Time-based authenticator apps are resilient compared with SMS codes. Save backup codes securely. If you switch phones, migrate the authenticator before resetting devices to prevent lockouts.
Update OS and browser, disable risky extensions, and use a dedicated profile for trading. Consider a hardware key for an extra protection layer during KuCoin login.
Configure a unique phrase that appears in legitimate emails from the platform. If a message lacks your code, treat it as suspicious and access your account only via your bookmark.
Avoid public Wi-Fi. If necessary, use a trusted VPN and refrain from withdrawals until you’re back on a known network. Log out after each session on shared machines.
Store emergency contacts, backup codes, and identity docs in a secure vault. This preparation shortens recovery time if you ever need to regain access.
Check device time sync, ensure the authenticator is allowed to run in the background, and confirm you’re entering the latest rotating code. If you lost the device, use backup codes or start the official recovery flow.
No. Use the “Forgot password” option on the KuCoin login page, verify via your registered email/phone, and set a new passphrase. Update your password manager afterward.
Look for HTTPS with the correct domain and your anti-phishing code in emails. Never follow links from random messages; open your bookmark directly.
