Why this matters
Signing in to a financial platform is the gateway to managing funds, trading assets, and accessing account settings. Treat your Uphold credentials like keys — keep them private and pair them with additional protections such as two-factor authentication.
Quick sign-in steps
- Open the official sign-in page. Use your email address or username and your password.
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA). Use an authenticator app or approved methods rather than SMS where possible.
- Check device & IP prompts. Review any unfamiliar devices or locations before approving access.
Note: If you cannot sign in, use the official 'Forgot password' or support flow rather than responding to unsolicited messages.
Detailed sign-in guide
1. Visit the official login portal
Always reach the sign-in form via uphold.com or verified support pages — bookmarks and official links reduce the chance of phishing.
2. Enter credentials
Type your email and password carefully. Consider a reputable password manager to generate and store a strong, unique password per service.
3. Approve 2FA
When prompted, approve a code from your authenticator app. If you use hardware security keys or device-based approvals, keep backups in a secure location.
4. Secure session habits
- Sign out on shared or public devices.
- Enable email alerts and device notifications for new sign-ins.
- Regularly review account activity and linked devices.
If you forget your password
Use the official recovery flow
Click Forgot password on the sign-in page and follow the email verification steps. If you suspect unauthorized access, contact official support immediately.
When to contact support
Contact support if you cannot access the recovery email, see suspicious withdrawals, or notice unexpected identity verification requests.
Security best practices
Protect your account
- Use a unique password and a password manager.
- Enable 2FA and prefer authenticator apps or hardware keys.
