Before you begin

Make sure you have access to the email address you registered with and the device you used for verification. Coinbase Pro uses strong authentication checks and may require multi-factor authentication (MFA) so having your mobile phone or hardware security key nearby is helpful.

Quick tip: Use a modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Safari) and disable browser extensions that inject content into pages during login. This reduces the chance of errors or interference.

Step-by-step sign in

Follow these steps for a smooth login:

Open https://pro.coinbase.com or the official Coinbase Pro app on your device.
Click or tap the Sign In button at the top-right corner of the page.
Enter your registered email address and password, then submit.
If prompted, complete two-factor authentication using your authentication app (e.g., Google Authenticator, Authy) or a security key.
If you set up SMS as a second factor, enter the code sent to your phone.

Common prompts and what they mean

You may see additional verification prompts such as device recognition, captcha challenges, or a request to confirm your login by email. These are security measures intended to verify it’s really you. Follow the instructions on-screen and check your email or authentication app for codes.

Security best practices

Enable a time-based MFA app (TOTP) instead of SMS when possible — it is generally more secure.
Use a strong, unique password managed by a reputable password manager.
Enable withdrawal whitelisting and account notifications so you know if an unfamiliar withdrawal is attempted.
Consider using a hardware security key for the strongest protection against account takeover.
Never share your password, MFA codes, or recovery phrases with anyone claiming to be support.

Troubleshooting login issues

If you cannot sign in, try these steps:

Verify you are on the correct URL and not a phishing page. Check the certificate and domain carefully.
Reset your password using the "Forgot password" link if you can’t remember it.
If MFA codes aren’t working, ensure your device clock is set to the correct time (TOTP depends on clock sync).
Check your email spam folder for verification messages and allowlist Coinbase emails.
Clear browser cache or try an incognito/private window to rule out extension conflicts.

When to contact support

Contact Coinbase support only through the official help center. Reach out if you suspect unauthorized access, if you lose access to your MFA device, or if something in your account appears incorrect. Be ready to verify your identity — support may ask for documentation to protect your account.

Final notes

Logging in to Coinbase Pro should be quick when you prepare ahead: use a secure password, set up and maintain MFA, and verify the site's URL before entering credentials. With those basics in place, you can focus on trading and monitoring your portfolio with confidence.
