Sign in to your Kraken account
Enter your email and password, then complete your second factor to access trading, deposits, and withdrawals.
Why Kraken’s sign-in is secure
- Strong password hashing and rate limiting to protect against credential stuffing.
- Optional 2FA (TOTP) and hardware security keys (WebAuthn) for phishing-resistant access.
- Session management and device trust options so you can revoke access quickly from your account dashboard.
Important: Kraken support will never ask for your password, 2FA code, or API secret. If prompted for these outside official support channels, it’s a scam.
Quick security tips
Use a hardware key
Register a FIDO2 / WebAuthn key (e.g., YubiKey) for the most secure, phishing-resistant login.
Enable 2FA
Use an authenticator app (TOTP) as a second factor. Keep backup recovery codes stored offline.
FAQ
- My login failed — what next?
- Check email and password, ensure your account is verified, and review recent security emails. Use "Forgot password?" if needed. If you suspect an attack, contact Support immediately.
- Can I disable remembered devices?
- Yes — go to Security → Sessions in your Kraken account and revoke any unrecognized or stale sessions.
- How do I recover access if I lose 2FA?
- Use your saved recovery codes or a registered security key. If both are lost, follow Kraken’s account recovery flow — expect identity verification.
