Trezor.io/Start® – Starting Up Your Device – Trezor®

If you’ve just purchased a Trezor® hardware wallet, congratulations — you’ve taken the first step in securing your cryptocurrency assets. Trezor is a trusted name in crypto security, and setting up your device properly ensures your private keys remain safe, offline, and under your full control.

To begin, head to the official setup portal: https://trezor.io/start. This page offers step-by-step guidance to initialize your device, install the Trezor Suite app, and create your secure recovery seed. Whether you’re using the Trezor Model One or the Trezor Model T, the setup is simple, user-friendly, and fast.

🔰 Step 1: Visit Trezor.io/Start®

Begin by opening https://trezor.io/start in your browser. This is the official setup website, and it ensures you’re following the correct, secure process. You’ll be prompted to choose your device model — either the Trezor Model One or Model T.

⚠️ Security Tip: Always verify you are on the real Trezor site to avoid phishing attempts.

🔌 Step 2: Connect Your Device

Use the included USB cable to connect your Trezor device to your computer. Next, download and install Trezor Suite, the official app for managing your crypto wallet. Trezor Suite is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and there's also a web version if preferred.

The Suite will automatically detect your device and prompt you through each setup step.

🔄 Step 3: Install Firmware

New Trezor devices come without firmware installed, so this step ensures you're starting with a fresh, official version. Trezor Suite will walk you through the installation, which only takes a few moments.

Once installed, your device will reboot and be ready for wallet creation.

🔐 Step 4: Create Your Wallet & Recovery Seed

After installing firmware, select “Create new wallet.” Your Trezor will generate a 12- or 24-word recovery seed — the only backup for your wallet.

📝 Write your seed phrase on paper and store it securely offline. Never save it digitally, take photos, or share it online. This seed is your master key to recover funds.

🔑 Step 5: Set Your PIN and Optional Passphrase

Choose a PIN code that will be required every time you use your device. You can also enable an optional passphrase for added security. The passphrase acts as a hidden layer that protects additional wallets inside your device.

💻 Start Using Trezor Suite

With setup complete, you’re ready to use Trezor Suite to:

All actions must be physically confirmed on your device, making unauthorized access nearly impossible.

✅ Final Thoughts
