What You Need to Get Started
Before visiting the page, prepare the following:

- A computer with internet access
- A USB cable to connect the device
- Pen and paper to write down your recovery seed
Step-by-Step Guide from Trezor.io/start
Here’s what you can expect when you follow the official setup process:
1. Connect Your Trezor
Plug in your device using the USB cable. Once connected, your browser may prompt you to download the Trezor Suite, which is the official app for managing your wallet.
2. Install Trezor Suite
Trezor Suite is a desktop and web interface that allows you to set up and manage your crypto securely. It's available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Download only from the official site: suite.trezor.io.
3. Install Firmware
When setting up a brand-new device, it will not come with firmware pre-installed. Trezor.io/start will guide you through installing the correct version securely. This step ensures your device is tamper-proof and safe to use.
4. Create a New Wallet
After firmware installation, you can create a new wallet. The device will display a recovery seed (usually 12, 18, or 24 words). Write this down on paper and store it offline—never take a photo or save it on a computer.
5. Confirm Recovery Seed
To ensure accuracy, Trezor will ask you to confirm the seed words. This prevents mistakes and guarantees that you've written it down correctly.
6. Set PIN and Security Settings
Set a strong PIN code for device access. You may also enable passphrase protection for extra security. These settings help protect your wallet even if the device is lost or stolen.
Post-Setup: What’s Next?
Once setup is complete, you can start managing your crypto with full peace of mind:
- ✔️ Send and receive cryptocurrencies
- ✔️ View portfolio with real-time market data
- ✔️ Use built-in exchange options securely
- ✔️ Connect to third-party wallets or dApps
Tips to Keep Your Wallet Safe
- 📌 Always double-check URLs. Only visit https://trezor.io/start.
- 🛡️ Never share your recovery seed with anyone — not even Trezor support.
- 🧾 Store your recovery seed in a fireproof safe or offline location.
- 🔌 Disconnect your Trezor when not in use.
