Base Payment Guide
Follow these setup, fee, speed, and security notes before sending funds.
Wallet setup
Use MetaMask or any EVM-compatible wallet. Add the Base network: RPC URL https://mainnet.base.org, Chain ID 8453, Symbol ETH. Base is built by Coinbase, so the Coinbase Wallet has native support.
Gas fees
Base is an Ethereum Layer 2 with very low fees — typically under $0.10 per transaction. Gas is paid in ETH on Base. You can bridge ETH from Ethereum or withdraw directly from Coinbase to the Base network.
Transaction speed
Base produces blocks every 2 seconds. We require 12 confirmations, which takes approximately 24 seconds. Like Arbitrum, Base is an optimistic rollup that batches transactions to Ethereum.
Security tips
Base is a relatively new network (launched 2023). Use the official Base Bridge at bridge.base.org for bridging. If sending from Coinbase, select the Base network to avoid higher Ethereum mainnet fees.
