Welcome to Trezor.io/start

Your Gateway to Secure Self-Custody, Step by Step

Congratulations! You now own a Trezor hardware wallet—your first step toward genuine control and privacy in the crypto universe.
Trezor.io/start is the only official onboarding platform that covers installation, wallet creation, security, and expert guidance—designed for maximum safety, clarity, and confidence.

Why Trezor?

Unlike cloud wallets and exchange accounts, Trezor ensures that only you have access to your private keys. No corporate server, hacker, or software breach can reach your crypto if you follow the steps on this page. Security updates, authentic downloads, and live support are always one click away.

Offline Protection: Your keys never touch the internet.
Open Source: Transparent code, verified by thousands.
Multi-Asset Support: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, Cardano, Tether, and more.
User-Friendly Suite: Portfolio, price updates, swaps, and history at your fingertips.

Get Started in Minutes

Step 1. Download Trezor Suite
Visit trezor.io/start to access the latest, verified desktop or browser app. Pick Windows, macOS, or Linux, and begin the download via the official portal only.
Tip: Bookmark the page and double-check the URL for https://trezor.io—never click links from emails or ads.

Step 2. Install Your App Securely
Run the installer. For desktops, grant permissions and follow any prompts for device drivers. For Linux, enable USB access and set executable flags as instructed.
Advanced: Verify the cryptographic signature of your download if you're security-focused.

Step 3. Connect Trezor Device via USB
Plug your Model One or Model T and let Suite detect it. If prompted for firmware, update immediately, following device instructions to confirm authenticity.

Step 4. Initialize & Set PIN
Set up a unique PIN directly on your Trezor device. Never share or reuse this code. Use patterns or numbers not linked to personal info.

Step 5. Backup Your Recovery Seed
Your device will display a 12- or 24-word recovery seed—write it on paper or a steel plate. This phrase is your crypto's ultimate lifeline.
Do not screenshot, copy, or store your seed digitally. A physical backup is safest.

Step 6. Confirm Seed & Access Dashboard
Re-enter the 12 or 24 words as prompted to verify your backup. When complete, your Suite dashboard loads, showing balances, recent prices, and asset tools.

Step 7. Transfer Your Crypto
To guard your assets, transfer them from centralized exchanges into your Trezor wallet. Use the 'Receive' tab to generate a fresh address, then send coins from your previous account. Double-check the address and network.

Supported Coins & Portfolio

Your Trezor device lets you hold and manage a vibrant portfolio including:

Bitcoin (BTC)
Ethereum (ETH), including Lido Staked Ether (STETH)
Dogecoin (DOGE)
XRP, BNB, Cardano (ADA)
Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC)

For the complete, updated list and suite features, check your app dashboard after onboarding.

Security Tips for Peace of Mind

Never share, save online, or photograph your recovery seed—use offline backups only.
Update firmware and Suite app regularly; security patches arrive every month.
Access your wallet only through trezor.io or the desktop app—avoid browser extensions and third-party tools.
Enable passphrase protection and advanced features for extra security (available in Suite settings).
Take advantage of the built-in address verification—Trezor will always show the receiving address on the device screen, not just the app.

Trezor Suite vs Software Wallets

Unlike software wallets such as Exodus, Trezor Suite operates with hardware-level security. While software wallets are easier to start, their exposure to malware, hacks, and cloud leaks makes them riskier for long-term storage. Trezor’s isolation and physical confirmation for every transaction guarantees higher safety—even against sophisticated attacks. Transactions require device approval, so even if your computer is compromised, your funds remain safe.

Expert Sessions & Customer Support

Trezor offers live, 1:1 onboarding with security experts in English, bringing personalized help for setup, troubleshooting, and crypto privacy.
Book an expert session after device purchase for advanced support, common questions, and peace of mind before sending large amounts.

60-minute online calls include wallet setup, seed protection, and walkthrough of advanced Suite features.
Available for all Trezor models—just ensure your device is present during the session.

Need immediate help? Use live chat, support tickets, or in-depth guides in the Suite app and official blog.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Trezor Suite won’t open? Check that your app and firmware are up to date. If antivirus or VPN blocks access, whitelist Suite or adjust settings.
Screen blackout? Try a different USB port/cable and update firmware.
Incorrect balance or login problems? Clear cache/data, restart Suite, and verify that you’re on the latest version.
Still stuck? Reach out to Trezor support.

Advanced Suite Features

Manage multi-account setups for organized tracking.
Integrated exchange for secure asset swaps inside Suite.
Transaction fee selection (low/medium/high) for all outgoing payments.
Portfolio analytics and real-time price notifications for your crypto assets.

Privacy, Updates, and Analytics

Trezor Suite operates with rigorous transparency, never tracking your private keys or personal data. Analytics are opt-in and anonymized. Monthly updates bring improved asset support, user interface tweaks, and cutting-edge cryptographic standards. Set your update frequency in Suite settings for best results.

What to Remember

Trezor.io/start is always the official portal—never trust other sites for downloads or instructions.
Hardware wallets like Trezor are the most robust way to defeat phishing, cloud account hacks, and malware risks.
Keep backups offline and share security tips with trusted peers—a single mistake can mean loss of funds.
Install Suite updates regularly and monitor for firmware messages—your security grows with every patch.

Disclaimer: Cryptocurrency investing and self-custody entail risk. Trezor.io/start offers educational and technical resources, but SatoshiLabs does not take responsibility for lost assets due to negligence or improper handling of recovery seeds or PIN codes. Always verify all information and double‑check transaction details before finalizing transfers.
All product and security guidance reflects best practices as of November 2025; official updates may alter specifics—review latest content at trezor.io/start prior to downloading, onboarding, or deploying major funds.
