- Dec 18, 2021 · 3 years agoOne possible solution is to check your payment method. Make sure you have a valid payment method linked to your Coinbase account. If your payment method is expired or has insufficient funds, Coinbase may not allow you to make purchases. Update your payment method or add a new one to see if that resolves the issue.
- Dec 18, 2021 · 3 years agoAnother potential fix is to verify your identity on Coinbase. Sometimes, Coinbase requires users to complete the identity verification process before they can make purchases. Check if there are any pending identity verification steps on your account and complete them if necessary.
