Coinbase OUSD integration
Coinbase operates a cryptocurrency exchange and offers business, institutional custody and developer products. Its Open USD asset page identifies the Open Standard token. The US exchange purchase flow is documented; business integrations need product-specific confirmation. [1] [2]
Holding OUSD
Coinbase documents buying and managing Open USD on its US exchange; business holding arrangements need confirmation. [2]
For an application treasury or customer balances, first identify the Coinbase product and account entity. Confirm OUSD holding, deposit and withdrawal support in that account before designing the funding flow. Exchange buying access does not establish Prime or API eligibility. [3] [2]
Creating OUSD wallets
Open Standard lists Coinbase as a wallet integration path but does not identify an OUSD wallet API. [4]
Ask Coinbase which wallet product fits the intended controller and beneficiary. Obtain its OUSD network support and provisioning documentation before creating a funding flow. The native token addresses on Coinbase’s asset page identify OUSD; they are not a product deposit or withdrawal matrix. [4] [1]
Converting OUSD
Coinbase documents a US exchange purchase flow; institutional 1:1 conversion is a separate listed path. [2] [4]
For the documented exchange flow, verify the Coinbase account and add an approved payment method. Open Buy & Sell, choose OpenUSD, enter the amount and review the quote and fees before placing the order. Fees can apply and appear in the preview. [2]
For a business conversion integration, confirm the product, pair, account access and API with Coinbase. The US buying instructions do not establish worldwide availability or a 1:1 conversion API. [4] [2]
Managing OUSD custody
Open Standard lists Coinbase custody; exact OUSD institutional support depends on the chosen account. [4]
If using Prime, inspect asset availability in its authenticated interface or supported-products endpoint; prospective customers can contact Prime about their geography. Confirm OUSD custody and transfer support with the relevant custody entity before depositing. [3]
Prime availability varies by geography and custody entity. A retail OUSD purchase or a generic asset list does not establish institutional custody approval. [3]
