Welcome to Trezor Setup
If you have just received your Trezor device, you're in the right place. Trezor.io/Start is your official starting point to “Starting™ Up” your device. This page will walk you through each step in a colorful, clear, and secure way. From connecting your device to verifying your first transaction, the setup process is designed to be simple, transparent, and safe.

Step‑by‑Step Setup Guide

Step 1: Connect & Visit Trezor.start
Plug your Trezor into your computer with the included USB cable. Then navigate to trezor.io/start to begin the official setup workflow.

Step 2: Install Firmware
The first time you use your device, you’ll be prompted to install the latest firmware. Confirm fingerprints and ensure authenticity. Always use the firmware provided from Trezor official sources.

Step 3: Create New Wallet / Recover
After firmware installation, choose to Create a new wallet or Recover wallet. If recovering, enter your 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed exactly as before.

Step 4: Set PIN & Backup Seed
Set a secure PIN using the on-device matrix and backup your recovery seed (write it down offline). Never share it or store it digitally. Confirm seed phrases when requested.

Step 5: Activate Coins & Access
Choose which cryptocurrencies you want active in your wallet (e.g. Bitcoin, Ethereum). Then click “Access Suite” or your connected application to start managing your assets.
Best Practices & Tips

Tip: Always Keep Seed Offline
Your recovery seed should never touch an internet-connected device. Store it securely in a safe, fireproof box, or use metal backup solutions.

Tip: Use Optional Passphrase
Enable an extra passphrase (25th word) for added security. It acts as a hidden wallet inside your Trezor—nobody knows which passphrase you used.

Tip: Keep Firmware Up to Date
Periodically check for firmware updates via the official Trezor site. Updates often include security enhancements and support for new currencies.

Tip: Always Use Official Tools
Only use Trezor Suite or the official web tools. Avoid third-party tools unless explicitly supported by Trezor to maintain security.
You're Ready to Go!
Congratulations—after completing these steps, your Trezor device is securely initialized. You can now send, receive, and manage your crypto with confidence. Return anytime to trezor.io/start for setup refresh or recovery.
