Trading Password

Security is one of KuCoin's top concerns. Since there are a lot of transactions taking place on the platform every day, KuCoin has introduced a trading password feature to ensure better account and assets protection.

A trading password is a 6-digit number you set, and it is used for withdrawal, API verification, and trading. This article shows you the steps for how to set, change, or reset a KuCoin trading password.

Tips:

  • The trading password accepts numbers only. Please do not input any letter or character.
