Trezor Setup — Trezor.io/Start | Official Setup Guide®

Welcome to the Official Trezor Setup Guide

The Trezor Setup Guide provides step-by-step instructions for initializing your device, installing firmware, and connecting securely to the Trezor Suite. Whether you use a Trezor Model One or Trezor Model T, this process ensures your wallet is ready for safe cryptocurrency management.

Trezor is built by SatoshiLabs, the pioneers of hardware wallet technology. By following this official guide, you ensure that your setup remains secure, verified, and protected from counterfeit downloads or phishing risks.

Steps to Start Your Trezor Device

Visit the official setup page: trezor.io/start.
Download the Trezor Suite App for your OS (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
Connect your Trezor device via the original USB cable.
Install the latest firmware as guided on-screen.
Create a new wallet or restore one using your recovery seed.

⚠️ Important: Only use trezor.io/start to set up your wallet. Never enter your recovery seed online or in any third-party app.

What is Trezor Suite?

Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web application for managing your crypto assets. It provides a modern, intuitive interface that allows you to buy, sell, send, and receive cryptocurrencies with complete security. By connecting directly to your Trezor hardware device, your private keys never leave the wallet — ensuring total offline protection.

💻 Manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of tokens.
🔐 Confirm transactions physically on your Trezor device.
🧭 Access real-time portfolio tracking and exchange integrations.
🕵️ Enable Tor for advanced privacy and anonymity.

Protecting Your Recovery Seed

During setup, your Trezor device generates a recovery seed — a 12, 18, or 24-word backup phrase. This seed is the master key to your funds. Write it down and store it offline in a secure place. It should never be typed on a computer or photographed.

🔒 Pro Tip: Use a fireproof metal backup, such as Cryptosteel, for long-term storage of your recovery seed.
