Trezor.io/Start | Starting® Up® Your® Device®®™

Your secure crypto journey begins here

Welcome to the Official Trezor Setup Gateway

Embarking on your digital asset journey begins at Trezor.io/Start — the official and secure onboarding point for your Trezor hardware wallet. Whether you're safeguarding Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other digital assets, Trezor provides unmatched security, usability, and control.

Step 1: Unboxing & Trust Verification

When your Trezor arrives, ensure its packaging is sealed and untampered. Each device includes a tamper-evident hologram and seal. If anything looks suspicious, do not proceed.

Step 2: Navigate to Trezor.io/Start

Fire up your web browser and visit Trezor.io/Start. This is the only official onboarding portal for both Trezor Model T and Trezor One. Avoid third-party websites and links found on social media.

Installing Trezor Suite

Trezor Suite is your personal control panel. Download it directly from Trezor.io/Start to manage assets, monitor transactions, and update firmware safely.

Firmware Authentication

When prompted, update your firmware through Trezor Suite. This ensures you're using the latest security patches. Do not disconnect your device during the process.

Step 3: Creating a Secure Recovery Seed

Once initialized, your Trezor will generate a unique 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed. Write it down and store it offline. Do not take photos or save it on digital devices.

Seed Safety Tips

Important Note

Trezor.io/Start will never ask for your seed. Any prompt to enter your seed online is likely a phishing scam.

Device Activation Complete

Your Trezor is now ready to use. You can buy, receive, send, and hold cryptocurrencies all in one secure space. All major coins and ERC-20 tokens are supported.

Advanced Features Overview

Once you’re familiar with the basics, explore passphrase protection, multisig wallets, labeling, and Shamir Backup — all accessible from within Trezor Suite.
