Trezor.io/Start®

Getting Started with Trezor.io/start (Version 22.9.3)

Trezor is a leading hardware wallet designed to secure your cryptocurrencies by storing your private keys offline. To begin, visit the official site at trezor.io/start, where you'll find detailed instructions to set up your device. After unboxing, connect your Trezor to your computer or smartphone via USB.

1. Setting Up Your Trezor Device

When you first unbox your Trezor hardware wallet, visit Trezor.io/start to begin the setup process. This website will guide you through installing Trezor Suite, the official software that interfaces with your Trezor device. Trezor Suite is available for both desktop and mobile platforms and offers a user-friendly experience to manage your crypto.

2. Installing the Firmware

Before you can use your Trezor wallet, you need to install the latest firmware. Trezor.io/start will walk you through the steps to ensure your device has the most up-to-date security features. Simply connect your Trezor to your computer via USB, follow the on-screen instructions, and verify that the firmware is correctly installed.

3. Creating a New Wallet

Once your firmware is updated, you can create a new wallet. This involves generating a unique recovery seed — a list of 12 to 24 words that act as a backup for your wallet. It’s crucial to write down your seed and store it in a safe place, as it’s the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged.
