Here's how Transfer Protection's threshold, verification methods, trusted contacts, and time delay work. 🧵

Settings and methods can vary by account or product.

If an option is unavailable or an approval is pending, use official in-app support. Never share your password or 2-step code.
Know the emergency button: use Lock account only if someone has gained unauthorized access. Locking signs you out on all devices; unlocking requires identity verification.
Transfer Protection can add extra checks to outbound transfers. We’ll cover that more here later on.

PENDING ≠ STUCK.
A withdrawal may be waiting on your bank, blockchain confirmations, a security review, or Coinbase processing.
Before you tap “retry,” check the withdrawal method, transaction details, and any status or review notices.👇
Before contacting Support, check:
· the status page
· transaction history
· available balance
· destination/network
· limits
· any hold or review notice.
Don't submit duplicate withdrawals. Keep case numbers and transaction details private.
Check the status page first: status.coinbase.com/
If it’s still unresolved, use the official in-app support. Never share your password, recovery phrase, or 2-step verification code.
