Ledger.com/start – Get Started With Your Ledger Wallet
Ledger.com/start is the starting point for setting up and managing a Ledger hardware wallet. It can help users understand the initial device setup process, connect their hardware wallet with compatible Ledger software, and learn essential security practices for protecting digital assets.
Before beginning, make sure you have your Ledger device available and are using an official Ledger source. Avoid downloading wallet software from unknown websites or following setup instructions provided through unsolicited messages.
A typical setup includes connecting your Ledger device, installing or opening the appropriate official Ledger software, and following the instructions displayed during configuration.
Connect your Ledger hardware wallet to a compatible computer or supported device using the appropriate cable or connection method.
Use official Ledger software to interact with your hardware wallet. Follow the installation and setup instructions provided by Ledger.
Follow the instructions displayed on the Ledger device and in the official software. Take your time and carefully review each step.
Depending on your circumstances, you may create a new wallet or use the supported recovery process for an existing wallet.
Your recovery phrase is extremely sensitive and should remain private.
Never share your recovery phrase with anyone. Do not enter it into websites, online forms, emails, messages, or support chats.
A hardware wallet provides security features, but safe user practices are still essential. Keep your physical Ledger device secure and protect your recovery information in a safe location.
Always verify important transaction details on the Ledger device before approving a transaction.
Scammers may create websites that imitate Ledger and use terms such as "Ledger Login," "Ledger Support," or "Ledger Activation" to convince users to provide confidential information.
Always verify the website address before downloading software or entering information. Do not trust unsolicited messages claiming that your wallet needs urgent verification, synchronization, or recovery.
Use current official Ledger software and follow official instructions when updates are available. Avoid modified applications, unofficial downloads, and software obtained from unknown sources.
If your Ledger device is not detected, check the connection and cable, restart the official software, and make sure you are using a supported version of the software and operating system.
For technical problems, consult official Ledger support documentation. Never provide your recovery phrase to someone offering technical assistance.
