Input your registered email address or phone number and your password. MEXC also supports login via QR code scan on mobile devices for added convenience.

Essential Security Measures
Protecting your MEXC account requires proactive security measures. Implement these features to safeguard your assets:
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Enable 2FA in your account security settings. We recommend using Google Authenticator or Authy rather than SMS-based 2FA for enhanced security.
Device Management
Regularly review and manage devices that have access to your account. Remove any unrecognized or old devices from your authorized list.
Withdrawal Whitelist
Activate the withdrawal address whitelist to restrict fund transfers only to pre-approved wallet addresses, preventing unauthorized withdrawals.
Anti-Phishing Code
Set up a unique anti-phishing code that will appear in all legitimate emails from MEXC, helping you identify phishing attempts.
Pro Security Tip: Use a unique, strong password for your MEXC account that you don't use anywhere else. Consider using a password manager to generate and store complex passwords securely.
Troubleshooting Login Issues
If you're experiencing problems accessing your MEXC account, here are solutions to common login issues:
Forgotten Password
Click the "Forgot Password" link on the login page and follow the instructions sent to your registered email to reset your password securely.
2FA Problems
If you've lost access to your 2FA device, use your backup codes or contact MEXC support for assistance with account recovery.
Account Locked
Multiple failed login attempts may temporarily lock your account for security reasons. Wait for the lock period to expire or contact support if the issue persists.
Browser Issues
Clear your browser cache and cookies, or try accessing your account from a different browser or device to isolate the problem.
Important: If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, immediately change your password, review your security settings, and contact MEXC support.
Frequently Asked Questions

First, ensure your authenticator app is synchronized with the correct time. If you're still not receiving codes, use your backup codes to login and then reset your 2FA settings. If you've lost both your authenticator and backup codes, you'll need to contact MEXC support for account recovery.
