Quick overview — what MEXC™ offers

MEXC™ (Registered®) is a global cryptocurrency exchange offering spot, margin, futures, staking, and a variety of trading pairs across major and emerging tokens. It focuses on accessibility for beginners while providing advanced features for experienced traders.

1. Create your MEXC™ account

Start at the official site — mexc.com. Always confirm the HTTPS lock and bookmark the page to avoid phishing sites.

  • Click Sign Up and choose email or mobile registration.
  • Enter your email/phone, create a robust password (12+ characters with mixed types), and accept terms.
  • Verify via the code sent to your email or SMS to activate your MEXC™ login.

Pro tip: Use a password manager to generate and store a unique password just for MEXC™.

2. Complete MEXC KYC verification

KYC enhances account limits and access to fiat gateways and some products.

  • Go to Profile → Identity Verification after login.
  • Upload government-issued ID (passport, driver’s license, or national ID) and follow selfie or video steps if prompted.
  • Double-check uploaded images for clarity to speed approval.

Approved verification unlocks higher withdrawal limits and reduces friction for fiat on-ramps.

3. MEXC app download & mobile setup

Trade on the go with the official MEXC mobile app. To avoid counterfeit apps, install from the official store links on the MEXC site.

  • Android: Use Google Play Store link provided on MEXC's website.
  • iOS: Use the Apple App Store link shown on the official site.
  • Enable biometric login (fingerprint/Face ID) for faster, secure access.

4. Security settings — essentials to protect your MEXC™ login

After creating your account, immediately harden it with these best practices.

  • Enable MEXC two-factor authentication (2FA): Use an authenticator app (Google Authenticator or Authy) rather than SMS for stronger protection.
  • Set a withdrawal password/PIN: Adds an extra layer for outgoing transfers.
  • Anti-phishing code: Set a phrase that appears in official emails — it helps identify fake messages.
  • Withdrawal whitelist: Restrict withdrawals to pre-approved addresses only.
  • Device management: Regularly review active sessions and revoke unknown devices.

Security note: MEXC will never ask for your password or 2FA code by email or chat. Treat recovery codes as highly sensitive and store them offline.

5. Deposit, trade, and beginner-friendly tips

Once verified and secured, deposit crypto (or use supported fiat rails) and explore MEXC’s trading products.

  • Deposit: Wallet → Deposit → choose coin and network; copy the address carefully.
  • Start small: Begin with low-value trades in major pairs like BTC/USDT or ETH/USDT to learn order types.
  • Use limit orders: They give you more control than market orders in volatile markets.
  • Explore advanced features only after understanding risks (margin, futures, lending).

MEXC also offers staking and savings products for passive income — read the product terms before locking funds.
