This page explains how to perform a safe kraken login, common login problems and how to fix them, plus best practices to protect your crypto account.

How to do a Kraken login (step-by-step)

  1. 1
    Visit the official Kraken website. Type kraken.com directly in the address bar or use a trusted bookmark — never click suspicious links.
  2. 2
    Click "Log In" and enter your credentials. Use your account email/username and password. The term kraken login refers to this sign-in process.
  3. 3
    Complete 2FA. If you have two-factor authentication enabled (recommended), enter the code from your authenticator app or hardware key.
  4. 4
    Confirm and review. Check account notifications for any unusual activity after logging in.

Security tips for a safe Kraken login

  • Use a strong, unique password. Combine length and unpredictability; avoid reusing passwords across sites.
  • Enable two-factor authentication (2FA). Authenticator apps (TOTP) or hardware keys are preferred over SMS when possible.
  • Beware of phishing. Always check the URL is the official domain before entering credentials.
  • Keep software updated. Use a secure browser and keep your OS and antivirus updated.
  • Use a hardware wallet for large holdings. Keep long-term funds in cold storage where possible.

Troubleshooting common Kraken login problems

No email received for password reset? Check spam folders and ensure your account email is correct. If problems persist, contact Kraken support through official channels.
2FA won't accept codes? Ensure your phone time is set to automatic / network time. For authenticator apps, resync or re-register 2FA from your account security page.
Account locked? Follow the on-screen instructions and verify your identity via Kraken support. Avoid multiple failed attempts in a short time.
