Overview

NDAX (National Digital Asset Exchange) is a Canadian cryptocurrency exchange offering trading, fiat on/off ramps and custodial services. Signing in to your NDAX account is the gateway to trading, deposits, withdrawals and account settings. This article walks you through the login process, how to enable and manage two-factor authentication (2FA), how to handle login problems, and best security practices.

How to Sign In (Step-by-step)

  1. Open your browser and go to the NDAX sign-in page or launch the NDAX mobile app.
  2. Enter the email address associated with your NDAX account.
  3. Type your password. If you use a password manager (recommended), autofill helps reduce typing errors.
  4. If 2FA is enabled, enter the one-time code from your authenticator app or the SMS code, depending on your setup.
  5. Click “Sign In” — you should land on your dashboard. If prompted for additional verification, follow the on-screen instructions.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

NDAX strongly recommends using an authenticator app (e.g., Google Authenticator, Authy) rather than SMS for 2FA. Authenticator apps are less vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks.

Tip: If you rely on a phone authenticator, export or back up your 2FA tokens before switching devices to avoid lockout.

Troubleshooting Common Login Issues

Problems can occur for several reasons. Try these fixes in order:

  1. Incorrect password: Use the “Forgot password” flow to reset your password securely.
  2. 2FA codes failing: Ensure your device time is correct (authenticator apps depend on accurate device clock). If you changed phones without transferring 2FA, use your saved recovery codes.
  3. Blocked IP or geo-restrictions: Disable VPNs/proxies and try from a known network. NDAX enforces regional compliance rules.
  4. Account locked: Follow the on-screen instructions or contact NDAX support with the required identity verification documents.

Account Recovery

If you cannot access your account, use the official account recovery workflow. Expect to provide:

Do not share passwords, 2FA codes, or private keys with anyone claiming to be support. NDAX support will never ask for your password.
