbase will provide you with the Token Sale Services and your use of those Token Sale Services, including within the Coinbase Site. These Token Sale Terms should be read in conjunction with this User Agreement.

10.2. Where to Find Information.  The Token Sale Platform for a particular Sale will display certain information related to the Sale, such as the price per Sale Token or the manner of determining price, the minimum and maximum allocation to each purchaser, the manner of allocation, the Supported Digital Assets that are eligible for use as payment, and the start date (the “Opening Date”) and end date (the “Closing Date”) from and to which the Sale Tokens will be available for sale. Prices for tokens on the Token Sale Platform may be displayed in fiat or Supported Digital Assets, but will be payable only in the Supported Digital Assets that are eligible for use as payment.

10.3. Purchasing Sale Tokens. To place an order to purchase Sale Tokens, you must have the required amount of eligible Supported Digital Assets in your Coinbase Account to complete such purchase. On the Opening Date, Coinbase will allow you to commit an amount of eligible Supported Digital Assets determined by you to purchase the relevant Sale Tokens, which will be subject to minimum and maximum allocations and any restrictions you place on your order, if applicable. Such orders constitute a standing specific instruction from you to execute an order to purchase Sale Tokens on the Token Sale Platform.

10.4. Committed Digital Assets. Any Supported Digital Assets that are necessary to fulfill your purchase obligation in full will be committed from the time you place your order (“Committed Digital Assets”). When you place an order on the Token Sale Platform, you authorize Coinbase to lock these Committed Digital Assets until completion of the Sale in a Digital Asset Wallet designated to your Coinbase Account. For the avoidance of doubt, Committed Digital Assets will be treated as “financial assets” under Division 8 of the California Uniform Commercial Code pursuant to Section 2.7.2 of this User Agreement. Your Committed Digital Assets are a request for Sale Tokens and your allocation request may not be filled in its entirety, or at all. The maximum allocation that you can request may be dependent on eligibility. You acknowledge and agree that you will not be able to transfer or withdraw any of the Committed Digital Assets, or modify your request, until the earlier of: (a) the cancellation of the Sale process pursuant to Section 10.7; or (b) the final allocation of Sale Tokens pursuant to Section 10.5, in which case if you did not receive your full allocation you will be free to transfer or withdraw the amount of Committed Digital Assets that were not used to purchase Sale Tokens.

10.5. Sale Completion / Allocation. Following the Closing Date, unless the Sale has been cancelled pursuant to Section 10.7, Coinbase will credit your Digital Asset Wallet with the Sale Tokens you have been allocated and purchased from the Seller, and transfer the corresponding value of Committed Digital Assets to the Seller. Sale Tokens credited to your Digital Asset Wallet are treated as Supported Digital Assets and subject to Section 2.7 of this User Agreement.

10.6. Fees. Coinbase may charge a fee in connection with your order to purchase Sale Tokens and by placing an order on the Token Sale Platform, you agree to pay all applicable fees. To the extent any fee is charged in connection with the Token Sale Platform, information is available here and will be disclosed to you at the time you place such order.

10.7. Sale Cancellation. The Seller or Coinbase may cancel a Sale after it has begun, in which case, to the extent Coinbase is holding any of your Committed Digital Assets, Coinbase will release such Committed Digital Assets within 25 calendar days from the date of the Sale cancellation, they shall cease to be committed to the relevant Sale and you will be able to transfer or withdraw them. 

10.8. Transaction counterparties. In a Sale, you are purchasing Sale Tokens directly from the Seller. Sale Tokens are priced by the Seller. You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase is not the seller, underwriter, or issuer of any Sale Tokens, and by purchasing Sale Tokens, you are entering into an agreement (the terms of which may be displayed on the Token Sale Platform) to purchase the Sale Tokens from Seller. Coinbase is not responsible for any failure by the Seller to comply with the terms of any agreement between you and the Seller, whether set forth on the Token Sale Platform or in other terms provided by the Seller or its related parties. 

10.9. Sale Disclosures. Certain information regarding the Seller and/or Sale Tokens (including but not limited to a whitepaper, description of the Sale Tokens or any associated protocol, or other disclosure materials) may be provided on the Coinbase Site in connection with a Sale (“Sale Disclosures”). The content of the Sale Disclosures is provided by Seller and is for general informational purposes only. Coinbase does not verify information provided by Seller on the Sale Disclosures and makes no assurance, representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, or sufficiency of the information provided and shall have no liability for any inaccuracies in such materials.

10.10. Exclusion of Warranties. Without limitation of Section 8.2 of these Terms, Coinbase makes no warranty with respect to any Sale Tokens, including any warranty of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and/or non-infringement, that the Sale Tokens will be free from errors, glitches, bugs, viruses or other malicious software, that the Sale Tokens or any associated protocol will function as described in any materials provided by the Seller or that any associated protocol will launch, that Seller has complied with applicable law in connection with the issues, development, or sale of the Sale Tokens, or that the use of Sale Tokens or any associated protocol will comply with applicable law. Coinbase does not guarantee that there will be a market in Sale Tokens or that Sale Tokens will maintain any specific price level. Coinbase may cease to support any Sale Tokens (as Supported Digital Assets) following the delivery thereof to your Coinbase Account, and in that case you may need to withdraw your Sale Tokens. Without limiting the foregoing, you assume all risks and liabilities associated with the purchase, sale or use of any Sale Tokens. You are encouraged to consult your own independent advisors before making any decisions based on the content of the Coinbase Site.

10.11. Limitation of Liability. COINBASE MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT SELLERS AND THEIR ASSOCIATED PERSONS, SALE TOKENS, THE ASSOCIATED PROTOCOLS, ASSETS AVAILABLE THROUGH THEM, OR THE SUITABILITY, PRIVACY, OR SECURITY OF THEIR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OR ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED BY ANY OF THEM INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE SALE DISCLOSURES (“THIRD PARTY SERVICES”). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY FOR AND ASSUME ALL RISK ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THIRD-PARTY SERVICES, THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES, APPLICATIONS, OR RESOURCES, INCLUDING RISK OF LOSS FOR ASSETS UTILIZED WITHIN OR TRADED THROUGH SUCH THIRD-PARTY SERVICES. IN NO EVENT WILL COINBASE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIRD PARTY SERVICES. THIS SECTION OPERATES IN ADDITION TO ANY LIMITATION OF LIABILITY EXPRESSED ELSEWHERE IN THIS USER AGREEMENT. 

10.12. Eligibility. In order to use the Token Sale Platform, you must (a) have a registered Coinbase account, (b) have successfully completed identity verification on your account, and (c) be in good standing and eligible to transact on the Coinbase platform. We reserve the right to not offer the Token Sale Platform to you at our discretion. Your eligibility to purchase Sale Tokens in any particular Sale will be based on criteria determined by Coinbase and the Seller in such Sale, and may be different for different Sales.

10.13. Connected Persons. You may not place an order for Sale Tokens if you are an employee, officer, director or contractor of the Seller, its affiliates, or any other entity involved in the development of the Sale Tokens or any associated protocol. 

10.14. Information Disclosure. By using the Token Sale Platform, you acknowledge that Coinbase may share certain information with the Seller for purposes related to the sale and delivery of the Sale Tokens, or as required in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

10.15. Prohibited Use. Your participation in a Sale is subject to our Prohibited Use Policy. In addition, you must not participate in a Sale in a manner which is unfair, abusive, manipulative, or illegal in any way. If you receive information which may amount to inside information in connection with any Sale, you may not participate in that Sale, and you must not unlawfully disclose that information to another person.

APPENDIX 5: DISPUTE RESOLUTION (INCLUDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT; CLASS ACTION WAIVER; JURY TRIAL WAIVER; FORUM SELECTION CLAUSE)

Disputes Defined. “Disputes” are defined as any dispute, claim, or disagreement arising out of or relating in any way to our relationship with you, the Services, the Coinbase Site, any Communications you receive, any products or services sold or distributed through the Coinbase Site, or the User Agreement. The term “Disputes” is intended to be interpreted broadly. The provisions below describe which Disputes belong in arbitration, small claims court, or a court of general jurisdiction.

Pre-Filing Formal Complaint Requirement. Before an arbitration demand or small claims action is filed, you and we agree to exhaust the Formal Complaint Process. See Section 7.1, above.

Arbitration Agreement. You and we agree to arbitrate all Disputes in binding arbitration except for the following types of Disputes:

1. Disputes about whether the Dispute is arbitrable. You and we agree that any Disputes arising out of or related to the interpretation or application of the Arbitration Agreement, including Disputes about the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Dispute Resolution section or any portion of the Dispute Resolution section (including the Arbitration Agreement) shall be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction, not arbitration. This includes, but is not limited to, any dispute about whether the Batch Arbitration provision applies to the Dispute.

2. Disputes that are within the jurisdiction of a small claims court. You and we agree that if a Dispute could be brought in a small claims court in the county or parish in which you reside, then it must be brought in that small claims court, not arbitration, provided that it remains in that court and is not removed or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction.

3. Disagreements about whether a Dispute is within the jurisdiction of a small claims court. You and we agree that any disagreement about whether a Dispute is within the jurisdiction of a small claims court will be resolved by the small claims court in the first instance. Disagreements about whether a Dispute is within the jurisdiction of a small claims court may otherwise be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction, but only after you or we have exhausted resolution from the small claims court.

4. Disputes about or related to infringement or misuse of intellectual property (“IP”) rights (e.g., trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). You and we agree that you or Coinbase must resolve IP Disputes outside of arbitration (e.g., in a court of competent jurisdiction). This means, for example, if you have a Dispute that contains an IP cause of action, which is not arbitrable under this agreement, and other causes of action that are arbitrable, then the arbitrable causes of action must proceed in arbitration and the IP cause of action must proceed outside of arbitration consistent with the other terms of the User Agreement. You and we agree that all IP Disputes shall not be stayed solely on the grounds that there exists a pending arbitration of arbitrable causes of action.

5. Disputes about whether you or we have violated state or federal securities laws. In the event that there is a Dispute about whether you or we have violated state or federal securities laws, you and we agree that such Disputes shall be resolved by a court of competent jurisdiction. This means, for example, if you have a Dispute that contains causes of action under the state or federal securities laws and other causes of action that are arbitrable, then the arbitrable causes of action must proceed in arbitration and the state or federal securities laws causes of action must proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction.

Arbitration Procedure. You and we agree that arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement will, depending on the circumstance, be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) subject to the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. If the AAA is unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration consistent with the Arbitration Agreement, or if the Dispute is part of a Batch Arbitration, you and we agree that JAMS will administer the arbitration subject to the JAMS Rules and Procedures then in effect, including any Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines applicable to the Dispute, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. You and we agree that if JAMS is unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration consistent with the Arbitration Agreement, and the parties cannot agree on an alternative provider that will do so, then you or we may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an administrator that will do so. The AAA and JAMS rules are available at https://adr.org/Rules and https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/. You and we agree that the User Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce and notwithstanding any other provision with respect to the applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. and federal arbitration law (not state arbitration law) will govern any proceedings regarding enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. Any applicable limitations periods (including statutes of limitations) shall apply in arbitration like in court. You and we agree that an arbitral award shall have no preclusive effect in any other proceeding involving other Users. You and we (and your and our counsel, if represented) agree to work together in good faith to ensure that arbitration remains efficient and cost-effective for all parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award sanctions against parties and their counsel consistent with the standard set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11.

Severability. You and we agree to sever arbitrable Disputes (which shall be resolved in arbitration) from Disputes that are not arbitrable (which shall be resolved in court); you and we also agree that if any provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found unenforceable, then that portion of the Arbitration Agreement shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue to control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the “Batch Arbitration” provision would otherwise apply to the Dispute, but a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the “Batch Arbitration” provision is unenforceable as to the Dispute or a portion of the Dispute (and all appeals have been exhausted or the ruling is otherwise final) or JAMS or a JAMS arbitrator refuses to apply all of the provisions of the Batch Arbitration provision as written, then the affected Dispute or portion of the Dispute cannot proceed in arbitration and may proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction consistent with the other terms of the User Agreement unless the parties agree otherwise in writing.

Confidentiality. You and we agree that any information exchanged between us in an arbitration may be used solely for that arbitration. You and we agree that we may not, for example, use information you or we obtained from the other party in one arbitration proceeding in another arbitration proceeding. You and we also agree to keep any information exchanged between us in any arbitration proceeding confidential between us, you, your and our attorneys, and the arbitrator. To the extent additional persons require access to information exchanged for purposes of the arbitration, you and we agree to negotiate in good faith for the entry of a protective order that will impose similar confidentiality obligations.

Arbitrator Appointment. Any arbitrator appointed under the Arbitration Agreement will be selected by the parties from the AAA or JAMS’s roster of arbitrators. If the matter is proceeding before JAMS, then you and we agree that the arbitrator shall be appointed in accordance with JAMS’s strike and rank process set forth in Rule 15 of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures. If the matter is proceeding before AAA, you and we agree that the arbitrator will be appointed through a strike and rank process consistent with the approach taken by JAMS in Rule 15 of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures.

Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Dispute was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). If you or Coinbase need to invoke the authority of a court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration, then the party that obtains an order compelling arbitration in such action shall have the right to collect from the other party its reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in securing an order compelling arbitration. The prevailing party in any court action relating to whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration, including the Formal Complaint Process, is entitled to recover their reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

Waiver of Class, Collective, Representative, Mass Actions, and Other Non-Individualized Relief. YOU AND COINBASE AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THE BATCH ARBITRATION PROVISION SET FORTH BELOW, EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BE BROUGHT, HEARD, ADMINISTERED, RESOLVED, LITIGATED, OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION (SUCH AS A MASS ARBITRATION) BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND DISPUTES OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED, LITIGATED, OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the party's individual claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a court decides by means of a final decision, not subject to any further appeal or recourse, that the limitations of this provision entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief,” are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and Coinbase agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in a court of competent jurisdiction consistent with the other terms of the User Agreement. This provision does not prevent you or Coinbase from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.

Batch Arbitration. You and we agree to abide by this Batch Arbitration provision in the event that: (a) there are twenty-five (25) or more individual arbitration demands of substantially similar nature filed by us against you and other customers or by you and others against us and (b) such arbitration demands are filed with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations. You and we agree that arbitration demands will not be deemed “substantially similar” if they involve claims seeking relief in connection with alleged losses of assets arising from different facts and circumstances. Arbitration demands that trigger the application of this Batch Arbitration provision can be administered in arbitration only pursuant to the provisions of this Batch Arbitration Provision. See Severability, above.

1. If this Batch Arbitration provision is triggered, then JAMS shall:

a. administer the arbitration demands in batches;

b. appoint a single, different arbitrator for each batch unless the parties agree otherwise; and

c. provide for the resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one in-person or video hearing (if any) in a format to be determined by the arbitrator that shall be convenient for the parties. You and we agree that if the Dispute is subject to this Batch Arbitration process, you will personally appear at any hearing (with counsel, if you are represented).

2. The number of batches will depend on the number of arbitration demands that were filed. The batching methodology is set forth below:

a. If there are more than 25 but fewer than 2,000 arbitrations, then there will be 20 batches.

b. If there are 2,000 or more arbitrations, then they will be batched into batches of 100 arbitrations per batch.

c. In deciding which arbitration demands will go in which batch, JAMS shall make the batches as equal as possible in terms of cumulative amount demanded and number of arbitration demands.

3. You and Coinbase (and your and our counsel, if represented) agree to cooperate in good faith with JAMS to implement the Batch Arbitration process including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for each Batch, as well as any steps to minimize the burdens and costs of arbitration.

4. You and we agree that arbitrations administered pursuant to this Batch Arbitration provision may be administered concurrently to the extent administratively feasible.

5. Arbitrators appointed pursuant to this Batch Arbitration provision shall issue separate awards for each Coinbase User involved in a batched proceeding.

Coinbase Business User Agreement

Last updated: October 8, 2025

Welcome to Coinbase! This  User Agreement ("Agreement" or “User Agreement”) between Coinbase, Inc. ("Coinbase," “we,” “us,” and “our”) and the entity you represent (“you”, “your”, “your company”, “user,” or “customer”) governs your use of the services provided by Coinbase described below and such other services that may be offered by Coinbase from time to time ("Coinbase Services" or "Services") to Coinbase Business customers. By signing up to use a “Business Account” (as defined below) through coinbase.com or the Coinbase mobile application (collectively the "Coinbase Site"), you agree that you have read, understand, and accept all of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement including our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Prohibited Use Policy and E-Sign Disclosure and Consent Policy in Appendix 2.  You may have to agree to additional terms and conditions to use certain Additional Services (as defined in relevant appendixes).

Important Definitions: As used throughout this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings.

“Digital Asset” means any digital asset (including a virtual currency or virtual commodity) which is a digital representation of value based on (or built on top of) a cryptographic protocol of a computer network.

"Supported Digital Asset" means only those particular Digital Assets listed as available to trade or custody in your Digital Asset Wallet (as defined below). Services and supported assets may vary by jurisdiction. 

“Authorized Representative” means the executive officer, senior manager or other individual applying for your Business Account with authority to transact and exercise control over your account.  

Amendment of these Terms: We may amend or modify this Agreement at any time by posting the revised agreement on the Coinbase Site and/or providing a copy to you (a “Revised Agreement”). The Revised Agreement shall be effective as of the time it is posted but will not apply retroactively. Your continued use of the Services after the posting of a Revised Agreement constitutes your acceptance of such Revised Agreement. If you do not agree with any such modification, your sole and exclusive remedy is to terminate your use of the Services and close your Business Account. 

Dispute Resolution: PLEASE BE AWARE THAT SECTION 7 (CUSTOMER FEEDBACK, QUERIES, COMPLAINTS, AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION) CONTAINS PROVISIONS GOVERNING HOW TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND COINBASE. AMONG OTHER THINGS, SECTION 7.3 INCLUDES AN AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE WHICH REQUIRES, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION.  PLEASE READ SECTION 7 CAREFULLY.

No Investment Advice or Brokerage: For the avoidance of doubt, Coinbase does not provide investment, tax, or legal advice, and you are solely responsible for determining whether any investment, investment strategy or related transaction is appropriate for you based on your investment objectives, financial circumstances, and risk tolerance. Coinbase may provide educational information about Supported Digital Assets, as well as Digital Assets not supported by Coinbase, in order to assist users in learning more about such Digital Assets. Information may include, but is not limited to, blog posts, articles, links to third-party content, news feeds, tutorials, and videos. The information provided on the Coinbase Site or any such third-party sites does not constitute investment advice, financial advice, trading advice, or any other sort of advice, and you should not treat any of the website's content as such. Coinbase does not recommend that any Digital Asset should be bought, earned, sold, or held by you. Coinbase will not be held responsible for the decisions you make to buy, sell, or hold Digital Assets based on the information provided by Coinbase. 

Coinbase does not broker trades on your behalf unless otherwise specified. All Coinbase trades are executed automatically, based on the parameters of your order instructions and in accordance with posted trade execution procedures.

Acknowledgement of Risk: As with any asset, the value of Digital Assets can increase or decrease and there can be a substantial risk that you lose money buying, selling, holding, or investing in Digital Assets. You should consult your financial advisor, legal, or tax professional regarding your specific situation and financial condition and carefully consider whether trading or holding Digital Assets is suitable for you.  

Coinbase is not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and does not offer securities services in the United States or to U.S. persons or entities.  You acknowledge that Digital Assets are not subject to protections or insurance provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation.

1. Account Setup

1.1. Eligibility. To be eligible to use the Coinbase Services, your company must be (i) a C-corporation, a multi-member LLC or such other entity as Coinbase in its sole discretion offer the Services to from time to time; (ii)  incorporated or otherwise formed in the United States; and (ii) located in the United States with a verifiable address. The Authorized Representative must (i) be at least 18 years old; (ii) be authorized to perform legally-binding actions on behalf of your company, including contractual formation and transaction execution; (iii) have the full power, authority and capacity to access and use the Services; and (iv) have the appropriate sophistication, expertise, and knowledge necessary to understand the nature and risks, and make informed decisions, in respect of Digital Assets and the Services.There are certain Coinbase Services that may or may not be available to you depending on your location and other criteria. 

1.2. Registration of Business Account. You must register for a Business Account to use the Coinbase Services (a "Business Account"  or “your account”). As a regulated financial service company operating in the US we are required to identify users on our platform. You will need to complete certain verification procedures before you are permitted to use the Coinbase Services. This ensures we remain in compliance with applicable anti-money laundering (“AML”) and governmental sanctions laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate, something that is necessary for us to be able to continue to offer Digital Asset exchange services to our customers. Coinbase collects and verifies information about you and individuals at your company in order to: (i) protect Coinbase and the community from fraudulent users; and (ii) to keep appropriate records of Coinbase's customers. You consent to promptly providing such information as Coinbase may reasonably request from time to time regarding: (a) Your company’s policies, procedures, and activities which relate to the Services, in each case to the extent reasonably necessary for Coinbase to comply with any applicable laws, rules, and regulations (including money laundering statutes, regulations and conventions of the United States or other jurisdictions), or the guidance or direction of, or request from, any regulatory authority or financial institution.

By registering or using a Business Account you agree and represent that your Authorized Representative has created your Business Account and your company will use your Business Account only for your company’s purposes, and not on behalf of any third party, unless you have obtained prior written approval from Coinbase. You are fully responsible for all activity that occurs under your Business Account. We may, in our sole discretion, refuse to open a Business Account, suspend or terminate any Business Account, suspend or terminate the sending of Digital Assets from your account, or suspend or terminate the trading of Digital Assets in your account.  Please see Section 6 below for more information.

1.3. Consent to Access, Processing and Storage of Your Personal Data & Identity Verification. During registration for your Business Account, or at any other time deemed necessary by Coinbase, you agree to provide us with the information we request for the purposes of identity / company verification, providing Coinbase Services to you, and the detection of money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other financial crimes and permit us to keep a record of such information. 

The information we request may include certain information about your company including, but not limited to, incorporation documents, taxpayer identification, place of business, finances including bank account information (such as the name of the bank, the account type, routing number, and account number), and company ownership. We may also request personal information about your Authorized Representative and owners of your company, including, but not limited to, name, residential address, telephone number, e-mail address, date of birth, social security number, government identification, and in some cases (where permitted by law), special categories of personal data, such as biometric information. 

You, your Authorized Representative, and your company’s owners consent to us accessing, processing and retaining any business and personal information you provide to us for the purpose of us providing Coinbase Services to you. This consent is not related to, and does not affect, any rights or obligations we or you have in accordance with data protection laws, privacy laws and regulations. You can withdraw your consent at any time by closing your account with us. However, we may retain and continue to process the business and personal information you have provided if we reasonably believe it is necessary in order to comply with laws or regulations. In providing us with this or any other information that may be required, you and your Authorized Representative confirm that the information is accurate and authentic. You and your Authorized Representative agree to keep us updated if any of the information you provide changes. You and your Authorized Representative authorize us to make inquiries, whether directly or through third parties, that we consider necessary to verify the business or personal information you provided or protect you and/or us against fraud or other financial crime, and to take action we reasonably deem necessary based on the results of such inquiries. When we carry out these inquiries, you and your Authorized Representative acknowledge and agree that the business and personal information you provided may be disclosed to credit reference and fraud prevention or financial crime agencies and that these agencies may respond to our inquiries in full. This is an identity check only and should have no adverse effect on your Authorized Representative or your company’s credit ratings. We reserve the right at all times to monitor, review, retain and/or disclose any information you provided as necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, sanctions programs, legal process or governmental request. Further, you authorize your wireless carrier and/or your Authorized Representative’s wireless carrier to use or disclose information about your account and your wireless devices, if available, to Coinbase or its service provider for as long as you have a Business Account, solely to help them identify you or your wireless devices and to prevent fraud. See our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy for more information on how we process the business and personal data you have provided and the rights you have in respect of this.

1.4. Access. The Coinbase Services can be accessed directly using the Coinbase Site. Access to Coinbase Services may become degraded or unavailable during times of significant volatility or volume. This could result in significant support response time delays. Although we strive to provide you with excellent service, we do not represent that the Coinbase Site or other Coinbase Services will be available without interruption and we do not guarantee that any order will be executed, accepted, recorded, or remain open. Coinbase shall not be liable for any losses resulting from or arising out of delays in processing transactions, inability to execute transactions, or lack of timely response from Coinbase customer support. For example, if you are locked out of your Business Account, it is possible that the value or price of the Digital Assets in your account might go down before your access is restored. Coinbase shall not be liable for any alleged losses that you suffer from a drop in Digital Asset values or prices.

2. Hosted Wallet and Custodial Services

2.1. Hosted Wallet Services. As part of your Business Account, Coinbase will provide qualifying users: (i) hosted Digital Asset wallet(s), each of which is an account for holding Supported Digital Assets (“Digital Asset Wallet”), and (ii) a hosted US Dollars ("USD") wallet, which is an account for holding USD (a “USD Wallet“). You may also elect to use other products and services; additional rules associated with such product(s) and services(s) may apply. 

2.2. Hosted Digital Asset Wallet. Your Digital Asset Wallet allows you to store, track, transfer, and manage your balances of Supported Digital Assets. We securely store Digital Asset private keys, which are used to process transactions, in a combination of online and offline storage. As a result of our security protocols, it may be necessary for us to retrieve private keys or related information from offline storage in order to facilitate Digital Asset Transfers (as defined below) in accordance with your instructions, and you acknowledge that this may delay the initiation or crediting of such Digital Asset Transfers. 

2.3. Supported Digital Assets. Your Digital Asset Wallet is intended solely for proper use of Supported Digital Assets as designated on the Coinbase Site. Under no circumstances should you attempt to use your Digital Asset Wallet to store, send, request, or receive any assets other than Supported Digital Assets. Coinbase assumes no responsibility in connection with any attempt to use your Digital Asset Wallet with Digital Assets that we do not support. You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase is not liable for any unsupported Digital Asset that is sent to a wallet associated with your Business Account. Coinbase may in its sole discretion terminate support for any particular Digital Asset. If you do not sell or send such Digital Asset off platform before Coinbase terminates its support for such Digital Asset, then Coinbase may, in its discretion, remove such Digital Asset from your Digital Asset Wallet and credit your Digital Asset Wallet or USD Wallet the equivalent market value of a Supported Digital Asset or fiat currency minus transaction costs. If you have any questions about our current list of Supported Digital Assets, please visit https://help.coinbase.com.

2.4. Supplemental Protocols Excluded. Unless otherwise specifically announced on the Coinbase Site or as set forth in this Agreement, Supported Digital Assets excludes all other protocols and/or functionality which supplement or interact with the Supported Digital Asset. This exclusion includes but is not limited to: metacoins, colored coins, side chains, or other derivative, enhanced, or forked protocols, tokens, or coins or other functionality, such as staking, protocol governance, and/or any smart contract functionality, which may supplement or interact with a Supported Digital Asset. Do not use your Business Account to attempt to receive, request, send, store, or engage in any other type of transaction or functionality involving any such protocol as the Coinbase Site is not configured to detect, secure, or process these transactions and functionality. Any attempted transactions in such items will result in loss of the item. You acknowledge and agree that other than as set forth in this Agreement supplemental protocols are excluded from Supported Digital Assets and that Coinbase has no liability for any losses related to supplemental protocols.

2.5. Fungibility of Certain Digital Assets.  You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase may hold Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallets in a variety of different ways, including across multiple blockchain protocols, such as layer two networks, alternative layer one networks, or side chains. In connection with its holding of Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallets, Coinbase may transfer such Digital Assets off of the primary blockchain protocol and hold such Digital Assets on shared blockchain addresses, controlled by Coinbase, on alternative blockchain protocols in forms compatible with such protocols.  You agree that all forms of the same Digital Asset that are held and made available across multiple blockchain protocols may be treated as fungible and the equivalent of each other, without regard to (a) whether any form of such Digital Asset is wrapped or (b) the blockchain protocol on which any form of such  Digital Asset is stored.

2.6. Operation of Digital Asset Protocols. Coinbase does not own or control the underlying software protocols which govern the operation of Digital Assets. Generally, the underlying protocols are open source, and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. We assume no responsibility for the operation of the underlying protocols and do not guarantee the functionality or security of network operations. In particular, the underlying protocols may be subject to sudden changes in operating rules (including “forks”). Any such operating changes may materially affect the availability, value, functionality, and/or the name of the Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet or other wallet. Coinbase does not control the timing and features of these operating changes. It is your responsibility to make yourself aware of upcoming operating changes and you must carefully consider publicly available information and information that may be provided by Coinbase in determining whether to continue to use a Business Account for the affected Digital Asset. In the event of any such operational change, Coinbase reserves the right to take such steps as may be necessary to protect the security and safety of assets held on the Coinbase Site, including without limitation, temporarily suspending operations for the involved Digital Asset(s); Coinbase will endeavor to provide you notice of its response to any material operating change; however, such changes are outside of Coinbase’s control and may occur without notice to Coinbase. Coinbase’s response to any operating change is subject to its sole discretion and may include deciding not to support any new Digital Asset, fork, or other actions. You acknowledge and accept the risks of operating changes to Digital Asset protocols and agree that Coinbase is not responsible for such operating changes and not liable for any loss of value you may experience as a result of such changes in operating rules. You acknowledge and accept that Coinbase has sole discretion to determine its response to any operating change and that we have no responsibility to assist you with unsupported currencies or protocols. You further acknowledge and accept that Coinbase has no responsibility to support new Digital Asset forks or operating changes for Digital Assets.

2.7. Digital Asset Custody and Title. All Supported Digital Assets held in your Digital Asset Wallet are custodial assets held by Coinbase for your benefit, as described in further detail below.

2.7.1. Ownership. Title to Supported Digital Assets shall at all times remain with you and shall not transfer to Coinbase. All interests in Digital Assets we hold for Digital Asset Wallets are held for customers, are not property of Coinbase, and are not subject to claims of Coinbase’s creditors. As owner of the Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet, you shall bear all risk of loss of such Supported Digital Assets. Coinbase shall have no liability for Supported Digital Asset fluctuations or loss. None of the Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet are the property of, or shall or may be loaned to, Coinbase; Coinbase does not represent or treat assets in User’s Digital Assets as belonging to Coinbase. Coinbase may not grant a security interest in the Supported Digital Assets held in your Digital Asset Wallet. Except as required by law, or except as provided herein, Coinbase will not sell, transfer, loan, hypothecate, or otherwise alienate Supported Digital Assets in your Digital Asset Wallet unless instructed by you.

2.7.2 Application of the Uniform Commercial Code. Supported Digital Assets in the Digital Asset Wallet will be treated as “financial assets” under Division 8 of the California Uniform Commercial Code (“Division 8”). Coinbase is a “securities intermediary” as used in Division 8 with respect to Supported Digital Assets, and your Digital Asset Wallet is a “securities account” as used in Division 8. As stated in Division 8, “the characterization of a person, business, or transaction for purposes of this division does not determine the characterization of the person, business, or transaction for purposes of any other law, regulation, or rule,” including the United States Commodity Exchange Act and any federal, state, or foreign securities law or regulation. Coinbase will comply with your instructions with respect to your Supported Digital Assets, subject to the terms of this User Agreement. 

2.7.3. Control and Customer Instructions. You control the Digital Assets held in your Digital Asset Wallet. At any time, subject to outages, downtime, protocol requirements, time to conduct blockchain operations to fulfill your request, and other applicable policies, you may withdraw your Supported Digital Assets by instructing Coinbase to debit the applicable Supported Digital Asset from your Digital Asset Wallet and transfer the Digital Assets to a different blockchain address. As long as you continue to hold Supported Digital Assets with Coinbase, Coinbase shall retain control over electronic private keys associated with blockchain addresses operated by Coinbase, including the blockchain addresses used to hold the Supported Digital Assets credited to your Digital Asset Wallet.

2.7.4. Omnibus Accounts. In order to more securely and effectively custody assets, Coinbase may use shared blockchain addresses, controlled by Coinbase, to hold Supported Digital Assets for Digital Asset Wallets on behalf of customers and/or held on behalf of Coinbase. Although we maintain separate ledgers for customers’ accounts and accounts held by Coinbase for its own benefit, Coinbase shall have no obligation to create a segregated blockchain address for your Supported Digital Assets.  

2.7.5. Governance and Voting. For certain Digital Assets, the underlying protocols offer stakers the ability to vote on matters related to the governance of protocol-level issues. Coinbase may or may not support voting for such assets, and may cease supporting voting at any time in its discretion. Coinbase will comply with your instruction to vote your Supported Digital Assets to the extent Coinbase or its affiliate supports voting for such Supported Digital Assets. In certain cases, Coinbase may vote on your behalf where Coinbase or the applicable protocol does not support delegated voting; in those instances, Coinbase will vote with the protocol’s recommendation.

2.8. USD Wallet. Your USD Wallet allows you to hold and transfer USD with your Business Account as described in Section 3 below. To the extent your USD is held as cash, the balance of your USD Wallet is maintained in pooled custodial accounts at one or more financial institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (“NCUSIF”).  Coinbase may also place your funds in liquid investments, which may include but are not limited to U.S. treasuries or U.S. government money market funds, in accordance with state money transmitter laws. Your funds may be held in any one of these manners. Our custodial cash accounts have been established in a manner to make available pass-through FDIC or NCUSIF insurance available up to the per-depositor coverage limit then in place (currently $250,000 per account holder). Availability of pass-through insurance is contingent upon factors including Coinbase having correct information about you as a customer and maintaining accurate records, and on the determination by the relevant federal regulator as receiver, at the time of a receivership of a bank or credit union holding a custodial account. The current list of the insured depository institutions at which Coinbase may deposit customer funds is located here. Coinbase is not an FDIC-insured bank or NCUSIF-insured credit union. Coinbase owns the interest or other earnings on these investments. Coinbase will not use customer funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes. You agree that Coinbase, acting in good faith and in the regular course of business, is the custodian of depository records for your cash held at financial institutions.

2.9. USDC Wallets. You may elect to buy USD Coin (“USDC”) from Coinbase, a Digital Asset issued by Circle Internet Financial (“Circle”) and supported by Coinbase. You are the owner of the balance of your USDC Wallet. Coinbase is not the issuer of USDC, does not hold reserves for USDC, and has no obligation to repurchase your USDC for USD. You can redeem your USDC with Circle, and Coinbase may also elect to repurchase your USDC in exchange for USD. You agree to be bound by the terms of the Circle USDC User Agreement (located at https://www.circle.com/legal/usdc-terms), which provides additional obligations, undertakings, and limitations with respect to USDC.

3. Payment Services, Purchase & Sale Transactions, and Credit Transactions

3.1. USD Funds. You can load funds into your USD Wallet from a valid bank account held by your company via wire transfer. Your USD balance is in a pending state and will not be credited to your USD Wallet until after the bank transfer has cleared, usually within five (5) business days. We may debit your linked bank account as soon as you initiate payment. The company name on your Payment Method must match the company name verified on your Business Account. Coinbase may elect to make automated clearing house (ACH) transfers or other payment methods available to you at our discretion. 

3.2. Transactions on the Coinbase Site. When you buy or sell Supported Digital Assets on the Coinbase Site (which, for clarity, does not include transactions with Third Party Services (as defined below)), you are not buying Supported Digital Assets from Coinbase or selling Supported Digital Assets to Coinbase. Coinbase acts as the agent, transacting on your behalf, to facilitate that purchase or sale between you and other Coinbase customers. You can purchase Supported Digital Assets on the Coinbase Site using: (i) funds in your USD Wallet; or (ii) Supported Digital Assets held in certain Digital Asset Wallets, as permitted by Coinbase; or (iii) other payment methods Coinbase may make available to you at our discretion (each a "Payment Method"). Your purchase must follow the relevant instructions on the Coinbase Site. Coinbase reserves the right to cancel any transaction not confirmed by you within five (5) seconds after Coinbase quotes a transaction price. A purchase of Supported Digital Assets using a Payment Method generally will initiate on the business day we receive your instructions. Purchased Supported Digital Assets will usually be deposited in your Digital Asset Wallet instantly and can be exchanged for other Digital Assets. You will be able to sell or send Purchased Digital Assets as soon as funds have settled to Coinbase, which in the case of a bank account usually takes up to five (5) business days. You can sell Supported Digital Assets and instruct Coinbase to deposit funds into your Coinbase USD Wallet or, where supported, a Digital Asset Wallet. Supported Digital Asset purchases and sales on the Coinbase Site are collectively referred to herein as “Digital Asset Transactions”. If Coinbase cannot complete your Digital Asset Transaction for any reason (such as price movement, market latency, inability to find a counterparty for your transaction, or order size), Coinbase will reject the order and notify you of such rejection. You will not be charged for a rejected transaction.

3.3. Fees. In general, Coinbase makes money when you purchase or sell Supported Digital Assets on the Coinbase Site. A description of the way fees are calculated can be found on our Pricing and Fees Disclosures Page. By using Coinbase Services you agree to pay all fees and, if applicable based on the service, a spread. While Coinbase reserves the right to adjust its pricing and fees and any applicable waivers at any time, we may provide at least 30 days’ prior notice of certain changes to our pricing schedule, or terms, conditions and policies to users in some states where required by applicable law. We will also notify you of the final price of each transaction, inclusive of pricing and fees, when you authorize the transaction and in each receipt we issue to you. We may charge network fees (miner fees) to process a Digital Asset Transaction on your behalf. We will calculate the network fee at our discretion, and notify you of the network fee at or before the time you authorize the Digital Asset Transaction. Bank fees charged to Coinbase are netted out of transfers to or from Coinbase. You are responsible for paying any additional fees charged by your financial service provider. We will not process a transfer if associated bank fees exceed the value of the transfer. You may be required to deposit additional USD to cover bank fees if you desire to complete such a transfer.

3.4. Recurring Digital Asset Transactions. Coinbase may elect to make recurring Digital Asset Transactions available to you at our discretion.  If you initiate recurring Digital Asset Transactions, you authorize us to initiate recurring electronic payments in accordance with your selected Digital Asset Transaction and any corresponding Payment Method. This authorization will remain in full force and effect until you change your recurring transaction settings at https://www.coinbase.com/transactions or otherwise on the Coinbase Site. Your recurring transactions will occur in periodic installments, based on your period selection (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly), until either you or Coinbase cancels the recurring order. Recurring transactions scheduled for the 29th, 30th, or 31st day of a month will be processed the earlier of the date scheduled or on the last day of the applicable month. For example, recurring transactions scheduled for the 31st will be processed on the 30th in April, June, September, and November. Your recurring transaction will be executed within the 24-hour day on the transaction date. Transaction times may vary. 

If you select a U.S. Bank Account as your Payment Method for a recurring transaction, and such transaction falls on a weekend or holiday, or after bank business hours, the ACH credit or debit will be executed on the next business day, although the Digital Asset fees at the time of the regularly-scheduled transaction will apply. If your Bank is unable to process any electronic ACH debit entry, we will notify you of cancellation of the transaction and may use the remedies set forth in this User Agreement to recover any amount owed to Coinbase. You agree to notify Coinbase of any changes in your linked bank account information prior to a recurring transaction. Coinbase may, at any time, suspend or delay recurring transactions without notice or terminate recurring transactions by providing notice to you.

3.5. Revocation. When you give us instructions to purchase Supported Digital Assets, you cannot withdraw your consent to that purchase unless the purchase is not scheduled to occur until a future date e.g. you set up a recurring purchase of Supported Digital Assets (a "Future Transaction"). In the case of a Future Transaction, you may withdraw your consent up until the end of the business day before the date that the Future Transaction is scheduled to take place. To withdraw your consent to a Future Transaction, you must follow the instructions on the Coinbase Site.

3.6. Unauthorized and Incorrect Transactions. When a Digital Asset Transaction or USD transaction occurs using your Authorized Representative’s credentials, we will assume that you authorized such transaction, unless you notify us otherwise. If you believe you did not authorize a particular transaction or that a transaction was incorrectly carried out, you must contact us as soon as possible via our help page at https://help.coinbase.com or by phone at (888) 908-7930 (international call charges may apply). It is important that you regularly check your USD Wallet, Digital Asset Wallet, and any other wallets accessible through the Coinbase Site and your transaction history to ensure you notify us as soon as possible of any unauthorized or incorrect transactions. Reporting an unauthorized transaction does not guarantee Coinbase will be able to reverse the transaction or reimburse you for the transaction.

3.7. Account Information. You will be able to see your USD Wallet and Digital Asset Wallet balances using the Coinbase Site. You can also see your transaction history using the Coinbase Site, including (i) the amount (and currency) of each Digital Asset Transaction; (ii) a reference to the identity of the payer and/or payee (as appropriate); (iii) any fees charged (excluding any spread, or margin, over the prevailing market rate on Coinbase’s trading platform); (iv) if applicable, the rate of exchange, and the amount (in the new currency) after exchange (where you are the payer) or the amount (in the original currency) before the exchange (where you are the payee); and (v) the date of each Digital Asset Transaction.

3.8. Reversals & Cancellations. You cannot cancel, reverse, or change any transaction marked as complete or pending. If your payment is not successful, if your Payment Method has insufficient funds, or if you reverse a payment made from funds in your bank account, you authorize Coinbase, in its sole discretion, either to cancel the transaction or to debit your other Payment Methods, including your USD Wallet or Digital Asset Wallet balances or other linked accounts, in any amount necessary to complete the transaction. You are responsible for maintaining an adequate balance to avoid overdraft, non-sufficient funds (NSF), or similar fees charged by your payment provider. We reserve the right to refuse to process, or to cancel, correct, clawback, or reverse, any Digital Asset Transaction or Transfers in our sole discretion, even after funds have been debited from your Account, in response to a subpoena, court order, or other government order; or if we suspect the transaction may: involve money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other type of financial crime; be erroneous; or relate to a Prohibited Use or a Prohibited Business as set forth in the Prohibited Use Policy. In such instances, Coinbase will reverse the transaction and we are under no obligation to reinstate a purchase or sale order at the same price or on the same terms as the canceled transaction.

3.9. Payment Services Partners. Coinbase may use a third party payment processor to process any USD payment between you and Coinbase, including but not limited to payments in relation to your use of the Digital Asset Wallet or deposits or withdrawals from your USD Wallet, including your Business Account.

4. Digital Asset Transfers

4.1. In General. Your Digital Asset Wallet enables you to send Supported Digital Assets to, and request, receive, and store Supported Digital Assets from, third parties by giving instructions through the Coinbase Site. Your transfer of Supported Digital Assets between your other Digital Asset wallets (including wallets off the Coinbase Site) and to and from third parties is a “Digital Asset Transfer”. We recommend you send a small amount of Supported Digital Assets as a test before sending a significant amount of Supported Digital Assets.

4.2. Pending Transactions. Once a Digital Asset Transfer is submitted to a Digital Asset network, the transaction will be unconfirmed and remain in a pending state for a period of time sufficient to allow confirmation of the transaction by the Digital Asset network. A Digital Asset Transfer is not complete while it is in a pending state. Pending Digital Asset Transfers that are initiated from a Business Account will reflect a pending transaction status and are not available to you for use on the Coinbase Site or otherwise while the transaction is pending.

4.3. Inbound Digital Asset Transfers. When you or a third party sends Digital Assets to a Coinbase Wallet from an external wallet not hosted on Coinbase (“Inbound Transfers”), the party initiating the transaction is solely responsible for executing the transaction properly, which includes ensuring that the Digital Asset being sent is a Supported Digital Asset that conforms to the particular wallet address to which funds are directed, including any required Destination Tag/Memo. By initiating an Inbound Transfer, you attest that you are transacting in a Supported Digital Asset that conforms to the particular wallet address to which funds are directed. For example: 

• If you select an Ethereum wallet address to receive funds, you attest that you are initiating an Inbound Transfer of Ethereum alone, and not any other Digital Asset such as Bitcoin or Ethereum Classic. 

• If you select a Bitcoin wallet address to receive funds, you attest that you are initiating an Inbound Transfer of Bitcoin alone, and not any other Digital Asset such as Bitcoin Cash or Ethereum. 

Coinbase incurs no obligation whatsoever with regard to unsupported Digital Assets sent to a Business Account or with regard to Supported Digital Assets sent to an incompatible Digital Asset wallet address. If you send unsupported Digital Assets to a Business Account or Supported Digital Assets to an incompatible Digital Asset wallet address, then you will lose those Digital Assets. For some lost Digital Assets, Coinbase may in its sole discretion offer you the option to attempt a recovery. We may charge fees to process the recovery attempt on your behalf. We will calculate all fees at our discretion, and notify you of the applicable fees at or before the time you authorize the recovery attempt. For more information, see our Pricing and Fees Disclosures Page. The actual amount recovered may differ from the estimated recovery amount. Coinbase does not evaluate the authenticity, safety, or security of unsupported Digital Assets. You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase is not liable for any loss incurred during the recovery attempt or subsequent use of the recovered Digital Asset.

Coinbase may from time to time determine types of Digital Assets that will be supported or cease to be supported. You acknowledge and agree that you may be required to pay network or miner’s fees in order for an Inbound Transfer transaction to be successful. Insufficient network fees may cause an Inbound Transfer to remain in a pending state on a decentralized network outside of Coinbase’s control, and we are not responsible for delays or loss incurred as a result of an error in the initiation of the transaction and cannot reverse such transactions.

4.4. Outbound Digital Asset Transfers. When you send Supported Digital Assets from your Business Account to an external wallet (“Outbound Transfers”), such transfers are executed at your instruction by Coinbase. You should verify all transaction information prior to submitting instructions to us. Coinbase shall bear no liability or responsibility in the event you enter an incorrect blockchain destination address, incorrect Destination Tag/Memo, or if you send your Supported Digital Assets to an incompatible wallet. We do not guarantee the identity or value received by a recipient of an Outbound Transfer. Digital Asset Transfers cannot be reversed once they have been broadcast to the relevant Digital Asset network, although they may be in a pending state, and designated accordingly, while the transaction is processed by network operators. Coinbase does not control the Digital Asset network and makes no guarantees that a Digital Asset Transfer will be confirmed by the network. We may cancel or refuse to process any pending Outbound Digital Asset Transfers as required by law or any court or other authority to which Coinbase is subject in any jurisdiction. Additionally, we may require you to wait some amount of time after completion of a transaction before permitting you to use further Coinbase Services and/or before permitting you to engage in transactions beyond certain volume limits.

4.5. Transfers to a Recipient Email Address. Coinbase allows you to initiate a Digital Asset Transfer to a Coinbase customer by designating that customer’s email address. If you initiate a Digital Asset Transfer to an email address, and the recipient does not have an existing Business Account (or other type of Coinbase account), we will invite the recipient to open a Coinbase account. If the recipient does not open a Coinbase account within thirty (30) days, we will return the relevant Supported Digital Asset to your Digital Asset Wallet.

4.6. Debts. In the event that there are outstanding amounts owed to us hereunder, including in your Business Account, Coinbase reserves the right to debit your Business Account accordingly and/or to withhold amounts from funds you may transfer between your Business Accounts.

5. Data Protection and Security

5.1. Business & Personal Data. You acknowledge that we may process the business and personal data that you have provided or in the future provide to us in relation to your Authorized Representative and other individuals associated with your company, in connection with this Agreement, or the Coinbase Services. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that: (i) your disclosure to us of any personal data relating to individuals was or will be made in accordance with all applicable data protection and data privacy laws, and such data is accurate, up to date and relevant when disclosed; (ii) before providing any such personal data to us, you have read and understood our Privacy Policy, and have (or will at the time of disclosure have) provided a copy of that Privacy Policy (as amended from time to time), to any individual to whom you have shared their data with Coinbase; and (iii) if from time to time we provide you with a replacement version of the Privacy Policy, you will promptly read that notice and provide a copy to any individual whose personal data you have provided to us.

5.2. Security Breach. If you suspect that your Business Account or any of your security details have been compromised or if you become aware of any fraud or attempted fraud or any other security incident (including a cyber-security attack) affecting you and/or Coinbase (collectively a "Security Breach"), you must notify Coinbase Support immediately at https://help.coinbase.com or (888) 908-7930 and provide accurate and up to date information throughout the duration of the Security Breach. You must take any steps that we reasonably require to reduce or manage any Security Breach. Prompt reporting of a Security Breach does not guarantee that Coinbase will reimburse you for any losses suffered or be liable to you for any losses suffered as a result of the Security Breach.

5.3. Computer Viruses. We shall not bear any liability, whatsoever, for any damage or interruptions caused by any computer viruses or other malicious code that may affect your computer or other equipment, or any phishing, spoofing or other attack. We advise the regular use of a reputable and readily available virus screening and prevention software. You should also be aware that SMS and email services are vulnerable to spoofing and phishing attacks and should use care in reviewing messages purporting to originate from Coinbase. Always log into your Business Account through the Coinbase Site to review any transactions or required actions if you have any uncertainty regarding the authenticity of any communication or notice.

6.4. Your Content. Some Coinbase Services let you share your company’s content (for example text, images, video, graphics, audio or other materials, “Your Content”). Before sharing Your Content through the Services, you promise and attest that you own and control all of the intellectual property rights to Your Content (or that you have the necessary license rights to the content) and that Your Content is lawful.

6.5. Transaction Limits. The use of all Coinbase Services may be subject to a limit on the amount of volume, stated in USD terms, you may transact or transfer in a given period (e.g., daily). To view your limits, login to your Business Account and visit https://www.coinbase.com/settings/account-levels . Your transaction limits may vary depending on your Payment Method, verification steps you have completed, and other factors.

6.6. Unclaimed Property. If Coinbase is holding funds (whether fiat currency or Supported Digital Assets) in your account, and has no record of you accessing the Services for several years and is unable to contact you, applicable law may require Coinbase to deliver any such funds to the applicable state or jurisdiction as unclaimed property.

6.7. Password Security; Contact Information. You are responsible for creating a strong password and maintaining security and control of any and all electronic devices, IDs, email addresses, passwords, hints, personal identification numbers (PINs), API keys or any other codes that you use to access the Coinbase Services.

Users are solely responsible for reporting and paying any applicable taxes arising from transactions using Coinbase Services, and acknowledge that Coinbase does not provide investment, legal, or tax advice governing these transactions. You understand that Coinbase shall report information with respect to your transactions, payments, transfers, or distributions made by or to you with respect to your activities using Coinbase Services to a tax or governmental authority to the extent such reporting is required by applicable law. Coinbase also shall withhold taxes applicable to your transactions or to payments or distributions made or deemed made to you to the extent such withholding is required by applicable law. From time to time, Coinbase shall ask you for tax documentation or certification of your taxpayer status as required by applicable law, and any failure by you to comply with this request in the time frame identified may result in withholding and/or remission of taxes to a tax authority as required by applicable law. You should conduct your own due diligence and consult your own tax advisors before making any decisions with respect to Digital Asset transactions.

6.9. Updating Authorized Representative. For security reasons, if we receive legal documentation confirming your Authorized Representative is no longer entitled to access your Business Account, we will freeze your Business Account and during this time, no transactions may be completed until: (i) a new Authorized Representative has been identified by you; and (ii) we have received proof in a form satisfactory to us that the new Authorized Representative is entitled to access your Account. 

6.10. Suspension, Termination, and Cancellation. Coinbase may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to any or all of the Coinbase Services, and/or deactivate or cancel your Business Account, with immediate effect for any reason at its sole discretion and is under no obligation to disclose the details of its decision to take such action with you. You acknowledge that Coinbase's decision to take certain actions, including limiting access to, suspending, or closing your account for any reason in our sole discretion, may be based on confidential criteria that are essential to Coinbase's risk management and security protocols. You agree that Coinbase is under no obligation to disclose the details of its risk management and security procedures to you.

You will be permitted to transfer Supported Digital Assets or funds associated with your hosted Digital Asset Wallet(s) and/or your USD Wallet(s) for ninety (90) days after Account deactivation or cancellation unless such transfer is otherwise prohibited (i) under applicable law, including but not limited to applicable sanctions programs; or (ii) by a facially valid subpoena or court order.

Coinbase may discontinue or change any product, service, or feature, in its sole discretion, at any time. You agree that we may transfer you to a product or service that is reasonably similar to the discontinued or changed product or service, to the extent such product or service exists.

6.12 Consent to Receive Text Messages. By opting in to receive text messages from Coinbase, you verify that the mobile number provided to Coinbase is true and accurate and that your Authorized Representative is the current subscriber or owner or primary user of any telephone number that you provide. By voluntarily providing your telephone number(s) and opting in to receiving text messages from Coinbase, you expressly agree to receive recurring automated text messages (such as SMS, MMS, or successor protocols or technologies) from Coinbase and understand that consent is not required to make any purchase.

Coinbase, carriers and other service providers which support Coinbase in delivering text messages are not responsible for any delayed or undelivered text messages. You acknowledge and agree to accept a final text message confirming your opt-out. We may use different numbers for different messaging purposes, so texting STOP to one number will not effectuate a stop request for all text messaging programs to which you are subscribed. If you would like to stop messages from multiple numbers, text STOP to each number to which you would like to unsubscribe. You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Coinbase for any claims, losses, liability, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from any privacy, tort or other claims, including claims under the Federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act or any state law equivalents, including claims relating to your voluntary provision of a telephone number that is not owned by you.

You further agree that your Company has implemented ongoing customer sanctions screening against applicable Sanctions Regimes lists and that your Company will not instruct or otherwise cause Coinbase to hold any assets or engage in any transaction that would cause Coinbase to violate applicable AML and Sanctions Laws and Regulations.)  You further agree to provide Coinbase with information upon request required by Coinbase to satisfy its AML and Sanctions Regime obligations and that by executing this Agreement, your Company provides written consent to allow Coinbase to request and obtain any and all beneficial owner information regarding your Company that is maintained on any national beneficial ownership registry, including, but not limited to, the Beneficial Ownership Information Registry maintained by the U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”),  in order to assist the Coinbase Entities in complying with their anti-money laundering and customer due diligence obligations, with the understanding that the Coinbase Entities will only use such information for those purposes and will maintain the information pursuant to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.  Finally, your Company agrees that it  shall use the Services for commercial, business purposes only, limited to activities disclosed in the due diligence information submitted to Coinbase, and shall not include any personal, family or household purposes, and that your Company will promptly notify Coinbase in writing in the event you intend to use the Services in connection with any business activities not previously disclosed to Coinbase.

The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, and the award of the arbitrator (the “Award”) shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion. Judgment on the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This Agreement shall not preclude the Parties from seeking provisional relief, including injunctive relief, in any court of competent jurisdiction.

8.2. Limitation of Liability; No Warranty. IN NO EVENT SHALL COINBASE, ITS AFFILIATES AND SERVICE PROVIDERS, OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, JOINT VENTURERS, EMPLOYEES OR REPRESENTATIVES, BE LIABLE (I) FOR ANY AMOUNT GREATER THAN THE VALUE OF THE SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR DIGITAL ASSET WALLET AT THE TIME OF THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE GIVING RISE TO YOUR CLAIM OR (II) FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL OR REPUTATION, LOSS OF DATA, DIMINUTION IN VALUE OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ANY LOSS, DAMAGE, CORRUPTION OR BREACH OF DATA OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE PROPERTY OR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, INTANGIBLE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY USE OF THE COINBASE SITE OR THE COINBASE SERVICES, OR THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF COINBASE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF OR KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OF A FINAL JUDICIAL DETERMINATION THAT SUCH DAMAGES WERE A RESULT OF COINBASE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR INTENTIONAL VIOLATION OF LAW. THIS MEANS, BY WAY OF EXAMPLE ONLY (AND WITHOUT LIMITING THE SCOPE OF THE PRECEDING SENTENCE), THAT IF YOU CLAIM THAT COINBASE FAILED TO PROCESS A BUY OR SELL TRANSACTION PROPERLY, YOUR DAMAGES ARE LIMITED TO NO MORE THAN THE LESSER OF THE VALUE OF THE SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSETS AT ISSUE IN THE TRANSACTION OR THE TOTAL VALUE OF THE SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR DIGITAL ASSET WALLET, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT RECOVER FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, DIMINUTION IN VALUE OR OTHER TYPES OF SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, INTANGIBLE, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ​OR ANY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO DIGITAL ASSETS THAT ARE NOT SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSETS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

THE COINBASE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, COINBASE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND/OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. COINBASE DOES NOT MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES THAT ACCESS TO THE COINBASE SITE, ANY PART OF THE COINBASE SERVICES, OR ANY OF THE MATERIALS CONTAINED THEREIN, WILL BE CONTINUOUS, UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, OR ERROR-FREE.

Coinbase will make reasonable efforts to ensure that requests for electronic debits and credits involving bank accounts and check issuances are processed in a timely manner but Coinbase makes no representations or warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete processing which is dependent upon many factors outside of our control.

​​The foregoing limitations of damages, liability and no warranty provisions set forth above in this Section 8.2 are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between Coinbase and you.

APPENDIX 3:  Additional Services 

In addition to the Services described in the Agreement, the following services ("Additional Services") may be made available by Coinbase to Coinbase Business customers that fulfill certain eligibility criteria. The provisions for each Additional Service herein apply to your use of such Additional Service, in addition to the other applicable provisions of the Agreement. If you do not use any Additional Services, then this Appendix does not apply to you.

1. USDC Rewards

USDC IS NOT LEGAL TENDER. USDC IS A SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSET AND COINBASE HAS NO RIGHT TO USE ANY USDC IN YOUR BUSINESS ACCOUNT. COINBASE IS NOT A DEPOSITORY INSTITUTION, AND YOUR USDC WALLET IS NOT A DEPOSIT ACCOUNT.  

1.1. Eligibility. If you are eligible, you can earn rewards for holding USDC in your Business Account. So long as you hold at least $1 of USDC in your Business Account, you will automatically earn amounts of USDC as described below in the “Calculation” section (“USDC Rewards”). If at any time you do not hold at least $1 of USDC in your Business Account, your enrollment in USDC Rewards will be paused until such time that you do hold at least $1 of USDC in your Business Account. During such period you will retain all USDC Rewards previously accrued but not yet distributed. Such accrued rewards will be distributed as described below in the “Calculation” section. If at any time you are deemed ineligible, your enrollment in USDC Rewards will be similarly paused. You can opt-out of, or back into, USDC Rewards at any time by following the instructions here. If you opt-out of USDC Rewards or close your Business Account, you will forfeit the rewards you have accrued (that are not yet distributed for the current calendar month) up to that time.

1.2. Calculation. Rewards are earned on a daily basis in the form of USDC at the then current USDC Rewards Rate. Our current USDC Rewards Rate can be found here. Our current USDC Rewards Annual Percentage Yield, which includes the effect of monthly compounding, can be found here and here. Rewards earned in a particular month are airdropped into your Coinbase USDC wallet within five (5) business days after the start of the next calendar month. USDC Rewards distributed to you are rounded-down to the nearest sixth decimal place. We use the Daily Balance Method to determine the rewards you earn for a particular day, using your average balance of USDC on that specific day as that day’s balance. The rate used to determine rewards earned for a particular day is the then current USDC Rewards Rate divided by 365.

1.3. Changes. We reserve the right to change the USDC Rewards Rate Annual Percentage Yield at any time by notification here and here and by other reasonable means of notice (including e-mail). Unless otherwise stated in the notice, no change will be effective until the first day of the calendar month after such notice is made. We reserve the right to add, change, or delete any provision of these terms and to terminate the USDC rewards program, or your participation in the program, at any time upon notice made in the same manner.

1.4. Definitions.

“USDC Rewards Rate” means the annual rate of rewards earned on a USDC wallet, which does not reflect compounding. The current USDC Rewards Rate can be found here.

“USDC Rewards Annual Percentage Yield” or “APY” means the percentage rate reflecting the total amount of USDC Rewards earned, based on the then current USDC Rewards Rate and end of month compounding for a 365-day period. The current USDC Rewards Annual Percentage Yield can be found here and here.

“Daily Balance Method” means the application of the daily periodic rate (derived from the APY) to the calendar day average of USDC held in your USDC wallet each day.

2. Staking Services

Staking Services are not available to Coinbase Business customers at this time. However when available the following conditions shall apply. 

When you hold Supported Digital Assets on Coinbase you may be given the option to “stake” eligible assets in a third party proof of stake network via staking services provided by Coinbase or an affiliate (including a third party validator operator). Please visit our staking information page for further details on how proof of stake works.

1.1. Staking Services Are Optional and Do Not Affect Ownership. Staking services may be available for some or all of your Supported Digital Assets. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO STAKE WITH COINBASE AND YOU CAN REQUEST TO UNSTAKE AT ANY TIME. FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT THE HELP CENTER. If you choose to stake, Coinbase will perform blockchain operations involving your digital assets as described below. This instruction to stake your digital assets does not affect the ownership of your digital assets in any way. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions for Digital Asset Custody and Title described in Section 2.7 above apply whether or not a digital asset is staked.

1.2. The Service; Rewards; Commission; Limitations. If you stake your assets with us, Coinbase, or one of its affiliates, will facilitate the staking of those assets on your behalf by acting as a transaction validator on the applicable network for the Supported Digital Asset you stake. Depending on the protocol, there may be a delay before your assets are eligible to participate in the transaction validation process and earn rewards. If Coinbase or an affiliate successfully performs a validation task in that Supported Digital Asset, you may earn a reward granted by that Supported Digital Asset’s network. Rewards are determined by the protocols of the applicable network. If the applicable network distributes any rewards in unstaked form, Coinbase will use commercially reasonable efforts to restake those rewards. You may request to unstake your accrued rewards at any time as described in Section 1.4 below. Rewards will be credited to your account by taking into account the amount of your principal and previously accrued rewards that remain staked with Coinbase. Coinbase will credit your account for any earned rewards after receipt by Coinbase, minus a commission. The current commission for each staking asset can be found in the Help Center. Coinbase may change these published commissions at any time, including after your assets have been staked. Coinbase may also offer lower commissions for certain assets on a promotional basis, and these promotional commissions may differ among Coinbase users. You will be notified if you receive a promotional commission offer.

1.3. Slashing. Some Digital Asset networks subject staked assets to “slashing” if the transaction validator representing those assets incorrectly validates a transaction. Coinbase will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any staked assets from slashing; however, in the event they are, Coinbase will replace your assets so long as such penalties are not a result of: (i) protocol-level failures caused by bugs, maintenance, upgrades, or general failure; (ii) your acts or omissions; (iii) acts or omissions of any third party service provider; (iv) a force majeure event as defined in Section 9.6 of the Coinbase Business User Agreement; (v) acts by a hacker or other malicious actor; or (vi) any other events outside of Coinbase’s reasonable control.

1.4. Protocol Lockups and Unstaking. Some Digital Asset networks require that a certain amount of staked assets be locked (restricted from sale or transfer) for a period of time while staking.

You will need to request for your staked assets to be unstaked before they can be sold or transferred. When you request to unstake, Coinbase will take blockchain operations on your behalf to wind-down your assets’ participation in the validation process of the relevant protocol. These blockchain operations may take up to 48 hours to complete, in addition to any applicable protocol unstaking period. Depending on the protocol, you may or may not receive staking rewards during the unstaking process. Expected unstaking periods are estimates only. We will notify you when the unstaking process is complete.

1.5. No Guarantee of Rewards. You have no right to a reward until it is received by Coinbase. Rewards will be distributed to your account promptly after they are received by Coinbase, except that Boosted Staking Rewards will be distributed in the month after they are received by Coinbase, within the first 5 business days of the month. Unless otherwise specified, the “staking rewards rate” disclosed by Coinbase for a particular Supported Digital Asset is an annualized historical rate based on the staking rewards generated by Coinbase in providing staking services to Coinbase customers for that Supported Digital Asset, minus our commission. This rate is an estimate and may change over time. COINBASE DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE ANY STAKING REWARDS, INCLUDING THE STAKING REWARDS RATES OR BOOSTED STAKING REWARDS.

1.6. Eligibility. Users who wish to stake through Coinbase must meet certain eligibility requirements, as set forth here.  These requirements are subject to change. 

1.7. Ethereum Staking and Wrapping. In some jurisdictions, you may choose to obtain the ability to sell, send, spend, or otherwise use your staked ETH by selecting, at your sole discretion, to wrap into a token that represents the ETH that you have staked plus associated rewards. This service is not available everywhere, and additional eligibility requirements may apply. By electing to wrap your staked ETH plus any associated rewards balance into the Coinbase Wrapped Staked ETH known as “cbETH” you understand and agree that:

(a) Once wrapped, you cannot redeem your staked ETH or claim any associated rewards except as described in Section 1.8 below.

(b) cbETH represents ownership of ETH staked with Coinbase in accordance with this Appendix (including any associated rewards and minus any Coinbase fees and slashing penalties). By wrapping staked ETH as cbETH, you remain entitled to all of the economic value, risk, and rewards of the staked ETH.  

(c) Selling or otherwise transferring cbETH automatically transfers ownership of the staked ETH and the right to redeem described in Section 1.8 below, and entitles the recipient to the attendant economic value, risk, and rewards of the staked ETH, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Staked ETH and associated rewards that have been wrapped as cbETH are held by Coinbase on behalf of holders of cbETH, and ownership of these assets shall not transfer to Coinbase. Section 2.7 of this Agreement shall apply to staked ETH and associated rewards held on behalf of cbETH holders to the same extent as staked ETH held by Coinbase on behalf of Coinbase customers.

(e) cbETH is an ERC-20 token and may be compatible with protocols or other software or technology provided by third parties. 

(f) The staked ETH held by Coinbase on behalf of cbETH holders are subject to the risk of slashing described in 1.3 above. Depending on when you began staking ETH with Coinbase, you may lose certain slashing protection by wrapping your staked ETH.

In addition, you understand, agree and accept the following risks associated with electing to wrap into cbETH:

(g) Coinbase does not guarantee the value of your staked ETH principal or associated rewards.

(h) Coinbase is not responsible for any decrease in the value of your staked ETH principal or associated rewards.

(i) The price of cbETH could diverge from the price of ETH or staked ETH because of market fluctuations, which may be affected by the actions or inactions of market makers or other market participants who receive loans or other incentives to purchase cbETH.

(j) Coinbase does not guarantee that wrapping staked ETH will result in a successful exchange or sale of cbETH, and Coinbase will not backstop or otherwise intervene to guarantee cbETH liquidity.

(k) Coinbase does not guarantee the security or functionality of any third-party protocol, software or technology intended to be compatible with cbETH and is not responsible for any losses of cbETH due to the failure of third-party protocol, software or technology.

(l) As with the protocols for other Digital Assets, Coinbase does not own or control the underlying Ethereum protocol which governs the operation of cbETH.  Accordingly, cbETH is subject to Section 2.6 of this Coinbase Business User Agreement, like other Digital Assets.

(m) As with other Digital Assets, cbETH could be impacted by one or more regulatory actions, which could impede or limit the services we can provide with respect to cbETH.

1.8. Unwrapping/Redemption of cbETH

(a) If you hold cbETH in your Business Account and satisfy eligibility requirements, you may instruct Coinbase to “unwrap” your cbETH, thereby redeeming your cbETH for staked ETH plus any associated rewards and minus any Coinbase fees and slashing penalties. Staked ETH and any associated rewards will remain locked until you request unstaking and the protocol unstaking process is completed as described in Section 1.4 above.

(b) To unwrap cbETH, you will need to be a Coinbase customer with a Business Account in good standing and be eligible to stake ETH as described above. Additional geographic restrictions may apply, and eligibility is subject to change. Requests to unwrap cbETH may not be processed immediately. 

3. Advanced Trading 

Advanced Trading is not available to Coinbase Business customers at this time. However when available the following conditions shall apply. 

If eligible, Coinbase Business users may access an order book for various Supported Digital Asset and Fiat Currency trading pairs (each an “Order Book”) on the Coinbase Site (“Advanced Trading”). See your Business Account to see what Order Books are available within Advanced Trading. Coinbase does not offer Advanced Trading to customers in all jurisdictions. By accessing Advanced Trading or the Coinbase API for Advanced Trading, you accept and agree to be bound by the Trading Rules. 

1.1. Trading Fees. By placing an order on Advanced Trading, you agree to pay all applicable fees and authorize Coinbase to automatically deduct fees directly from your account. Trading Fees are set forth in the Trading Rules and are available at https://www.coinbase.com/legal/trading_rules. 

1.2. Trading Account Use. You may not sell, lease, furnish, or otherwise permit or provide access to your Trading Account to any other entity or to any individual that is not an employee or agent of your company. You accept full responsibility for your employees' or agents' use of Advanced Trading, whether such use is directly through Coinbase or by other means, such as those facilitated through API keys, and/or applications which you may authorize. You understand and agree that you are responsible for any and all orders, trades, and other instructions entered into Advanced Trading including identifiers, permissions, passwords, and security codes associated with your Business Account.

1.3. Suspension and Cancellation. In the event that your Business Account is suspended or terminated, we will immediately cancel all open orders associated with your account, block all withdrawals and bar the placing of further orders until resolution or account cancellation.

4. Payment Links

Please review the following terms and conditions regarding the Payment Links service, including the “Indemnification” section of these terms.

1.1. Payment Links Services. The Coinbase Business Payment Links service (“Payment Links”) allows you to create and share a link to request a specific amount of USDC (or other Digital Assets at Coinbase’s discretion) from a third-party payor (“Links Payor”). Links Payors that have been sent a payment link may connect a self-hosted wallet (or accounts associated with hosted wallets at Coinbase’s discretion) and send USDC to your Digital Asset Wallet. In the event that Coinbase, in its sole discretion, permits you to receive other Digital Assets via Payment Links, the terms in this section applicable to USDC shall also apply to those Digital Assets.  You acknowledge and agree that Coinbase is not party to any transactions conducted through Payment Links (“Payment Links Transactions”), and that Coinbase is not responsible for any goods and/or services that you provide to Links Payors. You further acknowledge and agree that, for the purposes of Payment Links Transactions, Links Payors are not the customers of Coinbase, even if a Links Payor uses a Coinbase account for a Payment Links Transaction.

1.2. Payment Links Protocol. Payment Links Transactions use a smart contracts protocol that enables you to receive USDC as a payment method for goods and services (the “Protocol”). The Protocol has been deployed to Base Chain, a layer-two optimistic rollup on the Ethereum Network. Coinbase may also deploy the Protocol to other blockchains from time to time at its sole discretion. Coinbase does not store any USDC on behalf of Links Payors for the purposes of Payment Links Transactions. To make a Payment Links Transaction, Links Payors will be required to sign and authorize onchain transactions instructing the delivery of USDC to your Digital Asset Wallet. In order to initiate a Payment Links Transaction, Links Payors may be required to pay fees to the applicable digital asset network on which the Payment Links Transaction takes place.  You are responsible for informing your Links Payors of these fees and to explain to your Links Payors how the Protocol functions, including about any risks associated with Payment Links Transactions.  

1.3. Payment Links Use. Your use of Payment Links is subject to Coinbase’s Prohibited Use Policy. You agree that, in connection with Payment Links, you will comply with all applicable laws including but not limited to export restrictions, end-user restrictions, antiterrorism laws, anti-money laundering laws, and economic sanctions, and you agree that you have adequate controls and systems in place to screen, and are fully responsible for screening transactions of Links Payors and all other third parties who may assist, benefit from, or provide goods or services to, or receive goods or services from, you and to ensure compliance with applicable laws. 

Coinbase is not responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the instructions that you or third-party payors provide for Payment Links Transactions, and you agree that Coinbase shall not be liable in any way for losses that you or your Links Payors may incur as a result of errors or omissions in any Payment Links Transactions. Payment Links Transactions cannot be reversed once they have been broadcast to the relevant digital asset network (although they may be in a pending state, and designated accordingly, while the transaction is processed by network operators). Coinbase does not control the digital asset network(s) on which the Payment Links Transactions made in connection with the Protocol occur, and makes no guarantees that a Payment Links Transaction will be confirmed by the relevant digital asset network(s). Payment Links is subject to the limitations of liability and warranties in the general User Agreement, and Coinbase is not liable for any losses you or your Links Payors may incur as a result of (a) digital asset network-level failures caused by bugs, maintenance, upgrades, or general failure; (b) your or your Links Payors’ acts or omissions; (c) acts or omissions of any third party service provider; (d) acts by a hacker or other malicious actor; or (e) any other events outside of Coinbase’s reasonable control. Once a Payment Links Transaction is submitted to a digital asset network, the transaction will be unconfirmed and remain in a pending state for a period of time sufficient to allow confirmation of the transaction by the digital asset network. A Payment Links Transaction is not complete while it is in a pending state, and such pending Payment Links Transactions will reflect a pending transaction status. Coinbase is not liable for any losses you may incur as a result of issues with the relevant digital asset network (e.g., network outages or excessive network congestion) that causes any Payment Links Transaction to remain in a pending state for an extended duration. 

1.4. Indemnification. In addition to any of your indemnification obligations arising under the User Agreement, you will indemnify and hold harmless Coinbase and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and other Coinbase entities from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees arising out of or in any way connected with (i) your or your Links Payors’ access to or use of Payment Links or the Protocol or (ii) your or your Links Payors’ violation of these terms.
