Your crypto journey begins at Trezor.com/Start®, the official page designed to help users set up their Trezor hardware wallet safely and easily. This guide ensures you follow the correct steps to install Trezor Suite™, back up your recovery seed, and take complete control over your digital assets. By starting at the official site, you avoid fake downloads and ensure your wallet is 100% authentic.

Why Use Trezor.com/Start®?

The internet is filled with phishing sites, fake apps, and malware that attempt to steal your cryptocurrency. By beginning at Trezor.com/Start®, you guarantee that you are downloading the genuine Trezor Suite™ and receiving authentic instructions directly from Trezor. This page is the trusted gateway for all new and returning users who want to keep their investments safe.

Step 1: Connect Your Trezor Device

Plug your Trezor device (Trezor Model One or Trezor Model T) into your computer via USB. Once connected, your device will direct you to open Trezor.com/Start®. Confirm the web address in your browser to ensure you are on the official website before proceeding.

Step 2: Download Trezor Suite™

From the official start page, download Trezor Suite™ for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux). There is also a browser-based version for quick access. Always download directly from Trezor.com/Start® to prevent exposure to unsafe files or fake applications.

Step 3: Install Firmware and Software Updates

When you connect your device for the first time, it may prompt you to install or update the firmware. Trezor frequently releases updates that patch vulnerabilities and improve performance. Keeping both your device firmware and Trezor Suite™ up-to-date is one of the best ways to protect your crypto.

Step 4: Create or Recover a Wallet

After installation, you’ll be prompted to create a new wallet or recover an existing one. - Choose Create Wallet if this is your first time using Trezor.
- Choose Recover Wallet if you already have a recovery seed from a previous setup. This process ensures your wallet is ready for secure storage and transactions.

Step 5: Backup Your Recovery Seed

During setup, you’ll receive a unique 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed. Write these words carefully on the recovery sheet provided and keep it offline in a private location. Never take screenshots, photos, or store it digitally. Your recovery seed is the master key to your wallet—anyone who has it can access your funds.

Step 6: Add Security Layers

Strengthen your Trezor with a personal PIN and, optionally, a passphrase. These extra security layers ensure that even if someone gets physical access to your device, they cannot move your crypto. With PIN and passphrase enabled, your wallet becomes resistant to most types of attacks.

Managing Your Assets with Trezor Suite™

Once setup is complete, Trezor Suite™ gives you a secure interface for managing Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, ERC-20 tokens, and more. Features include:
- Sending and receiving crypto with confirmation directly on your Trezor device.
- Viewing and organizing accounts with a clear portfolio dashboard.

- Always start from Trezor.com/Start® when downloading updates.
- Regularly update firmware and Suite for the latest protections.
- Store your recovery seed offline, never on a digital device.
- Double-check transaction details on your device screen before approving.
- Stay alert against phishing websites and suspicious emails.
