This page details everything you need to know about logging into your Uphold account, troubleshooting common issues, and leveraging our security features for peace of mind.

Logging Into Your Uphold Account: A Simple, Secure Process

Accessing your account is straightforward. Follow these steps to sign in from any web browser or via our mobile app.

1. On the Web:

  • Navigate to Uphold.com and click the “Log In” button at the top right of the homepage.

  • Enter the email address associated with your Uphold account.

  • Enter your password.

  • Complete any Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) prompt if enabled (highly recommended).

  • Click “Log In” to access your dashboard.

2. On Mobile (Uphold App):

  • Open the Uphold app on your iOS or Android device.

  • Tap “Log In.”

  • Enter your registered email and password.

  • Approve any 2FA notification from your authenticator app.

  • You will be taken directly to your mobile portfolio view.

Your Security Is Our Priority: Advanced Protection Features

We employ a multi-layered security strategy to safeguard your account. Understanding these features enhances your protection.

  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): This is your account's most critical defense. We strongly recommend enabling 2FA via an app like Google Authenticator or Authy. It adds a unique, time-sensitive code required at each login, ensuring that only you can access your account, even if your password is compromised.

  • Biometric Login (Mobile): For ultimate speed and security on your mobile device, enable Face ID, Touch ID, or fingerprint recognition. This provides a seamless and incredibly secure login method tied directly to you.

  • Secure Session Management: Our systems continuously monitor for suspicious activity. You can view your active login sessions from your account settings and remotely log out of any unfamiliar devices or locations.

  • Encryption & Protocols: All data transmitted during login is protected by bank-level SSL encryption, ensuring your credentials are never exposed.

Troubleshooting Common Login Issues

Can't sign in? Most issues can be resolved quickly with these steps.

  • Forgot Password: Click “Forgot password?” on the login screen. Enter your email, and we’ll send you a secure link to reset your password. Ensure you create a new, strong, and unique password.

  • Incorrect 2FA Codes: If your Two-Factor Authentication codes aren’t working, ensure your device’s time is synchronized correctly. Time drift in authenticator apps is the most common cause. Re-syncing the app usually resolves this.

  • Account Locked: After several failed login attempts, your account may be temporarily locked for security. Wait a short period or use the “Forgot password” flow to reset and regain access.

  • Email Not Recognized: Double-check the email address you’re using. If you believe you have an account but the email isn’t recognized, you may have registered with a different address. Contact Support for assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Uphold Login

1. What should I do if I don’t receive the password reset email?
First, check your spam or junk mail folder. Ensure you’re checking the email inbox for the address exactly associated with your Uphold account. If it’s not there, wait a few minutes and request a new link. Whitelisting emails from @uphold.com can help ensure future delivery. If the issue persists, contact our Support team.

2. Is it safe to log into Uphold on a public computer?
We strongly advise against using public or shared computers to access your financial accounts. If you must, ensure you use a private browsing session, never save your password, completely log out after your session, and clear the browser cache. Always enable 2FA for an essential additional layer of security in such scenarios.

3. I lost my phone with my 2FA app. How do I recover my account?
This is why we provide Backup Codes when you enable 2FA. You should have saved these in a secure place. Use one of these codes to log in and disable 2FA, then re-enable it on your new device. If you don’t have backup codes, you will need to go through our account recovery process by contacting Support, which involves rigorous identity verification for your security.

4. Can I change the email address linked to my Uphold account?
Yes. For security reasons, you cannot change it directly in settings. You must contact our Customer Support team. They will guide you through a verification process to securely update the email address on your account.

5. Why am I being asked for additional verification when I log in?
Uphold uses advanced systems to detect unusual login attempts, such as those from a new device, browser, or location. An extra verification step is a proactive security measure to confirm it’s truly you. This may involve an extra email confirmation or a CAPTCHA. It helps prevent unauthorized access.

6. Does Uphold support password managers?
Absolutely. We encourage the use of reputable password managers (like 1Password, LastPass, or Bitwarden) to generate and store strong, unique passwords for your Uphold account. This is a best practice for digital security and works seamlessly with our web login.
