How Trezor.io/Start® Works
Trezor.io/Start® is the official onboarding platform designed to help you safely activate your Trezor hardware wallet. When you plug in your device for the first time, this page walks you through installing Trezor Suite, verifying firmware, and creating a new secure wallet.
Unlike software wallets or crypto exchanges, Trezor ensures that you control your private keys. Your wallet is created inside the device itself, and every transaction must be confirmed physically, protecting you from online attacks.
1. Connect Your Trezor
Plug your Trezor device into your computer using the USB cable. Visit Trezor.io/Start® to begin setup.
2. Install Trezor Suite
Download and install Trezor Suite for Windows, macOS, or Linux to manage your wallet securely.
3. Create a New Wallet
Your Trezor generates a unique recovery seed that becomes the master key to your crypto.
4. Secure Your Backup
Write down your recovery phrase and store it offline. This is the only way to recover your funds.
Once your wallet is set up, you can send, receive, stake, and exchange hundreds of cryptocurrencies. Trezor Suite allows you to track portfolio value and manage multiple accounts — all without giving up control of your private keys.
Trezor also supports advanced features like passphrase-protected hidden wallets, providing additional security for high-value accounts. With continuous firmware updates and open-source verification, Trezor remains one of the most trusted names in crypto security.
