Trezor — Get Started with Your Hardware Wallet

Welcome to Trezor. If you’re holding your new device right now, you’ve made the first step toward owning your crypto with total control and modern security. This start page walks you through the essentials: connect, initialize, secure your recovery, and manage your coins.

Quick Start

Plug your Trezor into your computer using the supplied USB cable. Open Trezor Suite — our official management app — or visit the web setup wizard. Follow on-screen prompts to create a new wallet, or recover an existing one using your recovery seed.

Set up and Protect

Create a strong device PIN you will remember. The PIN protects access to your Trezor if it’s lost or stolen. Next, write down your recovery seed on the included recovery card and store it offline in a safe place. This seed is the single most important backup for your funds — never share it and never store it digitally.

Use Trezor Suite

Trezor Suite lets you send, receive, and exchange cryptocurrencies, check portfolio balances, and install supported apps. The interface guides beginners and professionals alike. Connect your device, open Suite, and follow the intuitive prompts to add accounts and manage assets.

Best Practices

• Always verify the device fingerprint on the screen before confirming transactions.
• Keep your firmware up to date — firmware updates include important security improvements.
• Avoid public Wi-Fi when performing sensitive operations.
• Use a separate, dedicated email and computer where possible for crypto activities.

Troubleshooting

If your device isn’t recognized, try a different USB port or cable and ensure you have the latest Trezor Bridge or Suite installed. Visit our Help Center for step-by-step guides, video tutorials, and community support.

Privacy & Security

Trezor is open-source by design. Every component is designed for transparency and auditability. Your private keys never leave the device. We do not have access to your funds or recovery seed. Learn more about our security model and third-party audits on the website.

Recovering Funds

If you need to recover a wallet, use the recovery option in Trezor Suite and carefully enter your recovery seed. Only use official Trezor software or trusted third-party tools compatible with BIP39/BIP32 standards.

Supported Coins & Features

Trezor supports hundreds of cryptocurrencies and tokens. Use built-in exchanges for swaps, explore third-party integrations for DeFi, and consider the optional passphrase for added security. The passphrase is like a 25th seed word—keep it secret. For developer tools and firmware updates, visit our resources and blog and community forums.
