Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Unable To Receive SMS Verification Code on MEXC

If you are unable to receive the SMS verification code on your mobile phone, it may be due to the reasons listed below. Please follow the corresponding instructions and try to obtain the verification code again.

Reason 1: SMS services for mobile numbers cannot be provided as MEXC does not offer service in your country or region.

Reason 2: If you have installed security software on your mobile phone, it is possible the software has intercepted and blocked the SMS.
  • Solution: Open your mobile security software and temporarily disable blocking, then try to obtain the verification code again.

Reason 3: Problems with your mobile service provider, i.e. SMS gateway congestion or other abnormalities.
  • Solution: When your mobile provider’s SMS gateway is congested or experiencing abnormalities, it can cause delays or loss of sent messages. Contact your mobile service provider to verify the situation or try again later to obtain the verification code.

Reason 4: Too many SMS verification codes were requested too quickly.
  • Solution: Clicking the button to send the SMS verification code too many times in rapid succession may affect your ability to receive the verification code. Please wait for a while and try again later.

Reason 5: Poor or no signal at your current location.
  • Solution: If you are unable to receive SMS or experiencing delays in receiving SMS, it is likely due to poor or no signal. Try again in a location with better signal strength.

Other issues:
Disconnected mobile service due to lack of payment, full phone storage, SMS verification being marked as spam, and other situations can also prevent you from receiving SMS verification codes.

Note:
If you are still unable to receive SMS verification codes after trying the above solutions, it’s possible that your have blacklisted the SMS sender. In this case, contact online customer service for assistance.

What to do if you are not receiving the email from MEXC?

If you have not received the email, please try the following methods:
  1. Ensure you have entered the correct email address when signing up;
  2. Check your spam folder or other folders;
  3. Check if emails are sending and being received properly on the email client’s end;
  4. Try using an email from a mainstream provider such as Gmail and Outlook;
  5. Check your inbox again later, as there could be a network delay. The verification code is valid for 15 minutes;
  6. If you are still not receiving the email, it might have been blocked. You will be required to manually whitelist the MEXC email domain before trying to receive the email again.

Please whitelist the following senders (email domain whitelist):

Whitelist for domain name:
  • mexc.link
  • mexc.sg
  • mexc.com

Whitelist for email address: Note: Once the whitelist settings have been done, please wait for 10 minutes before trying to receive the email verification code, as it may take some time for the whitelist to take effect for certain email service providers.

How To Enhance MEXC Account Security

1. Password Settings: Please set a complex and unique password. For security purposes, make sure to use a password with at least 10 characters, including at least one uppercase and lowercase letter, one number, and one special symbol. Avoid using obvious patterns or information that is easily accessible to others (e.g. your name, email address, birthday, mobile number, etc.).

  • Password formats we do not recommend: lihua, 123456, 123456abc, test123, abc123
  • Recommended password formats: Q@ng3532!, iehig4g@#1, QQWwfe@242!

2. Changing Passwords: We recommend that you change your password regularly to enhance the security of your account. It is best to change your password every three months and use a completely different password each time. For more secure and convenient password management, we recommend you to use a password manager such as "1Password" or "LastPass".

  • In addition, please keep your passwords strictly confidential and do not disclose them to others. MEXC staff will never ask for your password under any circumstances.

3. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Linking Google Authenticator: Google Authenticator is a dynamic password tool launched by Google. You are required to use your mobile phone to scan the barcode provided by MEXC or enter the key. Once added, a valid 6-digit authentication code will be generated on the authenticator every 30 seconds. Upon successful linking, you need to enter or paste the 6-digit authentication code displayed on Google Authenticator every time you log in to MEXC.

Linking MEXC Authenticator: You can download and use MEXC Authenticator on App Store or Google Play to enhance the security of your account.

4. Beware of Phishing
Please be vigilant of phishing emails pretending to be from MEXC, and always ensure that the link is the official MEXC website link before logging into your MEXC account. MEXC staff will never ask you for your password, SMS or email verification codes, or Google Authenticator codes.

What is KYC MEXC?

KYC stands for Know Your Customer, emphasizing a thorough understanding of customers, including the verification of their real names.


Why is KYC important?

  1. KYC serves to fortify the security of your assets.
  2. Different levels of KYC can unlock varying trading permissions and access to financial activities.
  3. Completing KYC is essential to elevate the single transaction limit for both buying and withdrawing funds.
  4. Fulfilling KYC requirements can amplify the benefits derived from futures bonuses.


MEXC KYC Classifications Differences

MEXC employs two KYC types: Primary and Advanced.

  • For primary KYC, basic personal information is mandatory. Successful completion of primary KYC results in an increased 24-hour withdrawal limit, reaching up to 80 BTC, with restricted access to OTC transactions (P2P Trading in KYC-supported regions).
  • Advanced KYC necessitates basic personal information and facial recognition authentication. Accomplishing advanced KYC leads to an elevated 24-hour withdrawal limit of up to 200 BTC, providing unrestricted access to OTC transactions (P2P Trading in KYC-supported regions), Global Bank Transfer, and Debit/Credit Card transactions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Unable to upload photo during KYC Verification

If you encounter difficulties uploading photos or receive an error message during your KYC process, please consider the following verification points:
  1. Ensure the image format is either JPG, JPEG, or PNG.
  2. Confirm that the image size is below 5 MB.
  3. Use a valid and original ID, such as a personal ID, driver’s license, or passport.
  4. Your valid ID must belong to a citizen of a country that allows unrestricted trading, as outlined in "II. Know-Your-Customer and Anti-Money-Laundering Policy" - "Trade Supervision" in the MEXC User Agreement.
  5. If your submission meets all the above criteria but KYC verification remains incomplete, it might be due to a temporary network issue. Please follow these steps for resolution:
  • Wait for some time before resubmitting the application.
  • Clear the cache in your browser and terminal.
  • Submit the application through the website or app.
  • Try using different browsers for the submission.
  • Ensure your app is updated to the latest version.
If the issue persists after troubleshooting, kindly take a screenshot of the KYC interface error message and send it to our Customer Service for verification. We will address the matter promptly and enhance the relevant interface to provide you with improved service. We appreciate your cooperation and support.
 

Common Errors During the Advanced KYC Process

  • Taking unclear, blurry, or incomplete photos may result in unsuccessful Advanced KYC verification. When performing face recognition, please remove your hat (if applicable) and face the camera directly.
  • Advanced KYC is connected to a third-party public security database, and the system conducts automatic verification, which cannot be manually overridden. If you have special circumstances, such as changes in residency or identity documents, that prevent authentication, please contact online customer service for advice.
  • Each account can only perform Advanced KYC up to three times per day. Please ensure the completeness and accuracy of the uploaded information.
  • If camera permissions are not granted for the app, you will be unable to take photos of your identity document or perform facial recognition.
