What Happens If I Lose My Ledger?

Recovery options if you lose your device

Device Recovery

If you lose your Ledger device, your accounts and credentials are safe as long as you have your recovery phrase.

Don't Panic

Your accounts are secure. Without your PIN and recovery phrase, no one can access your accounts from the lost device.

Use Your Recovery Phrase

Get a new Ledger device and restore it using your 24-word recovery phrase. All accounts will be restored.

If Recovery Phrase Is Lost

If both the device and recovery phrase are lost, accounts cannot be recovered. This is why secure backup is critical.

Report the Loss

Report a lost device to Ledger support to help track and prevent unauthorized use.
