Setting up your Trezor hardware wallet through Trezor.io/start is the safest way to secure your crypto. This guide walks you through every step—simple, clear, and beginner-friendly. 🔐✨
Before visiting Trezor.io/start, make sure you have:
Your Trezor Model One or Model T
A USB cable
A computer or phone
A stable internet connection
Your recovery seed cards (blank)
Once ready, go to the official website: Trezor.io/start.
Trezor Suite is the official app for managing your device.
Visit Trezor.io/start and click Download Trezor Suite.
Install the app on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
Open it and connect your Trezor using USB.
You’ll see an on-screen prompt to begin the setup. The Suite ensures you’re using authentic firmware and guides you securely.
Click “Create new wallet” if this is your first time.
Or select “Recover wallet” if restoring from a seed.
Your Trezor will show a 12-, 18-, or 24-word seed on its screen.
Write each word carefully on the recovery card.
Never take photos or save it online.
This seed is the only way to recover your wallet.
Trezor Suite will help you create a strong PIN.
Use a 4–10 digit PIN for maximum security.
Always avoid simple combinations like “1234.”
This PIN protects your device from unauthorized access.
Your device may need a firmware update.
Simply follow the prompts in Trezor Suite.
Firmware installation ensures you're running the latest security features and performance upgrades. ⚙️🔄
Once the setup is done:
Go to Accounts
Choose Add Account
Select your blockchain (BTC, ETH, SOL, etc.)
Now you can receive, send, or track your assets securely. Trezor keeps your private keys offline for maximum safety.
Store your recovery seed in a safe place. 🔏

Always check URLs carefully – only use Trezor.io official sites.
Enable additional security features like Passphrase for advanced protection.
Yes! It’s the only official and safe page for setting up your device. Always double-check the URL. 🔍
Your crypto is safe. Use your recovery seed on a new Trezor to restore your wallet.
Trezor Suite works best on desktop, but you can connect using third-party apps depending on your device.
No—the crypto stays on the blockchain. Trezor stores your private keys offline.
Absolutely! It’s the master key to your wallet. Protect it like treasure. 🗝️
