Get started in minutes — a short guide
Setting up a Trezor device is intentionally straightforward, but following a careful process will keep your assets safe. Start by downloading the Trezor Suite from the official site and confirm the download originates from trezor.io. Once installed, plug your device into a trusted computer and follow the Suite's prompts to install firmware and create a fresh wallet.
When you create your wallet, Trezor will generate a recovery seed — a human-readable sequence of words that is the sole backup to your funds. Write that seed on paper (or a steel backup if you prefer) and store it in a secure location such as a safe or safety deposit box. Never take photos of the seed or store it in cloud drives or notes apps.
After initialization, create a PIN for device-level protection. The PIN prevents an attacker from using your device even if they have physical access. For extra security, use the optional passphrase feature: it acts as a 25th word on top of your seed and can create hidden wallets. However, passphrases add responsibility — losing the passphrase will make funds unrecoverable.
Moving assets onto your Trezor is the final step. For each currency, create receive addresses from the Suite and confirm the address on the Trezor screen before sending. Transactions should be verified visually on the device — that prevents remote tampering from compromised hosts. If you use exchanges, withdraw to your Trezor addresses rather than leaving funds on custodial platforms long-term.
If anything goes wrong, consult the official documentation at trezor.io/start or contact support. For those new to hardware wallets, consider booking a guided onboarding session where an expert walks you through setup and best practices live. With the right process, a Trezor provides a long-term, reliable vault for your crypto holdings.
