Visit vanguard.com to explore funds, ETFs, robo-advisors, retirement planning tools, and educational content. Here’s a clearer guide for Vanguard’s login and registration on www.vanguard.com.
🔐 1. Logging In
To access your Vanguard account:
Visit www.vanguard.com.
Click “Personal investors”, then “Log On” in the top‑right corner.
Enter your Username and Password, then click the red Log On button.
Complete the second-factor authentication (2FA):
Via SMS code, biometrics on the Vanguard mobile app, or a physical security key (U2F).
You can now set up a YubiKey and disable SMS fallback if preferred.
📱 Mobile App Login:
Download from App Store/Google Play → open → enter credentials → (optionally) enable biometric login or save username.
🆕 2. Registering a New Account
On Vanguard.com, click “Register”, “Set up account access”, or similar.
Provide required personal details:
Tax ID (e.g. SSN), Vanguard account number (if applicable), security questions.
For new investment accounts (IRAs, brokerage): you’ll need bank routing info and SSN.
⚠️ Common pitfalls:
Use a supported, up-to-date browser, and disable ad‑blockers so forms work properly.
Some U.S. resident forms may not work from abroad — expats often need to register via phone or embassy.
You might encounter errors after e-signature; if so, call Vanguard support.
“I just used the app… had no issues.”
