This is the official start page for your Trezor hardware wallet. Begin your crypto journey safely by setting up, securing, and managing your digital assets. Our redesigned guide offers a fresh visual experience, mirror-reflective style, and improved clarity for every step of the initialization process.
Connect your Trezor device to your computer using the provided USB cable. Visit Trezor.io/Start in your web browser. You’ll be guided to install Trezor Suite — the official desktop interface for managing your device and cryptocurrencies.
Once installed, the Suite will automatically recognize your Trezor. You’ll be prompted to either create a new wallet or recover an existing one. If this is your first setup, choose “Create a new wallet”. Follow the on-screen instructions carefully.
Download only from Trezor.io. The Suite ensures secure communication with your hardware wallet and allows you to manage over a thousand coins.
Every Trezor comes sealed. If the packaging appears tampered with, do not proceed — contact Trezor Support immediately for verification.
When initializing, your Trezor might prompt a firmware update. Always allow it — this ensures the latest security and compatibility improvements are installed.
Security is the foundation of Trezor. You’ll be asked to set a PIN code — this prevents unauthorized access. Choose a complex PIN that you can remember but others cannot guess. The PIN entry system is randomized on-screen for added protection.
Next, your device will display your recovery seed phrase — a series of 12, 18, or 24 words. This phrase is the master key to your wallet. Write it down on the provided recovery card, and never take a digital photo of it. Store it offline in a secure, fireproof location.
With your PIN and recovery seed secured, your Trezor wallet is now protected even if your computer is compromised.
If you ever lose or reset your device, you can recover your entire wallet using your recovery seed phrase. During recovery, you’ll re-enter your seed directly on the Trezor device, ensuring that it never touches your computer screen or internet connection.
Once entered, your wallet will be restored with all your addresses, coins, and transaction history intact. This process is one of the key reasons Trezor remains a trusted hardware wallet for digital asset security.
Your private keys are generated and stored within the Trezor — never exposed online. The recovery happens entirely within the device.
Never share your recovery words with anyone. No legitimate support agent will ever ask for them — protect your phrase as if it were gold.
Your seed can be imported into any Trezor device, ensuring you always have access to your crypto, even if your hardware is replaced.
