🔐 What is Trezor.io/Start?

Trezor.io/start is the official webpage to begin setting up your Trezor hardware wallet. It helps you securely initialize your Trezor device, install necessary software, and begin managing your cryptocurrencies safely.


🛠️ Trezor Setup Process – Step by Step

1. Visit the Official Setup Page

  • Go to trezor.io/start in your browser.
  • Choose your device model: Trezor Model T or Trezor Model One.

2. Download and Install Trezor Suite

  • Click on the button to download Trezor Suite (available for Windows, macOS, Linux).
  • Install and open the Trezor Suite app.

3. Connect Your Trezor Device

  • Use the provided USB cable to connect your Trezor to your computer.
  • Follow on-screen instructions to recognize the device.

4. Install Firmware (if required)

  • If it's your first time using the device, Trezor will prompt you to install the latest firmware.
  • Confirm installation on the device screen (always verify details).

5. Create a New Wallet

  • Choose "Create new wallet" in Trezor Suite.
  • Confirm creation on your device.
  • You can optionally enable "Standard" or "Hidden" wallets.

6. Backup Your Recovery Seed

  • Write down your 12- or 24-word recovery seed as displayed on the Trezor device (not your computer).
  • Do not take pictures or store it digitally.
  • This is critical—your seed is the only way to recover your wallet.

7. Secure Your Device with a PIN

  • Set a strong PIN code through Trezor Suite.
  • Confirm it directly on the Trezor device.

8. Access Your Wallet

  • Once setup is complete, you’ll be able to:

  • Send/receive crypto
  • Manage coins and tokens
  • Use advanced features like passphrase, hidden wallets, etc.

✅ Tips for a Safe Experience

  • Only use official Trezor software and cables.
  • Keep your recovery seed offline and in a safe place.
  • Always verify address details on your Trezor screen before confirming any transaction.
