If you previously had a Bitpanda account and can’t access it anymore, you can request a secure reactivation. You’ll submit a short form with your account email. If the account still exists in our database, we’ll send you a Sumsub identity verification link. After successful verification, we’ll reactivate your account and send a confirmation email.
