Begin Your Secure Crypto Journey at Trezor.io/Start
Welcome to Trezor.io/Start, the official starting point for setting up your Trezor hardware wallet. Whether you’re new to cryptocurrencies or an experienced investor, this guide will help you safely set up your device, protect your assets, and take full control of your crypto journey. Trezor hardware wallets store your private keys offline, giving you the highest level of security against hacks, malware, and unauthorized access.
Why Start at Trezor.io/Start?
Your crypto security begins with using official tools. Trezor.io/Start is the only authorized onboarding page for Trezor wallets. Following the instructions here ensures you:
Verify your Trezor device is genuine
Install Trezor Suite safely
Generate and securely store your recovery seed
Learn how to manage, send, and receive crypto
Avoid phishing attempts and scams
Using third-party guides or unofficial links can put your assets at risk. By starting at Trezor.io/Start, you are taking the safest and most reliable path to secure your cryptocurrency.
Step 1: Connect Your Trezor Device
Select your Trezor device model, such as the Trezor Model One or Trezor Model T. Both devices provide top-tier security, with differences in connectivity and display features.
Connect your device to your computer or smartphone using the supplied USB cable. For new Trezor devices, always ensure the box is sealed and that no recovery seed is included in the packaging—Trezor devices are never pre-configured.
Step 2: Install Trezor Suite
Trezor Suite is the official software used to manage your crypto. From Trezor.io/Start, download the app for your operating system—Windows, macOS, Linux, or as a web app.
Trezor Suite allows you to:
Add and manage multiple crypto accounts
Send and receive cryptocurrencies safely
Track your portfolio in real time
Integrate with third-party apps and DeFi platforms securely
Always download Trezor Suite directly from Trezor.io/Start to avoid malware or counterfeit software.
Step 3: Set Up Your Device and PIN
When you start your Trezor for the first time, you will be prompted to create a PIN code. The PIN protects your device if lost or stolen. Choose a unique PIN and never share it. The device will require your PIN every time it connects, and multiple incorrect attempts will temporarily lock the device to prevent unauthorized access.
Step 4: Generate and Secure Your Recovery Seed
The most critical step is generating your recovery seed—a unique set of 12, 18, or 24 words that act as a backup for your crypto. Your recovery seed is the only way to restore your funds if your device is lost, stolen, or damaged.
Important guidelines:
Write the seed down on paper using the provided recovery card
Never store it digitally (photos, screenshots, or cloud storage are unsafe)
Keep it in a secure and private location
Never share your seed with anyone
Trezor will never ask for your recovery seed. Anyone with access to it can control your crypto, so securing it is essential.
Step 5: Verify Your Recovery Seed
After writing down your recovery seed, your Trezor device will guide you through a verification process. This ensures that the seed has been correctly recorded. Verification is crucial—skipping this step can lead to permanent loss of access to your funds.
Step 6: Add Crypto Accounts
Once your device is ready, use Trezor Suite to add accounts for supported cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of other coins and tokens.
Each transaction must be confirmed on your Trezor device, keeping your assets secure even if your computer or phone is compromised. Trezor devices support managing multiple cryptocurrencies from a single device, making it easy to monitor and control your portfolio.
Learn Best Practices for Crypto Security
Trezor.io/Start also provides guidance on staying safe in the crypto ecosystem. Key practices include:
Identifying phishing emails and fake websites
Avoiding scams pretending to be Trezor support
Updating device firmware securely
Storing your recovery seed safely
Confirming transaction details before approving
Security is not just about technology—it’s also about awareness. Trezor helps you build both.
Take Full Control of Your Crypto
By completing setup at Trezor.io/Start, you maintain full ownership of your assets. Trezor does not store your recovery seed, cannot access your funds, and cannot reverse transactions. Your private keys remain offline, giving you ultimate control and security.
