Get Started with Your Trezor Wallet
Welcome to Trezor.io/Start — the official setup page for your Trezor hardware wallet. This is the only safe and secure way to initialize your Trezor device, install firmware, and start protecting your cryptocurrencies.
Whether you’re new to crypto or a long-time investor, following the setup steps carefully ensures that your private keys remain secure and only in your control.
Step 1: Visit the Official Trezor Start Page
Open your browser and go to trezor.io/start. Always double-check the URL to avoid phishing sites. You should see the official Trezor logo and setup instructions for your device.
Step 2: Choose Your Device
On the page, select your Trezor model:
- Trezor Model One – the classic, beginner-friendly version.
- Trezor Model T – the premium version with a touchscreen and expanded features.
Step 3: Connect Your Trezor Device
Use the provided USB cable to connect your Trezor to your computer or mobile device. Your browser will prompt you to install the Trezor Suite — the official desktop and web app for managing your crypto.
Trezor Suite can be installed from suite.trezor.io. Once installed, open it and follow the on-screen instructions.
Step 4: Install Firmware
The first time you use your Trezor, it will ask to install firmware. This is the secure software that powers your device. Only install firmware through Trezor.io or the official Trezor Suite to ensure authenticity and safety.
Step 5: Create a New Wallet
Once firmware installation is complete, choose “Create New Wallet.” The device will generate your unique recovery seed phrase — usually 12, 18, or 24 words. This seed is your ultimate backup. Write it down on paper and store it securely offline. Never take a photo or store it digitally.
Step 6: Set a PIN and Passphrase
Next, you’ll create a secure PIN to protect your device from unauthorized use. For extra security, you can enable a passphrase — an optional feature that adds another layer of protection to your wallet.
Step 7: Access and Manage Your Crypto
After setup, your Trezor is ready to use! You can send, receive, and manage cryptocurrencies through the Trezor Suite interface. Each transaction must be confirmed physically on your Trezor device, preventing hackers or malware from making unauthorized transactions.
