The wait is over! Ledger Team is thrilled to announce the commercial launch of Ledger Recovery Key. This innovative product is designed to solve the “burden of the 24-word Seed Phrase” and make secure self-custody easier and more accessible.
What is Ledger Recovery Key?
Think of Ledger Recovery Key as a “spare key” to access your assets. It’s a physical, Secure Element & PIN-protected card that acts as an offline backup for your 24-word Seed Phrase.
- It is not a replacement for your paper recovery sheet – that remains your master key and it complements it.
- It’s not “seedless” – users always maintain full control of their Seed Phrase.
How You Can Get Ledger Recovery Key
We’ve made it simple for users to integrate Ledger Recovery Key into their security setup:
- Included at no extra charge when purchasing a new Ledger Flex or Ledger Stax
- Available as a standalone product for $39 on Ledger.com
- For multiple backups, a 3-pack bundle is available at a 15% discount.
Special Offer for Early Ledger Flex/Stax Supporters:
If you already purchased a Ledger Flex or Ledger Stax before today’s launch, you have the opportunity to receive a complimentary Ledger Recovery Key to enhance their security and control. They only have to pay for shipping. This offer is available until August 30.
What’s Changing for Users
- Simple & Fast: One-tap backup/restoration via encrypted NFC with Ledger Flex/Stax.

- Offline Security: Keeps the Seed Phrase completely offline, away from internet threats.
