Device setup guide
Trézor.io/Start — Starting Up™ Your Device | Trezor®®
Getting started with a Trezor hardware wallet is a straightforward way to bring your crypto security under your control. Follow these steps carefully, verify every download, and keep your recovery backup private.
Start safely: type trezor.io/start directly into your browser and check the address before connecting your device. Never share your recovery words with a website, app, support agent, or another person.
Prepare your Trezor device
Unbox your device and inspect its packaging for signs of tampering. Connect it to your computer or phone using a suitable cable, then visit Trezor.io/start by entering the address yourself. The official setup guide identifies the next steps for your model. Avoid links in unsolicited messages, advertisements, or search results that imitate the brand.
Install Trezor Suite only from the official Trezor website. Suite is the companion app for managing supported accounts, viewing balances, and confirming transactions on your device. Your Trezor hardware wallet protects access by keeping sensitive signing operations on the physical device; Suite is the interface, not a substitute for checking what appears on the device screen.
Set up in a few clear steps
Take your time through the guided process. The exact screens can vary by model and software version, so follow the instructions shown by your device and the official setup page.
Create a wallet
Choose the option to create a new wallet if this is a new device. Confirm important actions on the device itself, not only in the browser window.
Set your PIN
Choose a private PIN when prompted. Keep it separate from your recovery backup and do not disclose it to anyone claiming to provide support.
Back up recovery words
Write the words down in the order displayed by your device and store them offline in a secure place. Never photograph, email, or type them into a computer or phone.
Use Trezor Suite and connectivity tools
After setup, open Trezor Suite to add supported accounts and review activity. Check addresses and transaction details on your Trezor screen before approving. Depending on your operating system or a particular browser-based workflow, you may see a prompt for Trezor Bridge. Install Bridge only from Trezor’s official site and only when the instructions for that workflow require it; many users can connect through Suite without separately installing it.
People sometimes search for “Trezor login” expecting a web account. Your wallet is accessed through compatible software and a connected device, with sensitive actions confirmed on the device. Be cautious of pages offering a login box that asks for recovery words. Trezor will never need your recovery phrase entered on a website to unlock your wallet.
Protect your wallet
- Keep your recovery words offline and private; anyone with them may be able to control the wallet.
- Verify the full receiving address and transaction details on your device display before confirming.
- Use official downloads and bookmark the legitimate Trezor website after verifying its address.
- If anything asks you to reveal your recovery phrase for “verification,” stop. It is a scam warning sign.
Frequently asked questions
What is Trezor.io/start?
It is the official starting point for model-specific setup guidance. Type the address directly and confirm the domain before following instructions.
Where should I download Trezor Suite?
Download it from the official Trezor website only. Avoid third-party download pages and verify the source before installing software.
Does setup require Trezor Bridge?
Not always. Bridge may be needed for some browser or operating-system connections; use it only if the official guide for your workflow asks for it.
Is there a Trezor login page for my recovery phrase?
No. Never enter recovery words into a website or share them with support. Keep them offline and confirm wallet actions on your device.
What if I lose my device?
A secure recovery backup is what can restore access with a compatible wallet. Keep it private and stored separately from your device; never test it by entering it online.
How do I know a transaction is correct?
Review the destination address, amount, and other displayed details on your hardware wallet screen before approving. Cancel if anything does not match.
