What does "Coinbase entity" on your business application mean?

To understand what features you’ll get on the trading platform, you need to understand which services your Coinbase entity provides. Your business’s country of incorporation is the determining factor for the Coinbase entity you will be aligned to. For example, businesses incorporated in the US must sign up under Coinbase Inc., and businesses incorporated in Singapore must sign up under Coinbase Singapore. There are some exceptions in which your business may actually have a choice.

Please see the chart below to understand what services are available for each Coinbase entity. Additionally, for any questions regarding supported cryptocurrencies, including stablecoins, please see our Supported Cryptocurrencies help page.
