BaseApp BETA

Welcome to the Base app beta. Coinbase Wallet is now Base, an everything app to create, earn, trade, discover apps, and chat with friends all in one place.Here are answers to some frequently asked questions about the beta! Thank you for building with us. ​ What is Base App Base is the new name for Coinbase Wallet. A new experience is coming, with a current beta for some users. You can continue using the same Coinbase Wallet features in Base App. ​ Who can participate in the beta? The beta is currently open to a limited group of testers. We’ll be rolling out to more users on our waitlist soon. ​ How do I get access to the beta app? Join the waitlist at base.app ​ Basenames I already have a basename but it isn’t showing up/ I don’t have the option to transfer it.

Will my basename show up on Farcaster?

​ Wallet and Funds ​ I logged into the beta, but don’t see my funds from my previous Coinbase Wallet. The Base beta currently only supports smart wallets. Your funds are safe and still in the app. If you created a new smart wallet during the onboarding process, then your previous Externally Owned Account (EOA) wallet will only be available in the classic . You can return to your previous wallet by toggling beta mode off. Navigate to the Social tab (first icon), tap your profile pic, and toggle “beta mode” off. ​ Smart Wallet What is a smart wallet? A smart wallet is a passkey-secured, self-custodial onchain wallet that’s embedded in the app. It’s designed for easy onboarding and better user experience. No browser extensions, no app switching. If you don’t have a smart wallet, you will create one in the onboarding flow for the new beta app. I have Base, but how do I know if I have a smart wallet? If you use a passkey to sign onchain transactions, you have a smart wallet. If you don’t know or you have a 12 word recovery phrase backed up somewhere, you use an EOA (externally owned account), not a smart wallet. From the in-app browser, go to wallet.coinbase.com and log in. If you have a smart wallet, you’ll see it say “smart wallet” in your account details. You’ll be asked to create or import a smart wallet on the way into the beta. If you are uncertain, create a new wallet. Do I need a smart wallet for the beta? Yes. The beta is smart wallet only
