Whether you’re new to crypto or upgrading from another wallet, this guide walks you through the complete setup process—helping you initialize your device, create your recovery seed, set a PIN, install Trezor Suite®, and start managing your digital assets safely.

TreZor® is trusted worldwide for delivering industry-leading hardware wallet security, and this start page ensures you follow the correct steps from the very beginning.

Why Start at Trézor.io/start®?

Using Trézor.io/start® guarantees:

  • You access official TreZor® software, avoiding fake or harmful downloads.
  • You follow authentic setup instructions, ensuring maximum security.
  • Your device is initialized in a controlled, trusted environment.
  • Your crypto private keys remain fully offline and protected.

When it comes to cryptocurrency, security begins with choosing the right source—and this is the only verified start page for your TreZor® wallet.

What You Need Before You Begin

To set up your TreZor® device smoothly, prepare the following:

  • A secure, unopened TreZor® hardware wallet
  • A computer running Windows, macOS, or Linux
  • The original USB cable that came with the device
  • Stable internet access
  • A quiet, private place to note down your recovery seed
Important: Never share your screen or recovery seed with anyone. TreZor® support will never ask for it.

Step 1: Connect Your TreZor® Device

  1. Unbox your TreZor® and check the security hologram sticker.
  2. Connect the device to your computer using the provided USB cable.
  3. Visit Trézor.io/start® in your browser.

Your device will prompt you to continue the installation using the official Trezor Suite® app.

Step 2: Download & Install Trezor Suite®

From the Trézor.io/start® page, download Trezor Suite®, the official desktop application that allows you to manage, store, and send your cryptocurrencies securely.

Trezor Suite® Highlights

  • Manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many popular cryptocurrencies
  • Send and receive transactions securely
  • View real-time portfolio value
  • Access built-in privacy tools such as Tor
  • Enjoy regular security updates
  • Configure wallets, accounts, and labels with ease

Once downloaded, install the software and open it to begin the device setup.

Step 3: Initialize Your New Hardware Wallet

Inside Trezor Suite®:

  1. Select “Create new wallet”
  2. Follow the guided instructions
  3. Let your device generate the secure cryptographic keys

Your TreZor® creates private keys internally, and these keys never leave the device—ensuring true offline security.

Step 4: Backup Your Recovery Seed — The Most Important Step

Your device will now show a 12-, 18-, or 24-word recovery seed. This is your master key to recover your entire wallet.

Recovery Seed Safety Rules

  • Write each word carefully on the provided recovery card
  • Never store the seed digitally (no photos, screenshots, online notes)
  • Never enter the seed on any website or app
  • Keep the seed in a secure, private, offline location
  • Do not share it with anyone—not even TreZor® support

If your device is lost, damaged, or stolen, your recovery seed is the only way to restore your funds.

Step 5: Set Your Secure PIN

Next, choose a strong PIN directly on your device.

A secure PIN should be:

  • 6 to 10 digits long
  • Difficult to guess
  • Not based on obvious patterns (like 1111 or 123456)

Your PIN adds an essential layer of protection against unauthorized access.

Step 6: Explore the Trezor Suite® Dashboard

Once your device is initialized, you will be taken to the Trezor Suite® dashboard. From here, you can:

  • Add accounts for different cryptocurrencies
  • Send and receive digital assets
  • Track your portfolio in real time
  • Enable advanced security settings
  • Manage all your crypto in one secure interface

Every transaction must be confirmed on your Trezor® screen—ensuring complete protection from online threats.

Step 7: Keep Firmware Updated

Trezor Suite® may prompt you to update your device firmware. These updates are crucial as they include:

  • New security protections
  • Performance improvements
  • Support for new coins and features

Always approve updates directly on your device and never disconnect during installation.

Troubleshooting & Support

If you run into issues:

  • Reconnect your device
  • Try a different USB cable
  • Restart Trezor Suite®
  • Visit the official Support Center through Trezor.io

Avoid unofficial websites or strangers offering “help.” Your recovery seed should always remain private.
