Step-by-step Kraken login

  1. Open the official site: Go to https://www.kraken.com and click Log In in the top-right corner. Always verify the domain and SSL padlock.
  2. Enter email and password: Input the email associated with your Kraken account and your password. Use a password manager if possible.
  3. Complete 2FA (if enabled): Enter your 2FA code from your authenticator app (TOTP) or universal second factor. If you use an SMS/backup code, apply that only as a fallback.
  4. Review account activity: Once logged in, check recent activity and account settings for any unfamiliar changes.
🔒
Security tip: Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) in Settings → Security. Use an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, or a hardware key) for stronger protection than SMS.
