KuCoin 2FA & Verification Help

Enable strong authentication and learn verified recovery steps.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

  1. Open your KuCoin account Security settings (use official app/site).
  2. Choose an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy) and scan the provided QR code.
  3. Store backup codes or the secret key in a safe offline location — do not screenshot or store online.
  4. Test the code and confirm 2FA is active for login and withdrawals if available.
If you lose your 2FA device, follow KuCoin's documented recovery process — expect identity verification steps to restore access.
