Trezor.io/Start – Begin Your Secure Crypto Journey

Welcome to Trezor.io/Start, the official starting point for setting up your Trezor hardware wallet the right way. This page guides you from unboxing to your first secure transaction, ensuring your private keys stay offline and under your control.

Open Trezor.io/Start

Always type the URL directly and verify the padlock before downloading.

Why choose Trezor.io/Start?

Using the official start page protects you from fake download links and phishing sites. You get verified installers, current firmware, and clear guidance so your device is configured correctly from day one.

Quick setup: step by step

  1. Connect your Trezor Model One or Model T with the included cable. Avoid untrusted accessories.

  2. Install Trezor Suite from the prompt at Trezor.io/Start. This is the secure app for managing your portfolio.

  3. Update firmware if requested. New devices ship without active firmware for security; installing from Suite ensures authenticity.

  4. Create a new wallet. Generate a recovery seed and write it down on paper, never digitally.

  5. Add a PIN and optionally a passphrase. These protect your device against unauthorized access.

Benefits you can count on

  • Cold-storage security: private keys never leave your device.
  • Open-source transparency: code can be audited by anyone.
  • Multi-asset support: manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many popular coins and tokens.
  • Friendly design: clear prompts, warnings, and confirmations help prevent mistakes.
  • Ongoing updates: frequent firmware and Suite improvements keep your wallet resilient.

Best practices to stay safe

Always type Trezor.io/Start directly into your browser and check the padlock before downloading anything. Never share your recovery seed with anyone, including “support.” If a website, app, or person asks for your 12–24 words, it is a scam. Store your seed phrase offline in multiple safe places, and consider using metal backups for durability.

Trezor Suite: your daily control center

After setup, Trezor Suite becomes your command center. Use it to send and receive crypto, view portfolio value, verify addresses on the device screen, and monitor network fees. Suite supports price tracking, labeling transactions, and coin-control tools for advanced users who want precise privacy and fee management.

Recovering or migrating funds

If you ever lose or replace your device, Trezor.io/Start walks you through recovery. With your seed words, you can restore your wallet on a new Trezor and immediately regain access to your funds and accounts. Keep calm, follow the on-screen instructions, and confirm sensitive actions on the hardware screen.

Tips for first transactions

Start with a small test send to learn the flow. Always confirm the recipient address on your Trezor screen, not just on your computer. Wait for network confirmations before spending received funds, and back up new account paths as needed within Suite.

Why hardware beats hot wallets

Software wallets leave keys on internet-connected devices, increasing exposure to malware and clipboard hijackers. With Trezor, signing happens inside the hardware, so even a compromised computer cannot see or export your private keys. This separation dramatically reduces risk while keeping everyday use simple.

Who is Trezor for?

Whether you are holding long-term, stacking regularly, or managing multiple assets, Trezor.io/Start offers a smooth path to secure self-custody. Beginners appreciate the clear setup wizard; experienced users value advanced features like passphrase, Shamir backups, and coin control.

Troubleshooting basics

If Suite doesn’t detect your device, try a different USB cable or port, and ensure the cable supports data. Confirm you have the latest Suite and firmware from Trezor.io/Start. On macOS or Linux, allow the USB connection when prompted. If issues persist, reconnect and check the device screen for approval requests—many problems resolve by confirming access. For unusual behavior, restart your computer and repeat the setup flow from the start. When in doubt, return to Trezor.io/Start for verified steps. Again.
