Welcome to Trezor.io/start: the central starting point to set up, secure, and begin using your Trezor hardware wallet. Clear steps, trusted downloads, and practical guidance to make your first experience safe and simple.

Get started in three simple steps

Trezor.io/start is built to guide you from unboxing to secure transactions. Follow the official setup path to ensure your device is genuine, your recovery seed is stored safely, and your device firmware is up to date.

1
Verify & unbox

Check the device packaging and tamper-evident seals. Only proceed if the packaging matches the official guidance. Visit the official downloads and verification page to confirm authenticity before you install or connect.

2
Install Trezor Suite and Bridge

Download Trezor Suite or connect via supported wallets. If you need a background connection service, install Trezor Bridge for seamless USB communication. Always download installers from official sources and verify checksums when available.

3
Create & back up your recovery seed

Follow the on-device prompts to create your recovery seed. Write the seed down physically and store it in a secure location. Consider Shamir or multi-part backups for higher redundancy. Remember: anyone with your seed controls your funds.

Important security tips

  • Always download software from official sources to avoid counterfeit installers or malicious packages.
  • Never share your recovery seed with anyone; Trezor employees will never ask for it.
  • Use firmware verification in the setup flow to ensure your device is running authentic software.
  • Keep your device PIN and passphrase protected, and use passphrase features carefully.

Following these recommended steps at Trezor.io/start will greatly reduce risk and improve your long-term security. Treat your recovery seed and device with the same care you would any high-value asset.
