What is Ledger Live Login®?

Ledger Live Login refers to the process of securely accessing your cryptocurrency portfolio through the Ledger Live application or web interface. Whether you're using the desktop app or visiting the official Ledger Live Web portal, logging in properly ensures your assets remain safe, private, and under your control.

From initializing your Ledger hardware wallet to restoring your accounts or simply reviewing balances, this login flow combines user-friendly steps with top-tier security protocols.

Why Secure Login is Crucial

By following Ledger’s official login process and relying only on authentic sources, you minimize risk and maintain full control over your funds.

Step-by-Step Ledger Live Login Process

  1. Install Ledger Live: Download the app from Ledger’s official site.
  2. Open the app or web portal: Launch Ledger Live Desktop or navigate to the official Ledger Live Web URL.
  3. Connect your Ledger hardware wallet: Use USB (or Bluetooth for Nano X) to connect your device.
  4. Enter your PIN on the device: Use the randomized on-screen keypad—never on your computer.
  5. Select or add account(s): Choose the cryptocurrency accounts you want to view or manage.
  6. Verify actions on device: For any transaction, confirm the details physically on your Ledger.
  7. Secure exit: Close Ledger Live when done and disconnect your device if needed.
