Set up your Trezor — fast, safe, and official

Welcome — this page walks you step-by-step through getting your Trezor hardware wallet ready to use. We cover downloading the official Trezor Suite, installing firmware, creating your wallet, securing your recovery seed, and moving funds safely. The whole process typically takes about 10–20 minutes and ensures your keys are stored offline.

Safety first

Only download software from trezor.io or the official Trezor Suite links. Never share your recovery seed or PIN with anyone. If a device box or tamper-seal looks suspicious, contact support before proceeding.

Full step-by-step summary

1) Visit trezor.io/start and choose the Trezor Suite download appropriate for your operating system (desktop or web app). 2) Connect your Trezor, follow the on-screen prompts and install the firmware — Trezor devices ship without firmware so the Suite will guide you. 3) Choose “Create new wallet”, set a PIN, and carefully write down the recovery seed exactly as shown. Use a durable backup method (metal backup recommended for long-term storage). 4) Verify your addresses on the device screen when receiving funds and always confirm transactions on the device itself. 5) Practice safe handling: never enter your seed into a computer or phone, never share it, and always update firmware through the official Trezor Suite when prompted.

These steps are the official recommended onboarding path and are designed to keep private keys offline while enabling secure signing and transaction verification.
