Trezor.io/Start® — Start Your Device Securely

Official quick start from Trezor®: download Trezor Suite, initialize your device, secure your recovery seed, and transact safely.

Fast, secure setup — protect your crypto

Trezor hardware wallets keep your private keys offline while Trezor Suite provides the interface to manage assets. Follow this landing-page guide to download official software, verify firmware authenticity, create a secure recovery backup, and confirm your first transaction using on-device signing.

1. Download from the official site

Only download Trezor Suite from trezor.io/start. Choose the correct installer for Windows, macOS or Linux. Avoid links from emails or social media to prevent phishing.

2. Connect and verify

Plug your Trezor device into your computer. Suite will guide you through a firmware check and installation. Always verify the firmware fingerprint shown on the device.

3. Create your recovery seed

Write down the 12–24 word recovery phrase exactly as shown. Do not photograph or store it digitally. This phrase is the only way to recover your funds if the device is lost.

4. Set PIN and optional passphrase

Set a strong PIN to protect against unauthorized access. Add a passphrase for a hidden wallet if you need extra protection; treat it like an additional password.

On-device signing

Transactions are signed inside the Trezor device, so private keys never leave the hardware—protecting you from malware and keyloggers.

Manage many coins

Use one device to manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano, Solana and thousands of tokens — add multiple accounts and switch address types securely.

Privacy & control

Optional Tor integration, discreet mode and custom backend support let you reduce metadata leakage and connect to your own full node.

Security checklist

  • Never enter your recovery seed into a computer or phone; store it offline.
  • Verify recipient addresses on your device screen before sending funds.
  • Use a PIN and consider a passphrase; keep firmware and Suite updated.
  • Consider a metal backup for long-term seed protection.
  • Only use official support channels—Trezor will never ask for your seed.
