Trezor.io/start – Trezor Wallet Setup Guide
Welcome to the starting point for setting up your Trezor hardware wallet. Trezor.io/start is designed to guide users through the initial device setup, software installation, security configuration, and basic wallet management.
A Trezor hardware wallet is designed to help users keep control of their digital assets while keeping important wallet operations protected by a dedicated hardware device.
Before beginning, make sure your Trezor device is connected properly and that you are accessing the official Trezor website or official Trezor software.
Connect your Trezor hardware wallet to a compatible computer using the appropriate cable. Follow the instructions displayed by the official setup software.
During the initial setup, your device may require firmware installation or an update. Follow the instructions carefully and use only official Trezor software.
Follow the setup instructions to create a new wallet or restore an existing wallet where supported. Carefully read the information displayed on your Trezor device before proceeding.
Your recovery seed is one of the most important pieces of information associated with your wallet. Write it down exactly as instructed and store it somewhere secure and private.
Never share your recovery seed with anyone. Do not type it into websites, forms, emails, messages, or support chats.
Configure the available security features for your Trezor device and follow the recommendations presented during setup. Keep your device and recovery information physically protected.
Cryptocurrency users should be especially careful about fake wallet websites and impersonation scams. Always check the website address before entering any information.
Trezor support should not require you to disclose your recovery seed or other sensitive wallet credentials. Anyone asking for your recovery seed should be treated as suspicious.
After completing setup, you can use the supported Trezor software to view your wallet, manage supported assets, and review transactions. Always verify transaction details directly on your Trezor device before confirming a transaction.
Keep your software and device firmware updated through official channels when updates are available.
