Can I Use Coinbase Without ID?

As of now, Coinbase does not allow users to buy digital currency without ID. In order to buy digital currency on Coinbase, you must first sign up for a Coinbase account and provide personal information.

After signing up for an account, you will need to link a payment method in order to be able to buy digital currency. Coinbase currently accepts the following payment methods: US bank account, debit/credit card, and wire transfer (SWIFT/SEPA).

If you do not have a US bank account, debit/credit card, or wire transfer (SWIFT/SEPA), you will not be able to use Coinbase at this time. We understand that some users may not have access to these payment methods and we are working on adding more payment options in the future.

NOTE: WARNING: Using Coinbase without providing valid identification is not recommended. Coinbase requires customers to provide valid identification in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations, and to protect its customers from potential fraud or other illegal activities. Additionally, failure to provide valid identification may prevent you from being able to use certain features of Coinbase or may limit your ability to transfer funds.

Coinbase is committed to complying with all applicable lAWS and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate. To that end, we require all customers who sign up for a Coinbase account to provide their legal name, physical address, date of birth, and government-issued ID.

We use this information to verify your identity and prevent fraud.

We understand that some of our users may not be comfortable with sharing this information with us. We are working on adding more features that will allow users to buy digital currency without ID in the future.

However, at this time, we require all users to provide ID in order to use Coinbase.
