What is Ledger Login?
Ledger Login provides secure access to your Ledger Live application or online Ledger account. Unlike traditional accounts, Ledger Login relies on your hardware wallet for authentication. Private keys never leave your device, ensuring full security while managing your cryptocurrency portfolio.
Security Tip: Always access Ledger Live or Ledger.com directly via the official website: Ledger.com
Step 1 – Download Ledger Live

Step 2 – Connect Your Ledger Device
- Plug your Ledger hardware wallet into your computer via USB (Nano X also supports Bluetooth for mobile).
- Enter your PIN code directly on the device for security verification.

Ledger Login uses the hardware device as authentication. There is no traditional password; you log in by confirming actions on the Ledger device:

- Follow prompts to pair your device.
- All account actions require confirmation on the device, keeping your private keys secure.
