Pintu Account Security: PIN, Password, Biometrics, & Account Recovery

Do Pintu users hold their Private Key?

Pintu is a custodial crypto exchange. This means Pintu holds custody of your private key.

Because of this, Pintu doesn’t share private keys with users.

You can turn on fingerprint or face scan as extra security:

  1. Open the Account menu, then tap Account Security.
