Create and Manage Your Ledger Account

What is a Ledger Account?

A Ledger account is your personal access point to the world of cryptocurrency management through Ledger’s hardware wallet system. Instead of traditional login methods, your account is connected to a physical device — the Ledger Nano S Plus or Nano X — and managed through the secure Ledger Live application.

Why You Need a Ledger Account

Whether you're holding Bitcoin, Ethereum, or thousands of other tokens, a Ledger account ensures your assets are stored in the most secure way possible — offline. With rising threats of hacks, scams, and digital theft, Ledger offers unmatched protection for your crypto portfolio.

How to Set Up a Ledger Account

Follow these easy steps to get started:

Purchase a Ledger device from the official Ledger website.
Download and install the Ledger Live app on your desktop or mobile device.
Connect your Ledger device and choose “Set up as new device.”
Create a PIN code and securely write down the 24-word recovery phrase.
Open Ledger Live and add your cryptocurrency accounts.

Once set up, your Ledger account gives you full control of your digital assets through a simple and safe user interface.

Security Tips for Your Ledger Account

Your Ledger account is only as secure as you make it. Always follow these precautions:

Store your recovery phrase in a secure, offline location.
Never share your 24-word phrase with anyone — even Ledger support.
Only install apps and updates through the official Ledger Live app.
Double-check URLs and avoid phishing attempts.

Creating a Ledger account is the first step toward securing your cryptocurrency journey. It puts you in control, protects your assets, and gives you access to the world of decentralized finance with confidence.
