Protect your Uphold account and digital assets with industry-leading security measures and best practices.
Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring a second verification method beyond your password.
Use at least 12 characters with a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Avoid common words or personal information.
Never reuse passwords across different websites. If one site is compromised, all accounts with the same password are at risk.
Use a reputable password manager like 1Password, LastPass, or Bitwarden to securely store and generate strong passwords.
Always verify the URL before entering login credentials. Uphold will never ask for your password via email. Look for https:// and the lock icon in your browser.
Regularly update your operating system, browser, and Uphold mobile app to ensure you have the latest security patches.
Avoid logging into your Uphold account on public Wi-Fi. Use a VPN when accessing your account from unfamiliar networks.
Regularly review your account activity and transaction history. Report any suspicious activity to Uphold support immediately.
Your email account is the key to password resets. Enable 2FA on your email and use a strong, unique password.
