The Official Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up Your Trezor Hardware Wallet
Welcome to Trezor.io/Start — the official setup page for all Trezor® hardware wallets. Whether you are a new user or upgrading from another wallet, this guide will help you set up your device safely and efficiently.
Trezor, developed by SatoshiLabs, is one of the most trusted hardware wallets for securely managing cryptocurrencies. Through Trezor.io/Start, you can initialize, configure, and back up your device while ensuring top-level security for your digital assets.
Trezor® is a pioneer in crypto security. It’s a hardware wallet that stores your private keys offline, ensuring that your coins are safe from hackers, phishing, or malware attacks. With models like Trezor Model One and Trezor Model T, you can manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of other coins with ease.
Go to the official page: https://trezor.io/start. Always type this URL manually or bookmark it to avoid phishing scams.
Select your model — Trezor Model T or Trezor One. Follow the on-screen instructions provided on Trezor.io/Start to proceed with initialization.
Download and install Trezor Suite — the official desktop and web application for managing your crypto. It’s available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Use the USB cable included in your box to connect your Trezor wallet. Once connected, your computer will automatically detect the device and prompt you to begin setup through Trezor Suite or Trezor.io/Start.
Choose “Create a new wallet” and follow the prompts. You will be asked to confirm your recovery seed — this is a 12, 18, or 24-word backup that is critical for restoring your wallet in case of loss or damage.
Write your recovery seed on paper and store it in a secure, offline location. Never take a photo or save it digitally.
The Trezor Suite interface is your gateway to managing your cryptocurrencies. Once your device is initialized, you can send, receive, and monitor crypto transactions securely.
Firmware updates are essential to maintain the security and performance of your wallet. Visit Trezor.io/Start or use Trezor Suite to check for updates. Always verify updates come from official Trezor sources.
Always verify the firmware signature from official Trezor servers to ensure authenticity.
Adding a PIN prevents unauthorized access, while a passphrase adds an extra layer of security. Both can be configured through Trezor Suite.
Ensure your cable is properly connected. Try another USB port or computer if needed. Also, verify drivers are updated.
Disconnect your device, restart your computer, and reconnect. Then reattempt the update via Trezor Suite.
If you’ve lost your seed and no backup exists, unfortunately, Trezor cannot recover it. Always back it up when prompted during setup.
