ByA Detailed Guide to Requesting Your Coinbase Refund

The platform was founded in 2012, and it has a revenue of one billion dollars.
If you find the company’s refund policy complicated and you’re not sure how to get your money back, you’ll find this guide to requesting a Coinbase refund useful.
Important Aspects of the Coinbase Refund Policy
Canceling a transaction on Coinbase isn’t possible. If you’d like to get your money back, you will have to contact the merchant directly regarding your refund. Merchants are also responsible for refunds in case you don’t receive the ordered product.
Coinbase will issue a refund only in two situations when their error caused:
- An unauthorized transaction from your account
- An incorrect transaction from your account
It’s important to notify Coinbase about this mistake as soon as possible so that they can look into it and issue a refund to your E-Money Wallet.
You need to make sure to send the cryptocurrency supported by Coinbase, or your funds will be lost and non-recoverable.
