Create a strong, unique password

Use a password that belongs to your Deriv account alone. Follow these steps to make it harder for someone else to gain access to your account.

Before you start

Make sure you can access your Deriv account. You may also want to use a trusted password manager.

Strengthen your password in 3 steps

If you use the same password across different accounts, a breach on one service could put your other accounts at risk. Start by giving your Deriv account a password of its own.

1.Create a unique password

Go for length. A phrase of several random words is easier to remember and harder to guess than a short, complicated one. Avoid names, birthdays and anything you’ve used before, and use a different password for your MT5 account too. A password manager can create one for you.

2.Change it in your Deriv account settings

Type home.deriv.com into your browser, log in, and change your password in your account settings.

3.Store it safely

Don’t share your password with anyone or send it in a message. Consider using a trusted password manager to store it securely, and avoid saving it on shared devices.

Think your password has been exposed?

Change it on Deriv straight away, then on any other site where you’ve used it. If you notice activity on your account that you don’t recognise, contact us immediately.
