Coinbase Expands In India With Direct Rupee Banking Support

Coinbase is expanding in India by allowing users to deposit and withdraw Indian rupees (INR) directly. Beginning June 1, 2026, customers can transfer funds between their bank accounts and Coinbase using the Immediate Payment Service (IMPS), making crypto trading simpler and more accessible.

Many Indian crypto users have long relied on peer-to-peer transactions or third-party payment channels to fund their accounts. These options often caused delays, made things more complicated, and sometimes led to risks like payment fraud or frozen bank accounts. With direct banking integration, Coinbase wants to make moving money between local banks and the exchange much easier.

This step shows Coinbase’s growing confidence in India’s crypto market. India is now one of the world’s busiest digital asset markets, thanks to active retail investors, a large developer community, and more blockchain use. The country’s crypto market is expected to be worth over $3 billion in 2025 and keep growing in the years ahead.

Coinbase is adding more than just basic buying and selling for Indian users. Retail investors will be able to trade on spot markets, and experienced traders can use perpetual futures contracts. The new Coinbase Advanced platform will also offer TradingView integration, professional tools, and API access.

Coinbase has registered with India’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU-IND), showing it plans to follow local regulations and stay in the market for the long term. The company says it wants to give Indian users the same reliable trading platform that institutions use worldwide.

Coinbase is now live in India with direct INR rails.

Users across India can now seamlessly access global liquidity and institutional-grade execution at the lowest total cost of trading in the market.
