Sign in to OANDA

Quick overview

OANDA is a widely used forex broker offering trading, market data, and account management. This guide covers the OANDA login process for web and mobile, two-factor authentication (2FA), common login issues and step-by-step account recovery tips so you can get back to trading quickly and securely.

How to log in (web)

1. Open your browser and go to the official OANDA login page: oanda.com.
2. Click Sign in (top-right) and choose the account type (Live or Demo).
3. Enter your registered email and password, then click Log in.
4. If prompted, complete two-factor authentication (2FA) using your chosen method.

Logging in via mobile

Download the official OANDA app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Tap Sign in, provide your email and password, and follow any 2FA steps. The mobile experience mirrors the web flow and offers biometric options on many devices.

Two-factor authentication (2FA)

2FA strengthens account security by requiring a second verification step. OANDA supports authenticator apps (TOTP) and may support SMS verification in some regions. If you enabled 2FA, keep your recovery codes safe — they’re the fallback if you lose access to your authenticator app.

Troubleshooting common login issues

• Forgot password: Use the Forgot password link on the login page. You’ll receive a password reset link at your registered email. Check spam/junk folders if you don’t see it.
• Account locked: Multiple failed attempts may temporarily lock access. Wait a short period and try the password reset process or contact OANDA support.
• 2FA lost or not working: If you’ve lost your authenticator device, use saved recovery codes. If you don’t have recovery codes, contact OANDA support for verification steps to reset 2FA.
• Browser problems: Clear cache/cookies or try Incognito/Private mode. Disable browser extensions that may block scripts.

Account recovery: step-by-step

If you can’t access your email or the usual recovery methods, prepare to verify identity:

• Gather identification documents (passport or driver’s license).
• Provide account details such as recent transaction IDs or deposit amounts.
• Contact OANDA support via their official support portal and follow the instructed verification process.

Security best practices

• Use a unique, strong password and a reputable password manager.
• Enable 2FA and store recovery codes in a secure place.
• Enable device biometrics where supported (fingerprint/Face ID) for quicker, secure access on mobile.
• Monitor account activity and enable alerts for logins and withdrawals.
