Ledger Recovery Key is your personal backup — fast, simple, and completely offline. With a single tap, you regain access to all your digital assets. Protected by a Secure Element chip and a personal PIN — only you are in control.

Why Ledger Recovery Key?

• Secure Element chip — the same level of security as passports and credit cards
• NFC connectivity — one-tap recovery to a new Ledger device
• IP68 protection — waterproof up to 1m for 30 minutes
• Personal PIN — only you choose and remember
• 100% offline — communicates only with original Ledger touchscreen devices

How does it work?

1. Backup — Tap the card to the device, create a PIN, and transfer encrypted data completely offline
2. Management — Store the card in a secure place — additional protection to paper seed phrases
3. Recovery — Tap the card to a new device, enter your PIN, and instantly regain access

Difference from paper seed phrases

Ledger Recovery Key is made of durable plastic, protected by a Secure Element chip and IP68. Paper seed phrases are fragile, can burn or get damaged — anyone can read and use them. The Recovery Key is only for you.
