When Do You Need Uphold Account Recovery?

  • Lost or reset phone used for 2FA
  • Incorrect login attempts causing account lock
  • Suspicious activity triggering security restrictions
  • Unable to receive verification codes

Start Account Recovery from the Official Site

To avoid scams or phishing attempts, always begin recovery from Uphold’s official login page.

Official Uphold login page: 👉 https://wallet.uphold.com/login

From here, you can initiate the correct recovery option based on your issue.

Step-by-Step: Restore Uphold Account Access

Step 1: Click “Forgot Your Password?”

On the login page, select “Forgot your password?” below the sign-in form.

You’ll be redirected to the password recovery process.

Step 2: Enter Your Registered Email

Enter the email address associated with your Uphold account. Uphold will send a secure password reset link to that email.

⚠️ If you don’t see the email, check spam or junk folders.

Step 3: Reset Your Password

Open the email and follow the reset link. Create a strong, unique password that you haven’t used elsewhere.

Once completed, return to the login page and sign in again.

Recovering Access If You Lost 2FA

If you no longer have access to your 2FA device, additional verification is required.

Step 1: Attempt Login Normally

Enter your email and password at: 👉 https://wallet.uphold.com/login

When prompted for 2FA, select the option indicating you can’t access your authenticator.

Step 2: Follow Identity Verification Instructions

Uphold may request identity confirmation to ensure account ownership. This process helps protect users from unauthorized access.

Step 3: Wait for Confirmation

Once verification is completed, Uphold will provide instructions to restore account access or re-enable 2FA.

⏳ Recovery times vary depending on verification requirements.

What If Your Account Is Temporarily Locked?

Accounts may be temporarily locked after multiple failed login attempts.

In most cases:

  • Wait 15–30 minutes before trying again
  • Ensure correct email and password
  • Avoid repeated login attempts

If the lock persists, use the password recovery process or contact official support.
