How to Sign Up for MEXC: Web and App (Email, Phone, Google, Apple, Wallet)

You can sign up for MEXC on the website or in the MEXC App with an email address or mobile number, or with a Google, Apple, Telegram or MetaMask account.

On both the website and the app, your first login counts as your sign-up, and the process ends with a verification code.

This guide covers each method step by step, what to do right after you sign up, and how to fix the most common sign-up errors.

Key Takeaways:

• You can create a MEXC account on the website or in the app with an email, a mobile number, or a Google, Apple, Telegram or MetaMask account.
• Passwords need at least 10 characters, with uppercase and lowercase letters, a number and a symbol.
• A referral code is optional, and you add it during sign-up.
• After signing up, link Google Authenticator, complete Primary KYC and make your first deposit.
• If no verification code arrives, check your spam and trash folders, then request a new code.

What Do You Need to Sign Up for MEXC?

To sign up, you need an email address or mobile number that can receive codes, a password that meets MEXC's rules, and the official MEXC website or app.

MEXC passwords must be at least 10 characters long and include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers and symbols, and the web form allows up to 128 characters.

A referral code is optional, and the MEXC referral guide explains how referrals work.

For a third-party sign-up, you also need a Google, Apple or Telegram account, or the MetaMask wallet installed and logged in on your device.

How to Sign Up on the MEXC Website With Email or Mobile Number

Email or mobile sign-up on the website takes five steps, from the homepage to a 6-digit verification code.

Step 1: Open MEXC and Click Sign Up

Type https://www.mexc.com into your browser and click [Sign Up] on the homepage.

Step 2: Enter Your Email or Mobile Number

Choose Email or Mobile, enter your email address or mobile number, and click [Next].

The page notes that your first login counts as sign-up, so the same form serves new and existing users.

Step 3: Complete the Slider Puzzle

Drag the slider to complete the puzzle, and the page moves to the next step automatically.

Step 4: Set a Password and Agree to the Terms

Enter a password that meets the rules shown next to the field.

If you have a referral code, open Referral Code (Optional) and enter it.

Tick the box to agree to the User Agreement and Privacy Policy, then click [Sign Up].

Step 5: Enter the Verification Code

How to Sign Up on the MEXC Website With a Third-Party Account

On the website, you can also start with a Google, Apple, MetaMask or Telegram account, then create a new MEXC account for it or link it to one you already have.

Each third-party account can be linked to only one MEXC account.

With a MetaMask Wallet

Before you start, install the MetaMask browser extension and log in to it, because MEXC asks the wallet to sign a message.

Step 1: On the MEXC login page, click the MetaMask icon under "or log in with", then click [Sign] in the MetaMask signature request.

Step 2: Click [Sign Up for a New MEXC Account], or [Link to an Existing MEXC Account] if you already have one.

Step 3: Choose Email or Mobile, enter your email and a password, tick the User Agreement and Privacy Policy box, and click [Sign Up].

Step 4: Complete the security check, which in this flow is an "I'm not a robot" box.

Step 5: Enter the 6-digit code sent to your email and click [Confirm].

The slider puzzle and the "I'm not a robot" box are both checks against automated sign-ups, so complete whichever one MEXC shows.

With Google, Apple or Telegram

Step 1: On the MEXC login page, click the Google, Apple or Telegram icon under "or log in with".

Step 2: Approve the login in the window that opens; for Google, choose your account and click [Continue].

Step 3: On the linking page, click [Sign Up for a New MEXC Account] or [Link to an Existing MEXC Account].

Step 4: Complete the security check, enter the email verification code and click [Confirm].

To see which accounts are linked, go to Profile, Security, then Third-Party Account Authorization, as our guide to logging in with a third-party account explains.

How to Sign Up in the MEXC App

What Should You Do After Signing Up for MEXC?

After you sign up, three steps get the account ready to use: link two-factor authentication, complete identity verification, and make your first deposit.

1. Link Google Authenticator

Google Authenticator adds a second code to security checks such as withdrawals, and MEXC's guide to linking Google Authenticator shows the steps.

2. Complete Primary KYC

KYC is MEXC's identity check: Primary KYC takes one ID document and raises the 24-hour crypto withdrawal limit to 80 BTC, and Advanced KYC adds facial recognition and raises it to 200 BTC.

Our guide to whether MEXC requires KYC walks through each level on the web and in the app.

3. Make Your First Deposit

To fund the account, copy your MEXC deposit address for the coin and network you will use, then send the funds from your wallet or another platform.

Our MEXC deposit guide explains networks, confirmations and what to do if a deposit does not arrive.

Why Can't I Sign Up for MEXC? Common Errors and Fixes

Most sign-up problems come from a missing verification code, a failed security check, a password that breaks the rules, or a third-party account that is already linked.

If emails from MEXC never arrive, our guide to why you may not receive MEXC emails covers the usual causes.

MEXC operates only in designated jurisdictions and does not provide services in some countries or regions. Regulatory requirements differ by region, and users are responsible for understanding the rules that apply where they live. Service regions are set out in the Prohibited Jurisdiction clause of the MEXC User Agreement.
