Starting® Up Your Trezor® Hardware Wallet the Right Way
Welcome to the official Trezor Start page — your trusted source for setting up the Trezor hardware wallet. Whether you’re securing your first crypto or upgrading to a new device, this guide ensures your setup process is safe, simple, and authentic. Follow the instructions carefully to make sure your digital assets remain protected at every step.
Before you begin, make sure you have your Trezor device, a USB cable, and a computer with an active internet connection. Only visit the official website Trezor.io/Start to avoid counterfeit software or phishing sites. Once connected, the page will guide you through downloading the official Trezor Suite — the software that lets you manage your crypto portfolio securely.
Download and install the Trezor Suite for your operating system. Once installed, launch the app and connect your device. The Suite will recognize your hardware wallet and prompt you to set up or recover a wallet. The setup wizard provides easy on-screen steps, so even beginners can confidently create a secure environment.
During setup, you’ll be asked to generate a recovery seed — a 12 or 24-word backup that acts as the key to your crypto. Write these words on paper and store them safely offline. Never take screenshots or store them digitally. Your recovery phrase is your only backup, so treat it with the highest level of care.
After setup, you can begin adding crypto accounts through Trezor Suite. All transactions are confirmed directly on your device, ensuring your private keys never leave the hardware wallet. Trezor provides the strongest layer of protection, empowering you to send, receive, and store assets with complete confidence.
Trezor devices are designed for transparency, privacy, and security. With open-source firmware and trusted offline protection, Trezor remains a top choice for safeguarding digital wealth. Begin your journey now — because securing your crypto starts with knowledge and the right tools.
