Lédger® Recover Login - Complete Guide
Ledger Recover is an optional, subscription-based key recovery service designed to provide an additional layer of security for your cryptocurrency assets. It offers a backup solution for your 24-word Secret Recovery Phrase, allowing you to regain access to your funds through identity verification if you ever lose your recovery phrase or Ledger device.
Important: Ledger Recover login is completely separate from your Ledger Live app password or your Ledger device PIN. It is a dedicated login created specifically for managing your Recover subscription and identity verification.
Ledger Recover works by encrypting and splitting your Secret Recovery Phrase into three encrypted fragments (shards) using Shamir Secret Sharing. These fragments are sent to three independent custodians:
Ledger (France)
Coincover (United Kingdom)
EscrowTech (United States)
Your recovery phrase is only accessible when any two of these custodians send their fragments back to your Ledger device, where they are reassembled.
Access to these fragments is secured by identity verification using a government-issued ID (passport or national ID) and facial recognition. This ensures that only you can unlock your backup.
Creating your Ledger Recover login is the first step to subscribing to the service.
A Ledger device (Nano X, Nano S Plus, Flex, Stax, or Gen5). The service is available on desktop and mobile apps for most devices, but Nano S Plus users require a desktop computer.

Your Ledger Recover login is automatically deleted when you cancel your subscription.
Important: Once you cancel your subscription, you cannot reactivate it with the same email address.
After 7 days without payment: You cannot restore your private keys using Ledger Recover.
After 3 months without payment: Your subscription is suspended.
After 9 months of suspension: You have 9 months to contact support and pay a €50 administration fee plus any outstanding balance to reactivate.
Ledger will never ask for your 24-word recovery phrase – beware of phishing attempts.
Only you can access your backup – Ledger and the custodians cannot access your seed phrase fragments without your approval.
The login is separate from your Ledger Live app and device PIN – do not reuse passwords.
Government subpoenas are a consideration – the three custodians operate in different jurisdictions (France, UK, US) with different legal powers.
