❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

We have compiled answers to the most common login and account access questions to help you resolve issues quickly.

I forgot my password or User ID. How do I recover it?

Losing your login credentials is common, but recovering them is easy. On the login page, click the "Forgot your password?" link. You will be prompted to enter the email address associated with your account. Follow the instructions sent to your inbox to reset your password. Remember, passwords are case-sensitive, so ensure you copy them without extra spaces. You can also log in using your email address instead of a User ID if you remember your password but forgot your ID .

My Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) code isn't working. What should I do?

2FA codes are time-sensitive. If you receive an "Invalid authentication code" error, it is usually due to a time mismatch between your device and our servers.

For Android (Google Authenticator): Go to Settings → Time correction for codes → Tap "Sync now".
For iOS (Duo Mobile/Google Authenticator): Go to Settings → General → Date & Time and ensure "Set Automatically" is toggled ON . If problems persist, you may need to re-scan the QR code or contact support .

My account is locked. How do I regain access?

For security reasons, your Bitstamp account may be temporarily locked after multiple failed login attempts or if suspicious activity is detected. In most cases, you can wait for the lockout period to expire (usually a short duration). If the account remains inaccessible, you will need to contact Bitstamp customer support to verify your identity .

How can I spot and avoid scams?

Protecting your account requires vigilance. Be aware of these common tactics:

Educational Scams: Bitstamp does not work with third-party platforms offering to "teach" you how to trade by accessing your account. Never share your screen with anyone claiming to be from Bitstamp .
Recruitment Scams: Bitstamp will never ask for account information or payment as part of a job application. All legitimate job postings are found on apply.workable.com/bitstamp .
Giveaway Scams: Ignore social media posts promising "giveaways" that ask you to send crypto to a wallet address. Bitstamp will never ask for your cryptocurrency for any promotional purpose .
