Welcome to the official Trezor start page — your trusted entry point to setting up and securing your crypto wallet. Whether you’re new to digital assets or an experienced investor, Trezor provides an open-source, transparent, and ultra-secure way to safeguard your cryptocurrencies.
1. Connect and Initialize
Start by connecting your Trezor device to your computer using the supplied USB cable. Visit Trezor Suite or the official setup portal at trezor.io/start. Follow the step-by-step wizard to either create a new wallet or restore one using your recovery seed.
2. Secure Your Recovery Seed
Your recovery seed is your ultimate backup. Write down the 12, 18, or 24 words shown on your Trezor’s display, and store them in a safe, offline location. Never share or photograph your seed phrase — anyone with it can access your funds.
Trezor never stores or transmits your seed. It’s generated and stays safely on your device. Keep it private, keep it safe.
3. Set Up a Strong PIN
Create a secure PIN to prevent unauthorized access to your device. The PIN screen is randomized each time you connect your Trezor, ensuring enhanced protection against keyloggers and screen recorders.
4. Explore Trezor Suite
Trezor Suite is your command center for managing assets, checking portfolio balances, and executing secure transactions. It offers:
- Real-time balance and market overview
- Built-in exchanges for swaps and buys
- Advanced privacy settings and Tor integration
- Support for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and hundreds of tokens
5. Firmware Updates
Keep your device up-to-date. Firmware updates include the latest security patches, compatibility improvements, and new feature integrations. Always install updates directly through Trezor Suite to ensure authenticity.
6. Privacy and Best Practices
- Always verify the device screen before confirming transactions.
- Use a dedicated computer for crypto-related activity.
