Secure. Simple. Smart — Start Your Crypto Journey Safely with Trézor®

Welcome to Trézor.io/Start®

Trézor.io/Start® is the official onboarding guide for your Trézor® hardware wallet. Here, you’ll find everything you need to securely initialize, protect, and operate your Trézor® device. The setup is simple yet critical — it ensures your digital assets remain under your full control, away from online threats and malicious actors.

As a pioneer in crypto security, Trézor® gives you complete sovereignty over your private keys. With this setup guide, you’ll learn how to install firmware, back up your recovery phrase, connect to Trézor Suite, and manage your coins safely and efficiently.

Step 1: Visit the Official Trézor.io/Start® Page

Begin by visiting https://trezor.io/start. Always verify that you’re on the legitimate site before proceeding — check the URL carefully and ensure it begins with “https://” and displays the padlock icon. Avoid links from emails or third-party sources to prevent phishing attempts.

Once on the page, you’ll be guided to select your model — either the Trézor Model One or the Trézor Model T. Each setup process is slightly different, but both are built for maximum security and simplicity.

Step 2: Connect Your Device

Plug in your Trézor® device using the provided USB cable. When the device powers on, you’ll see a welcome message. Follow the on-screen instructions on both your computer and device to begin. If prompted, install or update the firmware directly through Trézor.io/Start® or the official Suite app — never from unverified sources.

This firmware ensures your wallet runs on the latest secure version. Trézor’s open-source code means every update is publicly verifiable and trusted by the crypto community worldwide.

Step 3: Install Trézor Suite

To manage your crypto holdings, download the Trézor Suite application — the official companion for your hardware wallet. It’s available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, offering a unified interface to view, send, and receive crypto assets securely.

Trézor Suite provides real-time price tracking, portfolio overviews, and connection to Web3 apps. It’s where your hardware wallet and crypto life meet — privately and securely.

Step 4: Create and Back Up Your Wallet

Once your device is connected and Suite is installed, create a new wallet. During this process, your Trézor® will generate a recovery seed phrase — typically 12, 18, or 24 words. This phrase is the single most important backup of your funds. Write it down on paper and store it safely offline — not on your phone or computer.

If your device is lost or damaged, this seed will let you restore your funds on any Trézor® device. Treat it like the key to your digital vault — anyone with this seed can access your crypto, so keep it private and secure.

Step 5: Add and Manage Your Crypto

Now that your wallet is ready, you can start adding cryptocurrencies. Trézor® supports hundreds of assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Cardano, and ERC-20 tokens. Use Trézor Suite to manage accounts, track portfolio performance, and confirm transactions directly on your device’s display.

Every outgoing transaction requires manual confirmation on your hardware wallet — ensuring no one can send funds without your physical approval, even if your computer is compromised.

Step 6: Strengthen Your Security Settings

Enhance your wallet’s protection by enabling additional security features such as PIN protection and an optional passphrase. The passphrase creates an extra layer of encryption, making it virtually impossible for anyone else to access your wallet even if they have your seed phrase.

Trézor® also allows you to verify firmware authenticity and device integrity, ensuring every connection and update is legitimate.

Step 7: Explore Trézor Suite Tools

Trézor Suite isn’t just a wallet — it’s a full crypto control center. You can manage multiple assets, monitor transactions, and even interact with decentralized apps (DApps) safely. It integrates with platforms like MetaMask and supports DeFi operations while maintaining hardware-level security.

From portfolio insights to live market data, Suite keeps your crypto organized and secure in one elegant dashboard.

Step 8: Keep Your Device Updated

Trézor® continuously improves its firmware and software to protect against emerging security threats. Regularly check for updates through Trézor Suite or Trézor.io/Start®. Updating ensures compatibility with the latest coins, features, and safety enhancements.

Always verify updates within the official environment — never download from unknown websites. Trézor’s transparent open-source ecosystem ensures every line of code can be trusted and audited.

As the world’s first hardware wallet, Trézor® has earned global trust for its reliability and open-source foundation. Millions of users rely on it to secure digital wealth, manage portfolios, and explore Web3 safely. Unlike custodial wallets or exchanges, Trézor® ensures “Your Keys. Your Coins.”
