If you need to recover access to a forgotten account, contact support and we will help you regain control rather than open a new one.

Withdrawal requests are also processed fee-free by area138; your receiving bank may apply standard transfer charges.
Withdrawal requests on area138 are reviewed within a standard window. Your request enters a verification queue where we confirm your identity, check for any outstanding account holds or disputes, and validate the receiving account details.
