THE FIRST FEW MINUTES

Set up at your
own pace.

Keep your device and its recovery information private. You do not need to rush, and no legitimate support agent should ask you to reveal your recovery words.

01

Check your device

Unpack your Trezor and inspect the packaging and device for anything unexpected. Use a computer you trust, connect the wallet directly, and avoid public or shared machines.

02

Open the official setup page

Enter trezor.io/start yourself rather than following an unfamiliar link in an email, message, advertisement, or search result. Confirm the spelling and secure connection in your browser.

03

Install Trezor Suite

Follow the official instructions to install or open Trezor Suite for your operating system. Let the app guide you through device checks and any firmware update. Do not disconnect the wallet while an update is in progress.

04

Create your wallet and backup

Choose the create-wallet option on your device and follow its screen. Your device will show recovery words for your backup. Write them down offline, in the order shown, and store them somewhere private and secure.

05

Confirm, then explore

Complete the device’s backup check and set a PIN by following on-device prompts. You can then explore accounts in Suite. Before receiving funds, verify addresses on the Trezor screen itself—not only on your computer.

YOUR BACKUP IS YOURS ALONE

Keep your recovery
words offline.

Your recovery seed is the master backup for your wallet. Anyone who obtains it may be able to access your assets. Trezor support will never need these words to troubleshoot a problem.

Read Trezor’s security guidance

Never share your seed.

  • × Never type it into a website or app.
  • × Never send it in a message or photo.
  • ✓ Only use it as directed on your device.
