Official Ledger®® Login — Getting Started | Ledger™ 

1. Introduction

Welcome to the Ledger Login and Getting Started Guide. Ledger hardware wallets help users secure their cryptocurrency assets by keeping private keys protected within a dedicated signing device. With Ledger Wallet software, users can manage supported crypto assets, review balances, and approve transactions using their compatible device.

Before getting started, always verify that you are using Ledger’s genuine website and official applications. A website displaying the Ledger name or logo is not automatically an authorized Ledger service.

Official website: https://www.ledger.com/

2. Getting Started: User Manual

Follow these steps to begin using your Ledger device safely.

Step 1: Visit the official website. Open Ledger’s verified website and navigate to the appropriate setup or support section.

Step 2: Install the application. Download Ledger’s official wallet software only from a verified source. Avoid advertisements, unexpected downloads, and unfamiliar links.

Step 3: Connect your device. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to connect your hardware wallet and complete the initial setup.

Step 4: Create or restore a wallet. Follow the instructions displayed on your device. If creating a new wallet, write down your recovery phrase and store it offline in a secure location.

Do not enter your recovery phrase into a website, online form, messaging app, or unsolicited support tool. Do not approve transactions you do not understand. If a website requests your recovery phrase to complete a login, stop immediately.
