Get Started with Trezor

The easiest and safest way to manage your cryptocurrency.

Why a Trezor Wallet?

In the world of cryptocurrency, security comes first. Trezor is a hardware wallet that stores your private keys offline, making it immune to online attacks like malware, phishing, and hacking. Unlike software wallets that are connected to the internet, Trezor ensures your digital assets remain completely under your control.

Beyond security, Trezor is designed for simplicity. Whether you are just starting with crypto or managing multiple assets, Trezor makes it easy to send, receive, and track your coins safely.

What You’ll Need

Before starting, gather the following items:

  • Your Trezor hardware wallet
  • The USB cable included in the package
  • A computer or mobile device with internet access
  • A secure place to store your recovery seed

Having everything ready ensures a smooth setup process.

Step 1: Unbox and Connect

Begin by carefully unboxing your Trezor. Make sure the packaging is intact and untampered with. Inside, you should find:

  • The Trezor device
  • A USB cable
  • A recovery seed card

Connect the device to your computer or mobile device using the USB cable. Your device is now ready for setup.

Step 2: Visit the Official Setup Page

Navigate to trezor.io/start. This is the official page where you’ll download Trezor Bridge or Trezor Suite, the applications that allow your computer to communicate securely with the device.

Always make sure you’re on the official site to avoid scams and phishing attacks.

Step 3: Install Firmware

Once your device is connected, it may prompt you to install or update its firmware. Firmware is the internal software that ensures your Trezor operates securely. Updating to the latest version is critical for protecting your funds.

Follow the on-screen instructions. Your Trezor will verify that the firmware is authentic before installation. This step usually takes only a few minutes.

Step 4: Create Your Wallet

After installing the firmware, your Trezor will guide you to create a new wallet. During this process, it will generate a recovery seed—a set of 12, 18, or 24 words. This seed is the key to restoring your wallet if your device is lost, stolen, or damaged.

Important: Write down your recovery seed on the card provided. Do not store it digitally. Keep it in a safe, offline, and fireproof location.

Step 5: Set a PIN

To prevent unauthorized access, Trezor allows you to set a PIN. Every time your device connects, you will enter this PIN on the device itself. Trezor uses a randomized keypad, which means anyone watching your screen cannot guess your PIN.

Pick a PIN that is easy for you to remember but hard for others to guess. This adds an extra layer of protection for your funds.

Step 6: Explore Trezor Suite

Trezor Suite is the official application for managing your cryptocurrency. Connect your device to Trezor Suite to:

  • Send and receive crypto safely
  • Track your portfolio in real-time
  • Exchange cryptocurrencies without exposing your private keys
  • Manage multiple wallets effortlessly

Trezor Suite is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and selected mobile devices, giving you complete control wherever you go.

Security Best Practices

Follow these steps to keep your cryptocurrency safe:

  • Always download software from official Trezor sources
  • Never share your recovery seed or PIN with anyone
  • Keep your firmware up-to-date for the latest security features
  • Store your recovery seed offline in a secure location
  • Optionally, use passphrases to create hidden wallets for additional security

Supported Cryptocurrencies

Trezor supports thousands of cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many ERC-20 tokens. The wallet is continuously updated to add new assets, making it a versatile solution for both beginners and advanced crypto users.

Whether you hold large amounts or experiment with new tokens, Trezor keeps your funds safe and accessible.
