Welcome to Trezor.io/Start

Your secure crypto journey begins here.

Welcome to Trezor.io/start — the official guide to setting up your Trezor hardware wallet. Whether you’re new to crypto or looking for a more secure way to protect your digital assets, you’re in the right place.

Trezor puts you in full control of your cryptocurrency, with world-class security, privacy, and ease of use. This page will walk you through how to set up your new Trezor wallet, install the necessary tools, and start managing your crypto safely.

Why Choose Trezor?

Trezor is the world’s first hardware wallet and remains a pioneer in cryptocurrency security. With a Trezor wallet, your private keys are stored offline, protected from online hacks, phishing attacks, and malware.

Key Benefits:

  • Cold storage security: Your keys never leave the device
  • Easy setup and user-friendly interface
  • Supports 1,000+ cryptocurrencies
  • Open-source firmware and transparent development
  • Direct connection to Trezor Suite for managing assets and exploring Web3

What You’ll Need

Before you start, make sure you have:

  • A genuine Trezor Model One or Trezor Model T device
  • A USB cable
  • A computer (Windows, macOS, or Linux)
  • Internet access
  • 5–10 minutes of your time

Note: Trezor will never pre-set your device or ask for your recovery seed. If your device arrives initialized, do not use it. Contact support.

Getting Started: Step-by-Step

Step 1: Go to Trezor.io/Start

Open your browser and navigate to trezor.io/start. Select your Trezor model — either Model One or Model T.

Step 2: Install Trezor Suite

Download and install Trezor Suite, the official desktop app for managing your device and crypto portfolio. It’s available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Trezor Suite allows you to:

  • Set up and manage your wallet
  • Send and receive crypto
  • Track your portfolio
  • Swap coins directly
  • Access decentralized apps (dApps)

Download only from https://suite.trezor.io to avoid fake apps.

Step 3: Initialize Your Device

  1. Plug in your Trezor and launch Trezor Suite.
  2. Choose “Create new wallet.”
  3. Your device will generate a recovery seed (12, 18, or 24 words).
  4. Write your seed down and store it safely offline. Never share it with anyone.

Trezor will guide you through verifying your recovery phrase directly on the device. Once verified, your wallet is ready!

Step 4: Add Your First Coins

Now that your wallet is set up, you can:

  • Add accounts for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other supported coins
  • Receive your first funds using your public wallet address
  • Explore Trezor Suite's full features like swaps, portfolio tracking, and privacy tools

What Can You Do with Trezor?

With your Trezor wallet and Trezor Suite, you can:

  • Send and receive 1,000+ cryptocurrencies
  • Buy and swap coins directly from the Trezor Suite interface
  • Manage NFTs on Ethereum and other supported chains
  • Connect to decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms
  • Protect your privacy with Tor integration and CoinJoin (for Bitcoin)

Trezor empowers you to take full ownership of your digital assets — safely, securely, and privately.

Stay Safe: Security Tips

  • Never enter your recovery seed on a phone, computer, or website
  • Only use the official Trezor Suite app or Trezor.io
  • Always double-check addresses before sending crypto
  • Use passphrases for added protection (optional advanced feature)
  • Back up your recovery seed securely — Trezor can’t recover it for you

Remember: Your crypto is only as safe as your recovery seed.
