FAQs

Why does TP-Link require my email address?

When you create a TP-Link ID, an email address will be required. Your TP-Link ID uses email addresses to sign you in to your account with TP-Link devices or TP-Link Apps like VIGI App, Kasa App, Tapo App, Tether App, Deco App etc. and provide the related services.

Most of the TP-Link devices can still function properly without using the App or TP-Link ID, but the VIGI App, Deco series, Kasa series and Tapo series devices must be set up and managed through the Apps.

With TP-Link ID, you can:

  • Verifying your account.
  • Resetting your password.
  • Remote management of your TP-Link devices.
