Welcome to Trezor.io/Start

Trezor.io/Start is the official entry point for setting up your Trezor hardware wallet. Whether you are a first‑time user or upgrading from an older device, this guide provides all the details you need to secure your cryptocurrency quickly and safely. Following these steps ensures you’re using genuine software and recommended practices.

Step 1: Unbox and Verify

When you open your Trezor package, you should see the device, a USB cable, and recovery seed cards. Verify that the hologram seal is intact — this confirms the device hasn’t been tampered with. Always purchase from official Trezor partners or the Trezor website to guarantee authenticity.

Step 2: Connect Your Device

Plug your Trezor into a computer using the supplied USB cable. The device will display a welcome message, confirming it is ready to begin. For mobile use, certain models also support connection via an OTG adapter.

Step 3: Install Trezor Suite

Visit trezor.io/start and download Trezor Suite, the official application for managing your wallet. Trezor Suite is available on Windows, macOS, Linux, and even as a browser app. Through Suite, you can update firmware, manage accounts, and check balances in one secure environment.

Step 4: Create a Wallet

Once connected, follow the prompts in Trezor Suite to create a new wallet. The device will generate a unique recovery seed. Write this seed down on paper and store it in a secure location offline. This recovery seed is your lifeline to restoring funds if the device is ever lost or damaged. Never store it digitally or share it with anyone.

Step 5: Secure With a PIN

Set up a strong PIN directly on the device. This extra layer of protection ensures that even if someone gets hold of your Trezor, they cannot access your funds without the PIN. Choose a combination that is hard to guess and avoid simple sequences.

Managing Your Crypto

After setup, you can send, receive, and manage multiple cryptocurrencies directly through Trezor Suite. All transactions must be confirmed on the hardware device, preventing malware or phishing attempts from changing transaction details.

Updates and Maintenance

Regular firmware updates are released to improve security and add new features. Always apply updates through Trezor Suite and confirm the update process on your device’s screen.

Support and Safety

If you encounter issues, visit the official support center at trezor.io/support. Only rely on official documentation and never disclose your recovery phrase to anyone — not even Trezor support staff.
