Can a Pending Coinbase Transaction Be Cancelled?

It is possible to cancel a pending Coinbase transaction. If you have sent funds to an incorrect address, or if you no longer wish to complete a transaction, you can cancel it before it is processed by the network. To do this, you will need to contact Coinbase support and provide them with the transaction ID of the pending transaction. Once they have this information, they will be able to cancel the transaction for you. There are a few things to keep in mind if you are thinking about cancelling a Coinbase transaction. First, if the transaction has already been processed by the network, it cannot be cancelled.

NOTE: WARNING: It is not possible to cancel or reverse your transaction on Coinbase once it is initiated. Once a transaction has been initiated, the only way to cancel it is by reaching out to the recipient and requesting them to send the funds back. Additionally, pending transactions can take several days or longer to complete, so please ensure you are sending funds to the correct recipient before initiating a transaction.

Second, even if the transaction has not been processed yet, there is no guarantee that it will be cancelled. Coinbase may still choose to process the transaction if they deem it to be valid. Finally, if you are cancelling a transaction because you sent funds to an incorrect address, you may not be refunded the full amount of the transaction. Only Coinbase can determine whether or not you will be refunded, and they may only refund a portion of the funds sent.
