Welcome back — quick, secure sign-in
This short presentation explains best practices for signing in, how Uphold keeps your account safe, and practical tips for recovering access if you forget credentials. The content below uses semantic headings (H1–H5) so it’s ready for printing, copying into slides, or using as a guide for documentation.
Why security matters
When accessing financial accounts, strong authentication reduces the risk of unauthorized transactions and identity theft. Uphold uses multiple layers of protection — encrypted transport, optional two-factor authentication (2FA), and device recognition. Never share passwords or verification codes with anyone claiming to be support.
Step-by-step login flow
1. Navigate to the official sign-in address in your browser — beware of lookalike pages.
2. Enter your registered email or username.
3. Provide your password. If 2FA is enabled, you’ll be prompted for the second factor (authenticator app code, hardware key, or SMS as configured).
4. Confirm any device or location prompts to register trusted devices for faster future sign-ins.
When you forget your password
Click the "Forgot password" link on the sign-in page. You’ll receive an email with a secure reset link. If you don’t receive the email, check spam folders and allow a few minutes for delivery. Do not use public Wi‑Fi for password resets unless you're using a reputable VPN.
Account recovery tips
Have a verified phone number and recovery email on file. Save your 2FA recovery codes in a password manager or a physical secure place. If you’re locked out, follow the official recovery process — expect identity verification steps for account protection.
Design and accessibility notes
Headings H1–H5 are used here to create a clear reading order. Use sufficient color contrast, keyboard-focusable controls, and descriptive link text so assistive technologies can navigate the page. The CSS in this sample demonstrates a full-color, high-contrast visual theme while keeping content readable.
Use in office or slide decks
Copy sections into 10 slides: title, overview, security, login flow, 2FA, forgot password, recovery, device management, privacy tips, and contact/support. Each slide should be short, use bullet points, and include a single call-to-action (e.g., "Enable 2FA now").
Printable summary
Keep a one-page printout with recovery steps and support contacts in a safe place. Remove sensitive codes; list only non-sensitive instructions and official support links.
