The new feature will be available to Coinbase.com and Coinbase Pro users in 11 additional nations within Southeast Asia and Latin America. These countries include New Zealand, Peru, Mexico, South Korea, Argentina Chile, the Philippines, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, and Colombia.

The exchange’s customers in the aforementioned countries will now be able to trade, send, receive and store digital assets.

Coinbase launched the crypto-to-crypto conversion option last year December.
