Review our troubleshooting article if you run into any issues.
Wire transfers and other deposits
Wire transfers and funds deposited with Interac, or PIX must be completed through your bank. When you select Interac or PIX in your Coinbase account, you'll see the information you need to provide your bank.
Wire deposit details
Overnight wire transfers or next-day ACH are not supported.
Coinbase's partner banks cannot assist with wire-related issues.
Fees: $10 for incoming transfers, $25 for outgoing transfers.
Wire transfer requirements
The transfer must originate from the country you’re located in.
Leave the Reference to Beneficiary field blank unless a unique reference code is required.
Include either a unique reference code or a Coinbase virtual account number.
Wire transfers that don't meet these requirements will be rejected and returned within 1-3 business days.
Deposit with Interac e-Transfer or EFT
A successful deposit with Interac verifies your bank account. Most deposits process within a few minutes, but depending on your bank's processing time, some may take up to 24 hours.
After initiating a deposit on Coinbase, sign in to your bank to complete the deposit.
If your e-Transfer payment is canceled, contact your bank with the transaction details.
If the issue isn't resolved within 6 hours, Coinbase will void your deposit and notify you via email.
For additional help, review Troubleshooting Interac.
Deposit with PIX
Deposits using PIX have a minimum deposit amount of 1 real and may take up to 30 minutes to process. Copy the generated PIX code from Coinbase and use it in your banking app.
Make sure that:
Your Coinbase CPF matches your bank CPF to avoid funds being returned.
You've completed a successful deposit with PIX before attempting a withdrawal.
