Welcome to Trezor.io/start

Safeguard your digital wealth with the strongest offline protection — fast, simple, and transparent.

Get Started with Your Trezor Wallet

Whether you own a Trezor Model One or Trezor Model T, the setup process begins at Trezor.io/start. This is the official and safest way to initialize your hardware wallet. Your funds, private keys, and data remain completely in your control — offline and protected from online threats.

Step 1: Connect and Confirm

Connect your new Trezor device to your computer or smartphone using the provided USB cable. Once connected, your browser or Trezor Suite App will recognize your device. Verify the holographic seal and device firmware to make sure it hasn’t been tampered with. Only use cables and software from official Trezor sources for maximum security.

Step 2: Access Trezor Suite

Visit Trezor.io/start to access the latest software — Trezor Suite. This desktop and web interface allows you to manage all your cryptocurrencies safely. Installation guides are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux systems. Trezor Suite combines intuitive design with advanced encryption for every transaction.

Step 3: Initialize and Backup

When initializing your wallet, you’ll create a new seed phrase — a list of 12, 18, or 24 unique words that serve as your backup key. Write these words down in order, keep them offline, and never share them digitally. Your backup phrase is the only way to restore access if your wallet is lost or damaged. It’s your personal vault key to the blockchain.

Step 4: Set a PIN for Extra Protection

After backup, you’ll choose a secure numeric PIN on your Trezor device. This PIN must be confirmed twice. Even if your wallet is stolen, no one can access your funds without it. For additional safety, Trezor also supports a passphrase feature — an extra layer that hides a separate wallet within the main one.

Manage Your Assets with Trezor Suite

Trezor Suite isn’t just a management dashboard — it’s your gateway to full crypto sovereignty. You can send, receive, and exchange Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many ERC‑20 tokens directly with your device confirmation. Built-in integrations for decentralized exchanges make swapping straightforward without exposure to phishing or malware attacks.

Track Portfolio in Real Time

Visualize all holdings in one unified interface. Real‑time value updates, transaction history, and fee customization help you make informed decisions. Every coin movement requires a physical confirmation on your Trezor device, adding peace of mind to every step.

Privacy Focused Design

No personal data or account registration is required. Trezor Suite lets you stay anonymous, using Tor connectivity options to hide network identity and activity. Transparency is core to its open‑source foundation — anyone can inspect the code to ensure there’s no hidden behavior.

Stay Updated and Secure

Always keep your firmware and Suite updated. The Trezor team regularly releases improvements for usability and compatibility. Be cautious of unofficial versions or clones — only download directly from Trezor.io. Legitimate devices always guide you through Trezor.io/start during setup.

Why Trust Trezor?

Trezor is more than a wallet — it’s a philosophy of decentralization and self‑custody. Built by SatoshiLabs, it was the first hardware wallet ever created, pioneering the open‑source movement in crypto security. Every detail, from the touchscreen interface to the cryptographic algorithms, is engineered for transparency, privacy, and ease of use.

Open Source Transparency

All Trezor code, firmware, and build instructions are publicly available. This openness means the entire crypto community can inspect, test, and verify the device’s integrity. No secret code, no surveillance risk — just pure security designed for freedom lovers and investors alike.

Compatible and Future‑Ready

Trezor supports hundreds of cryptocurrencies and tokens, continuously expanding with community updates. It integrates with advanced wallets like MetaMask, Electrum, and external apps seamlessly — giving you flexibility without compromise.

Tips for Long‑Term Crypto Safety

With these steps, you remain the sole custodian of your digital assets — no bank, exchange, or third‑party dependency required. Your crypto, your keys, your future.
