Account Protection & Security

Robinhood Financial is an SEC-registered broker dealer and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), which means securities in your account (i.e. stock and option investments) are protected up to $500,000 (including $250,000 for claims for cash). For details, please see the SIPC website. For more information on Robinhood Financial, you can check us out on FINRA Broker Check.

Keep in mind that cryptocurrency investments through Robinhood Crypto are not protected by SIPC and that Robinhood Crypto is not a member of FINRA or SIPC.

Robinhood uses bank-level security measures to protect your personal information. Your password, social security number, trades, and other sensitive data are fully encrypted, and our mobile and web applications communicate securely using SSL and modern encryption.

We don’t store your online banking credentials and never will. Your banking credentials are only used once to authenticate your identity with your bank so that you can initiate transfers and withdrawals with Robinhood.

You can secure access to your Robinhood account using TouchID, FaceID or a custom pin code. We also offer two-factor authentication with an external authenticator app or via SMS.
