Get started with Trezor — secure your crypto in minutes
Welcome — why Trezor?
Trezor puts you back in control of your crypto. A hardware wallet isolates your private keys on a dedicated device so they never touch the internet. Whether you’re holding a little or a lot, Trezor gives you a simple, robust foundation for long-term safety and everyday crypto use.
What you’ll need before you start
Before you begin, make sure you have three things:
Your new Trezor device (unopened box is best practice).
A secure computer with an up-to-date browser.
A quiet place to write down your recovery seed (pen + recovery card recommended).
Quick step-by-step setup
Visit Trezor.io/start on your desktop or laptop and follow the on-screen prompts.
Connect your Trezor device via the provided USB cable and confirm the device model on screen.
Install the official Trezor Suite when prompted — this is the companion app that helps you manage wallets and firmware safely.
Initialize your device: choose “Create new wallet” and set a device PIN. The PIN protects the device if it’s ever lost or stolen.
Write down your recovery seed exactly as shown (do not store it digitally). Confirm the seed when requested. This seed is the only way to recover your assets if the device is lost or damaged.
Finish setup and optionally add a passphrase for an extra layer of protection. You’re ready to receive, send, and manage crypto.
Best practices for security
Never share your recovery seed or PIN. No one from Trezor will ever ask for them.
Keep the seed offline and in at least two secure locations (preferably physically separated).
Verify firmware and Trezor Suite downloads only from the official site (Trezor.io).
Use a strong, unique PIN and consider a passphrase for hidden wallets.
Check transaction details on your Trezor device screen before confirming — the device is the single source of truth.
Troubleshooting & support
If something looks off during setup (unexpected screen text, missing recovery prompt, or tampered packaging), stop and contact official Trezor support. For step-by-step help, visit the Support section linked at Trezor.io/start where you’ll find guides, videos, and live help options.
Quick FAQ
Can I recover my wallet on another device? Yes — your recovery seed will restore access on any compatible hardware wallet.
What if I lose my seed? Without the seed you cannot recover your funds. Keep multiple, secure copies.
Is my firmware updatable? Yes — Trezor devices receive firmware updates for security and features. Always update through Trezor Suite.
