In the world of digital assets, security and control are everything. As cryptocurrency continues to grow in popularity, ensuring your coins are stored safely has never been more important. That’s where Trezor comes in — a trusted leader in crypto hardware wallets.
If you’ve just purchased your Trezor device, your first step is to visit Trezor.io/start — the official and only secure setup portal for Trezor hardware wallets. This page is where you’ll initialize, update, and start managing your wallet with Trezor Suite, the official crypto management software.
This guide walks you through everything you need to know to set up your device safely and start managing your crypto with confidence.
Trezor was developed by SatoshiLabs, the pioneers of the world’s first cryptocurrency hardware wallet. Unlike online wallets or exchanges, Trezor keeps your private keys offline, meaning your crypto remains protected even if your computer or phone is compromised.
🔐 Offline Security: Your private keys are stored securely on your hardware device — never online.
🪙 Multi-Currency Support: Manage over 1,000 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many ERC-20 tokens.
💡 Easy to Use: Intuitive interface and guided setup process.
🧩 Trezor Suite Integration: Manage, trade, and track your assets safely in one app.
🌍 Open Source: 100% transparent and community-audited for maximum trust.
When you set up your Trezor wallet, you’re taking control of your digital freedom — your crypto, your keys, your security.
The only legitimate place to start your Trezor setup is https://trezor.io/start.
⚠️ Warning: Do not trust third-party sites or download links. Fake sites and phishing attempts are common in crypto — they can steal your recovery phrase and funds.
Once on the official site, select your device model:
Trezor Model One
Trezor Model T
Each model has a dedicated step-by-step setup guide.
To manage your wallet, you’ll need Trezor Suite — the official app for sending, receiving, and tracking your crypto securely.
Go to Trezor.io/start.
Choose your operating system:
Windows (10 and above)
macOS (10.14 and above)
Linux
Download and install the latest version of Trezor Suite.
Once installed, open the app on your desktop or browser. This software acts as your control center for all your crypto management.
Plug your Trezor hardware wallet (Model One or Model T) into your computer using the provided USB cable.
The Trezor logo will appear on your device screen. Follow the instructions in Trezor Suite to establish a secure connection.
If your device is brand new, Trezor Suite will prompt you to install firmware — the internal software that powers your wallet.
Click “Install firmware” and wait until it’s complete before proceeding. Never disconnect the device during installation.
Once your firmware is installed, you’ll be asked whether to create a new wallet or recover an existing one.
Click “Create new wallet.”
Your Trezor device will generate a recovery seed — a list of 12, 18, or 24 words.
Write these words down on the recovery card provided in your Trezor box.
Store the card safely and never share it online.
This recovery seed is your backup key. If your device is ever lost or damaged, you can recover your crypto using this phrase.
If you already have a wallet from another Trezor device, select “Recover wallet” and enter your recovery seed directly on your device (never on your computer).
To keep your wallet safe:
Set a PIN code on your device. This ensures only you can access it.
Enable passphrase protection for an added layer of security (recommended for advanced users).
Confirm every transaction on your Trezor screen — this prevents unauthorized transfers.
Your Trezor device is your digital vault — only you hold the keys.
Once your wallet is ready, use Trezor Suite to add cryptocurrency accounts.
You can:
View real-time balances and market prices
Send and receive transactions securely
Buy, sell, and swap crypto via integrated partners
Track your portfolio performance
Manage NFTs (supported networks only)
Every transaction must be confirmed directly on your Trezor device screen, ensuring complete control and security.
To maintain maximum safety:
Use only official sites: Always start at trezor.io.
Keep your recovery seed offline: Never photograph, email, or store it digitally.
Verify all addresses on your Trezor screen before confirming.
Update firmware and Suite regularly.
Avoid phishing attempts: Trezor will never ask for your recovery phrase.
By following these steps, you’ll keep your assets fully secure.
If your computer doesn’t recognize your device:
Try a different USB cable or port.
Restart your device and app.
Make sure your firmware and Suite are updated.
