LEDGER LOGIN BASICS

Ledger Live login is different from a typical website login.

Many online services rely on an email address and password. Ledger Live historically used a different approach, with core app data stored locally rather than requiring a conventional account login. Ledger's current product is called Ledger Wallet, formerly Ledger Live, and the experience continues to focus on the connection between the software and a Ledger signer.

Looking for Ledger login?

Start by checking that you are using a genuine Ledger resource. Do not enter your recovery phrase or device PIN into a webpage claiming to provide a Ledger login.

Verify the website address first

Use trusted Ledger software

Confirm actions on your device

Important security reminder

Ledger does not need your Secret Recovery Phrase to provide ordinary wallet access. If a website, message, popup, or person asks for your recovery phrase, stop immediately and verify the source.

GET STARTED

A safer route from Ledger Start to your wallet.

Begin with ledger.com/start

Ledger Start is designed to help users begin the hardware wallet setup process. Verify the domain carefully before downloading any software.

Install the right application

Ledger Live Desktop was the familiar desktop application name. Ledger now uses Ledger Wallet as the broader product name for its desktop and mobile experience.

Connect your Ledger device

Use your compatible Ledger signer with the application and carefully follow the setup instructions displayed by the software and hardware.

```

Follow the right steps before managing assets.

Check the Ledger website

Before using Ledger Live, Ledger Start, or downloading desktop software, carefully inspect the domain name. Small spelling changes can indicate a phishing website.

Open the genuine desktop application

If you use Ledger Live Desktop or the current Ledger Wallet desktop experience, download the application through Ledger's trusted channels rather than an unexpected third-party link.

Connect your hardware wallet

Your Ledger signer provides the hardware layer used to authorize transactions. Follow the instructions on the application and verify important information directly on the device.

Review every transaction

Before approving an operation, compare the transaction information shown by your computer with the information displayed on your Ledger device.

SECURITY FIRST

Never trade convenience for basic security.

A genuine Ledger login experience should never require you to reveal secrets that belong only to you. Keep your recovery phrase and PIN private and be cautious with unexpected messages or websites.

Protect your recovery phrase

Never type your recovery phrase into a website, online form, chat, or application unless you are following an appropriate official recovery procedure on your Ledger device.

Keep your PIN private

Your Ledger device PIN should remain confidential. Do not send it to another person or enter it into a website.

Verify what you sign

Carefully check addresses, amounts, fees, and other transaction information on your Ledger device before confirming.

FAQ

Common Ledger login questions.

How do I perform a Ledger Live login?

Ledger Live historically did not work like a typical website that requires an email-and-password login for the core application. Depending on the current Ledger Wallet features you use, authentication and device authorization can work differently.

Is Ledger Live still available?

Ledger has transitioned the product name from Ledger Live to Ledger Wallet. Existing Ledger Live references and resources may still appear while the newer Ledger Wallet branding is used across current product materials.

Where should I start my Ledger setup?

Ledger's current setup page is available through ledger.com/start. Always check the domain carefully before downloading software or entering any information.

Does Ledger login require my recovery phrase?

You should never disclose your recovery phrase to a website, support agent, or person claiming to help with a Ledger login. Treat such requests as a major warning sign.

Start with verification.

Whether you call it Ledger Live, Ledger Live Desktop, Ledger Start, or Ledger Wallet, the safest habit is simple: verify the source and protect your private information.
