I am trying to buy on Coinbase Pro and it keeps saying "insufficient funds"?

My bank account is linked and I can sell but cannot buy?

Any ideas...

Does your bank have a block on crypto related transactions?

If you have enough funds in your bank, and you are sure that your bank account is linked properly (being able to withdraw, I think chances are that it is), and it still doesn't work, it's probably something on the bank's side.

Don't just contact Coinbase support only - also contact whatever bank you are with. Make sure you are not too explicit about the transaction being crypto related though, since you could alert them to something that they didn't even know of before and flag your account subsequently.

Are you getting 'insufficient funds' error despite having enough funds in your coinbase pro account @op?

In some cases, it's an error. I faced it as well and the only thing that works was to leave 1 satoshi. Their support is kind of slow... Roll Eyes
Also, I never send to any wallet of mine directly from CoinbasePro (since it's free to move your funds to Coinbase and then decide what you want), so maybe this error appears when you try to send between your Coinbase linked accounts.

Deposits thru linked bank accounts should be available for trade instantly but is not available for withdrawal until funds are cleared.

I understand that they hold your funds from your bank transfer for some days. You may be able to see the funds in your account, but it hasn't been cleared yet. How long ago did you set up your account?

As far as I know, you can't buy instantly on CoinbasePro. You need to transfer your fiat funds and then start trading.
