Coinbase has announced a major partnership with JPMorgan Chase, the largest U.S. bank, aimed at expanding access to cryptocurrencies for over 80 million Chase customers.
The collaboration introduces three new integration pathways between traditional banking and the crypto ecosystem, marking a significant step toward mainstream adoption.
Starting this fall, Chase credit card holders will be able to fund their Coinbase accounts directly using their Chase cards. This seamless integration removes a common friction point for new users and aligns with Coinbase’s mission to make crypto more accessible to the masses.
In early 2026, Chase will also allow customers to redeem Chase Ultimate Rewards Points for USDC, the stablecoin issued by Circle and widely used on the Base Layer 2 network developed by Coinbase. This marks the first time a major credit card rewards program will offer direct conversion to crypto, signaling a shift in how loyalty points are viewed in the evolving digital economy.
Finally, in 2026, users will gain the ability to link their Chase bank accounts directly to Coinbase, offering another fast and secure on-ramp into digital assets. This complements Coinbase’s existing suite of integrations and accelerates onboarding for new and experienced users alike.
Coinbase stated the partnership is part of its broader vision to serve as the bridge between traditional finance and the crypto economy, lowering entry barriers and empowering millions with financial freedom through digital assets.
This strategic alliance positions both firms at the forefront of financial innovation—and may spark similar moves across the banking sector.
