When it comes to protecting your cryptocurrency, there’s no substitute for a hardware wallet. Trezor® offers one of the most trusted and secure solutions for storing digital assets offline. If you’ve just purchased a Trezor Model One or Trezor Model T, your journey starts at the official setup portal:
👉 Trézor.io/Start
This guide walks you through the complete process of getting your device up and running safely—so you can take control of your crypto with confidence.
Trezor hardware wallets are built on the principles of security, transparency, and user ownership. Unlike exchanges or online wallets, a Trezor device ensures your private keys never touch the internet. Your crypto is protected from hacks, phishing, malware, and unauthorized access.
Every transaction must be confirmed on the physical device, putting you in complete control of your funds.
To begin setup, visit the official setup page:
👉 https://trezor.io/start
This page detects your device model and directs you to the correct setup instructions. Be cautious of lookalike websites or third-party links. The official Trezor website is the only safe place to initialize your wallet.
To interact with your Trezor device, you’ll need to use Trezor Suite — the official desktop and web app.
Once installed, open the Trezor Suite app and plug in your device using a USB cable.
You’ll now be guided through the setup process:
Your Trezor may arrive without firmware. If prompted, Trezor Suite will offer to install the latest firmware version. This is a one-time process.
After the firmware is installed, choose “Create new wallet.” This option generates a new private key and addresses for you.
Trezor will now display your 12 or 24-word recovery phrase (also known as a seed phrase).
🔒 Important Tips:
This phrase is the only way to recover your funds if the device is lost or damaged.
You’ll now set a secure PIN on the device. This adds an extra layer of protection—any unauthorized user would need your PIN to access the wallet, even if they had the device.
Once setup is complete, you can:
All features in Trezor Suite are protected by your device. Anytime you send a transaction or make changes, you must confirm them physically on the Trezor screen.
If you're setting up a new Trezor to recover an existing wallet, choose “Recover wallet” during setup. Enter your previously backed up seed phrase exactly as given. This will restore access to all your previous accounts and assets.
Getting started with your Trezor device through Trézor.io/Start is the most secure way to take ownership of your digital assets. The setup is simple, but the protection it offers is powerful. With your private keys offline and fully in your hands, you're not just using a wallet—you're securing your financial independence.
