Why Can’t I See My NFTs in Coinbase Wallet?
Coinbase Wallet only supports NFTs on Ethereum and Polygon. It also doesn’t support NFTs that use video or that were created using OpenSea’s “lazy minting” feature. Therefore, many NFTs are not displayed inside the Coinbase Wallet app even though the NFTs are still stored there.
So, let me guess.
You recently decided that you want to buy some NFTs on OpenSea.
Since you’re fairly new to cryptocurrencies and like the convenience that Coinbase provides, you installed Coinbase Wallet app on your smartphone.
You then went on OpenSea, connected your wallet using the Coinbase Wallet app, and eventually bought an NFT.
Yay!
The only problem is that you can see your NFTs in your profile on OpenSea, but for some reason, they aren’t showing up in your Coinbase Wallet.
And THAT is what ultimately led you here.
You think you need to figure out a way how to transfer NFT from OpenSea to Coinbase Wallet.
Well, guess what: You don’t!
Your OpenSea profile and your Coinbase Wallet are one and the same crypto address.
The problem is that the NFT you purchased simply isn’t being displayed within the wallet app.
There 3 reasons why this might happen:
- Reason 1: The data hasn’t synced
- Reason 2: Your NFT’s network is not supported
- Reason 3: Your NFT has an unsupported format
The solution is this problem is quite simple.

How to Transfer NFT from OpenSea to Coinbase Wallet
You can easily transfer your NFTs from OpenSea to any other wallet, including a non-custodial Coinbase Wallet, by using the “Transfer” button on the NFT item page or from your OpenSea profile.
Alright, so maybe we were wrong and you actually use an entirely different crypto wallet on OpenSea (e.g. for security reasons).
And now you want to transfer your NFTs from OpenSea to your Coinbase Wallet.
Please bear in mind that this will only work if you are using a non-custodial Coinbase Wallet.
You cannot transfer your NFTs into a hot wallet that is hosted on the Coinbase exchange.
That will not work.
It must be a non-custodial wallet that only you control.
Transferring an NFT to another wallet is actually quite easy to do.
If you only want to transfer a single NFT, follow these steps:
- Step 1: Go to the NFT’s item page and click the “Transfer” button in the top right corner.
- Step 2: Then enter the recipient’s wallet address and click the blue “Transfer” button.
- Step 3: This will trigger your wallet and you must confirm the transaction (this will cost gas).
You can also transfer multiple NFTs in bulk by following these steps:
- Step 1: Go to your OpenSea profile with the overview of all your NFTs. Click the 3 little dots below an NFT you want to transfer and click the “Transfer” menu item.
- Step 2: Now select all the NFTs you want to transfer and finally click the blue “Transfer” button in the bottom right corner.
- Step 3: Then enter the recipient’s wallet address and click the blue “Send X items” button.
- Step 4: This will open your wallet app and ask you to confirm the transaction.
As you can see, the process of transferring an NFT to another wallet (including Coinbase Wallet) is actually quite simple.
