The Binance mobile website address is m.binance.com. When you access the Binance Official Website, the system will automatically jump to the mobile version based on the User-Agent. The APP supports password-free QR code login; just open the Binance Official APP and click the scan icon in the top right corner. iOS users can refer to the iOS Installation Tutorial to complete the installation. The login QR code is valid for 120 seconds, after which it must be refreshed. During login, the APP will require Face ID or Touch ID for secondary confirmation, plus a 6-digit 2FA code; the entire process takes less than 10 seconds.
1. Why Provide a Dedicated Mobile Domain?
Desktop binance.com page elements and JS resources are arranged for 1920×1080 resolution; opening it directly on a 6.7-inch phone can result in chart obstructions and misaligned buttons. Binance launched m.binance.com as an independent entry point for mobile browsers, loading a simplified UI, lightweight charts, and large buttons under the same account system. The two domains share cookies and session tokens, essentially being different UIs for the same set of accounts.
Step 1: Enter binance.com directly on your phone
The system will recognize your User-Agent (UA) and automatically perform a 302 redirect to m.binance.com. You can also add m.binance.com directly to your home screen as an icon; tapping it will open the mobile version.
Step 2: Confirm the address bar displays m.binance.com
Just like on the desktop version, check the lock icon and the certificate issued by DigiCert or GlobalSign; the top-level domain must be .com. Any domain with "mobile-binance", "binance-m", or "m-binance" prefixes or suffixes is a fake site.
2. How to Choose Among Three Types of Mobile Entry Points
Entry A: Mobile Browser (H5 Web Version)
- Suitable for temporary price checks and bill viewing.
- Advanced APIs cannot be used; some OTC P2P chat functions are limited.
- The web-side persistent login lasts for 7 days; an automatic logout occurs after 24 hours of inactivity.
Entry B: Official APP (iOS / Android)
- Full-featured: Supports Spot, Futures, Options, Earn, P2P, and Launchpad.
- Supports fingerprint, Face ID, and device binding.
- Login session is retained for 30 days; closing the APP does not log you out.
Entry C: Mini APP / WeChat In-app Browser
- Not recommended. The WeChat/QQ built-in browser blocks some JS domains, causing slider verification failures.
- If you can only see the link in WeChat, please copy the link and open it in Safari or Chrome.

4. Complete Process for APP QR Code Login to Web Version
Step 1: Bring up the QR code on the desktop version
Open the Binance Official Website on your desktop and click "Log In" in the top right corner. Find the "QR Login" tab below the login box; a 280×280 pixel QR code will pop up, with a 120-second countdown shown beside it.
Step 2: Click Scan on the APP
Open the official APP; there is a scan icon in the top right corner of the home page. Aim at the QR code on your desktop screen; the APP will recognize it and display a confirmation box saying "We detected you are attempting to log in on the web, do you confirm?".
Step 3: Biometric Verification + 2FA
After clicking confirm, the APP will require Face ID or Touch ID verification, followed by entering a 6-digit Google Authenticator or SMS verification code. The QR code on the desktop will automatically turn green and refresh to the home page, indicating a successful login.
Step 4: Check Login Records
Go to "Account - Security - Login History" and confirm that the IP, device, and browser UA for this login are all your own. If there are any unfamiliar entries, click "Terminate Session" immediately and change your password.
5. FAQ
Q1: What should I do if the QR login fails with "QR code expired"? The QR code is valid for 120 seconds; you must refresh it if it times out. Persistent scanning failures may be due to unsynced system time; check if your phone's time is set to be obtained automatically from the network. A deviation of more than 30 seconds will cause failure.
Q2: Why didn't a confirmation box pop up after the APP scanned the code? First, check if your APP version is up-to-date; versions below 2.58 do not support QR scanning. Second, check if system push notification permissions are enabled; if push notifications are turned off, the APP cannot receive the confirmation command from the server.
Q3: Can I scan the desktop QR code on my iPad? Yes. The Binance iPad APP shares the same scanning protocol with the iPhone version; simply open the APP on your iPad and scan the desktop QR code to log in.
Q4: Is 2FA required for QR code login? Yes. Scanning only replaces the account and password layer; 2FA is always a mandatory step, even on the same device.
Q5: Are the account credentials for the mobile website and APP the same? Completely the same. m.binance.com, binance.com, and the APP share the same set of account data, including assets, open orders, historical records, KYC status, and 2FA settings. Changing your password on any one platform will automatically force a re-login on the other two.
