Trezor.io/Start — Starting Up Your Device | Trezor®

Getting started with a new Trezor hardware wallet is designed to be a straightforward process. Whether you have purchased a Trezor Safe 3, Safe 5, Safe 7, or another supported device, the setup process begins with the official Trezor starting page. Trezor.io/Start provides access to Trezor Suite and guides you through the essential steps required to initialize your hardware wallet.

If you are setting up your device for the first time, following the official process is important. It helps you install the correct software, verify your device, install firmware, create your wallet, and protect your recovery information.

Begin at Trezor.io/Start

The first step is to visit Trezor.io/Start. Trezor's official setup page directs new users to download the Trezor Suite application and begin the device setup process. Trezor currently recommends the desktop application for the best experience, while a web version is also available.

Always make sure you are using the official Trezor website when downloading wallet software. Cryptocurrency users can encounter fraudulent websites designed to imitate legitimate wallet services, so checking the website address before downloading anything is an important security habit.

From the official Trezor.io/Start page, select the appropriate option for your device and operating system and follow the instructions displayed by Trezor Suite.

Download and Install Trezor Suite

Trezor Suite is the official application used to interact with your Trezor hardware wallet. The desktop application is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Trezor also provides a web application for supported browsers and devices.

After downloading the application, install it and launch Trezor Suite. Keep your Trezor device nearby along with the USB cable supplied or recommended for your model.

If you prefer not to install the desktop application, Trezor provides a web-based version of Suite. However, compatibility and connection methods can vary depending on your device, browser, and operating system

Connect and Verify Your Trezor

Once Trezor Suite is open, connect your hardware wallet and follow the instructions shown on the screen. The application will guide you through the initial security checks before continuing with setup.

Depending on your Trezor model, the exact verification process can differ. Newer devices may perform additional authenticity checks designed to confirm that the hardware is genuine. If anything about your device or packaging looks unusual, do not ignore the warning. Instead, stop and consult Trezor's official support resource

The official Trezor.io/Start page remains the recommended starting point if you need to restart the setup process or confirm where to obtain Trezor Suite.

Install the Firmware

Trezor devices are designed with security in mind, and supported models may arrive without firmware installed. During setup, Trezor Suite guides you through installing the appropriate official firmwa

Follow the instructions displayed in Trezor Suite and confirm actions on your Trezor device when requested. Do not disconnect the device while firmware installation is taking place.

Depending on the device and your requirements, Trezor Suite may offer different firmware choices, including Standard and Bitcoin-only firmware.

Create Your Wallet

After firmware installation, the next stage is creating or recovering a wallet. If this is a completely new Trezor, you can choose the option to create a new wallet. If you already have a wallet backup and are replacing or recovering a device, you can use the recovery process ins

During new-wallet setup, Trezor Suite will guide you through creating your wallet backup. This is one of the most important parts of the entire setup.

Protect Your Wallet Backup

Your wallet backup, sometimes called a recovery seed, is essential for recovering your cryptocurrency wallet if your physical device is lost, damaged, or unavailable. Trezor's setup guides instruct users to write the backup words down and keep them pr

Never share your wallet backup with anyone. Do not enter the words into websites, email them to yourself, save them in cloud storage, or provide them to someone claiming to be Trezor support.

A legitimate Trezor Suite setup should not require you to type your wallet backup into a website. Trezor specifically warns that the backup words should only be entered where the official setup process instructs you to do so, with the device itself being central to the secure p

Set Up Your PIN and Start Using Trezor Suite

After completing your wallet backup, you can configure your device security, including a PIN where supported. Trezor Suite then provides access to your wallet dashboard, where you can manage supported cryptocurrency accounts and view your portfolio.

Trezor Suite can be used for functions such as sending and receiving supported assets, tracking balances, and managing a

Before sending cryptocurrency to your new wallet, take a moment to familiarize yourself with the interface. When receiving funds, always verify important transaction details and addresses on your Trezor device.
