So if you’re experiencing trouble of this sort, use our troubleshooting guidelines below and get the issue resolved. This article is for people having difficulty verifying a payment method using amount verification on coinbase.
If you receive an “incorrect amounts” error on coinbase:
The most common cause of this error is having added the same payment method more than once. A new pair of verification amounts is sent each time the payment method is added. Only the most recent pair of amounts is valid.
If you add, then remove, then add the same payment method during a short time period then you will receive at least 4 credits, and it is possible the credit amounts will appear out of order.
In this situation, you will need to try each possible pair of amounts until one is accepted.
Other possible causes:
– If verifying a card, you may receive a third charge of exactly 1.00. Charges for exactly 1.00 are not used for card verification and can be ignored. These are caused by the card processing network, and are separate from the Coinbase verification amounts.
– Check to make sure your Coinbase profile is set to the correct country. Verification amounts will be sent as your local currency. If you have the wrong country selected, the amounts could be converted and become incorrect.

– Some banks will round up these amounts to the nearest whole number. If this is the case, you will have to contact your bank to find out the exact amounts.
– If you’re trying to enter in the verification amounts using the mobile app but are being told the amounts are incorrect, first double check the amounts, then try entering them in via the website instead.
If you are still not able to find the correct amounts, do well to contact coinbase help center and let them know what the amounts are that you are trying to use.
