Overview
Bybit is a cryptocurrency derivatives and spot exchange. To access trading, balances, and account settings you must sign in using your registered email, phone number, or third-party OAuth (Google/Apple). This guide explains the standard login workflow and covers security and recovery best practices.
How to Sign In (Step-by-step)
- Open the official Bybit login page:
https://www.bybit.com/loginor launch the Bybit mobile app. - Choose your sign-in method: Email, Phone, or a supported third-party provider (e.g., Google / Apple).
- Enter your credentials (email/phone and password) and click Sign In.
- If Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is enabled, enter the 6-digit code from your authenticator app or SMS when prompted.
- Complete any additional verification such as CAPTCHA or device verification. You will then be taken to your dashboard.
Tip: Use a password manager to store complex passwords and enable biometric unlock on mobile for convenience.
Troubleshooting Common Login Issues
- Forgot password: Use the Forgot Password link on the login page to request a reset link sent to your registered email or phone.
- 2FA not working: Ensure your authenticator clock is synchronized. If you lost your device, follow Bybit's account recovery process (see next section).
- Unable to receive SMS: Check network coverage, confirm the correct phone number, and check for SMS-blocking settings with your carrier.
- Login blocked or suspicious activity: Check your email for alerts from Bybit and follow instructions to verify your identity.
Account Recovery & 2FA Reset
If you cannot access your account because you lost access to your 2FA or email, start the account recovery flow on Bybit's website. Typical steps include:
- Click Forgot Password or Can't access 2FA? on the sign-in page.
- Provide your registered email or phone and complete identity verification — you may need to upload ID documents and a selfie.
- Wait for Bybit support to review your submission. Response times vary.
Important: Protect the recovery emails and avoid sharing verification images on public channels.
Security Best Practices
- Enable 2FA (use an authenticator app rather than SMS when possible).
- Use a long, unique password per service and store it in a password manager.
- Enable withdrawal whitelist and email confirmations for withdrawals where available.
