1. How to create a MEXC login account
- Open the official site: go to mexc.com and click Sign Up. Confirm the HTTPS lock and domain to avoid phishing. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
- Register with email or phone: provide a verified email or mobile, set a long, unique password (12+ chars) and complete the email/SMS verification code flow. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
- First login: after verification, sign in via mexc.com/login or use the app's QR-scan login for extra convenience. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
Pro tip: use a password manager and avoid reusing passwords across exchanges or web services.
2. MEXC KYC verification — what to expect
Completing MEXC KYC verification unlocks higher withdrawal limits and fiat rails. MEXC supports tiered verification (Primary/Advanced) — the web and mobile flows are clearly documented on the official site. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
- Primary KYC: submit ID images and basic info (fast automated checks).
- Advanced KYC: facial recognition and document proof for larger limits and fiat services.
- Tip: submit clear, well-lit photos and ensure names match exactly to speed approval.
3. MEXC app download & mobile login
Download the official MEXC™ app from the MEXC download hub or the app stores. The site offers iOS, Android and desktop installers — always use the official links to avoid fake APKs. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
- Install from Google Play / Apple App Store or use the QR code from mexc.com/download.
- Use in-app QR login to authenticate web sessions quickly and securely. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
- Enable biometric unlock (Face ID / fingerprint) for faster mobile access.
4. Harden your MEXC login — quick checklist
- Enable MEXC two-factor authentication (2FA): use Google Authenticator or Authy (avoid SMS where possible).
- Set a withdrawal password/PIN: required for transfers and provides an additional barrier.
- Whitelist withdrawal addresses: restrict withdrawals to pre-approved wallets.
- Anti-phishing code: set a code displayed in every official email to detect impersonators.
- Device & session review: revoke unknown sessions and monitor recent login activity. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
Store 2FA backup codes offline (paper or hardware vault) and never share your password or 2FA codes with anyone.
5. After login — deposit & start trading (beginner tips)
Once your MEXC login is secured and KYC is complete, fund your account and start with basic spot trades:
- Use small trade sizes while you learn order types (limit vs market).
- Enable price alerts and practice using limit orders to avoid slippage during volatility.
- Keep a portion of funds in cold storage for long-term holdings; use the exchange for active trading only.
