Sell crypto for cash

You can sell your crypto to your cash balance at any time without restriction. Based on the payment methods available to you, you can then transfer, withdraw, or leave your cash balance for future crypto purchases.

Before you sell, make sure you have the latest version of the Coinbase app. Check your available balance and confirm selling to a cash balance is available to you.
