Welcome to Ledger Live’s Secure Account Portal

At Ledger Live, your digital safety comes first. We design every feature with privacy and protection in mind. Whether you’re registering for a new account or signing in to manage your digital assets, our goal is to make your experience secure, fast, and seamless. Understanding how to register, log in, and safeguard your data ensures that you remain in control of your crypto journey.

Account Registration Made Simple

1. Creating Your Account

To register, open the official Ledger Live application or web interface. Click on “Create Account” and fill in your details — such as your name, verified email, and a strong password. We recommend avoiding common passwords or information that could be guessed easily. Once you complete the form, check your inbox for a confirmation email. Click the link provided to activate your Ledger Live account securely.

2. Setting Up a Strong Password

A strong password is your first defense against unauthorized access. Combine uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using personal details like birthdays or simple patterns. A password manager can help you create and store complex passwords safely.

Pro Tip:

After account creation, enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). This extra layer of security means no one can log in without access to both your password and your second device.

Logging In Securely

1. Safe Access Every Time

When logging in, ensure you’re using the official Ledger Live app or website. Look for the “https://” in the URL and confirm the security padlock symbol. Enter your registered email and password carefully, and if prompted, verify your identity with 2FA. These simple steps prevent phishing and unauthorized access attempts.

2. Recovering Lost Credentials

If you forget your password, click “Forgot Password?” on the login screen. A password reset link will be emailed to your registered address. Never share this link with anyone — Ledger will never request it from you. If you lose access to your email, contact official support immediately using verified channels.

Important Reminder:

Keep your 24-word recovery phrase in a secure offline location. It is your ultimate backup for your crypto wallet. Never share or store it digitally, as this phrase can give full control over your funds.

Strengthening Account Security

1. Avoiding Phishing and Scams

Phishing is a common threat where attackers imitate Ledger’s website or emails to steal information. Always verify the sender and never click unknown links. Bookmark the official Ledger website and use that link exclusively for access.

2. Keeping Software Updated

Regular updates fix security vulnerabilities and enhance protection. Always use the latest version of the Ledger Live app and firmware for your hardware wallet. Enable automatic updates where possible to ensure ongoing protection.

Final Advice:

Security is an ongoing practice. Combine Ledger’s robust tools with mindful digital habits. Log out after every session, use trusted networks, and review your account activity regularly. A few proactive steps today can prevent major issues tomorrow.
