Coinbase 2FA Authentication Issues
- If you're experiencing issues with Coinbase's two-factor authentication (2FA), here are some common troubleshooting steps that might help
Support
Ensure Correct Code
- Make sure you are entering the correct 2FA code from your authenticator app. The codes are time-sensitive and change every 30 seconds.
Time Sync
- Ensure your device's clock is synced correctly, as time discrepancies can cause 2FA codes to be invalid. Most authenticator apps have an option to sync the time.
Backup Codes
- If you have previously saved backup codes provided by Coinbase, use one of those to regain access.
Reinstall Authenticator App
- If the above steps don't work, try reinstalling your authenticator app and re-adding your Coinbase account
Alternative Methods
- Check if Coinbase offers alternative 2FA methods such as SMS authentication, and try switching to that temporarily.
