How Do I Set Up My YubiKey for My Coinbase Prime Account?

If you’re a Coinbase Prime user, you can now use your YubiKey for added security when accessing your account. Here’s how to set it up:

1. On the Coinbase Prime website, click on your name in the top right corner and select “Settings” from the drop-down menu.

2. On the Settings page, scroll down to the “Security” section and click on “Two-Factor Authentication.”

3. From the Two-Factor Authentication page, select “YubiKey” as your preferred method.

You will be prompted to insert your YubiKey into your computer’s USB port.

NOTE: WARNING: Before setting up your YubiKey for your Coinbase Prime account, make sure you understand and follow all instructions carefully. Do not attempt to set up your YubiKey if you are unfamiliar with the process or do not have the necessary technical knowledge. Incorrectly setting up your YubiKey could lead to security issues, such as unauthorized access to your Coinbase Prime account.

4. Once your YubiKey is inserted, enter the six-digit code that is generated by pressing the button on your YubiKey.

5. Click “Enable YubiKey.

” You will now be able to use your YubiKey for two-factor authentication when logging into Coinbase Prime.

Adding a YubiKey to your Coinbase Prime account is a great way to add an extra layer of security. With two-factor authentication enabled, even if someone knows your password, they will not be able to access your account unless they also have your YubiKey.
