A clear, step-by-step guide to logging in, staying secure, and getting started with Robinhood’s platform.
Robinhood makes investing accessible through a clean web interface and mobile apps. Whether you’re logging in to check balances, execute trades, or learn, secure access is the first step. This presentation walks you through login basics, account setup, security measures, troubleshooting tips, and official resources—so you can access your trading account safely and confidently.
Tip: Save the official login URL as a bookmark. Phishing sites often mimic Robinhood’s look — always check the domain before entering credentials.
Navigate to the official login page (use the link above or type robinhood.com directly). Avoid clicking login links from untrusted emails or messages.
Input the email or phone number registered to your account and your password. Use the “show password” toggle only on devices you trust.
If you have 2FA enabled (highly recommended), you’ll be prompted for a code from SMS or an authenticator app. Enter the code to complete login.
When logging in from a new device, Robinhood may ask you to confirm the device via email. Approve only requests you initiated.
Signing up requires your full name, date of birth, social security number (for U.S. accounts), residential address, and a few identity verification steps. Follow the on-screen instructions at the official signup page and keep personal documents ready for expedited verification.
Use the “Forgot password?” link on the login page to reset via email. If you don’t receive reset instructions, check spam folders or contact support through the Help Center link above.
If you lose access to your authenticator app or phone number, follow Robinhood’s account recovery flow in the Help Center. Be prepared to verify identity with requested documents.
Once logged in, explore Robinhood Learn for educational material, check the System Status page before trading if markets behave oddly, and keep your software (OS and Robinhood app) updated. Secure access is an ongoing habit—regularly review security settings and update your recovery methods.
