KEEP IT YOURS

One rule above
all others.

Your recovery seed unlocks your wallet. Treat it like the keys to everything inside.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Getting started,
made clearer.

A NOTE FOR YOUR FIRST SETUP — 2026

Getting started with a hardware wallet should feel deliberate, not daunting. Your Trezor keeps the keys to your digital assets offline, while Trezor Suite gives you a place to manage supported coins and tokens. Start by checking that the box and device arrived intact, then visit trezor.io/start by typing the address yourself. Follow the instructions shown there for your model and connect only when prompted. During setup, your device will guide you through creating a wallet and writing down a recovery seed. That seed is the backup for your wallet: keep it private, offline, and away from cameras, cloud storage, and anyone offering to help. Never type it into a website, app, chat, or support form. If you have a wallet, choose recovery when you intend to restore it and understand the risks. Set a PIN on the device, confirm details on its screen, and take time to verify every address before approving a transaction. When setup is complete, keep your recovery backup secure and separate from your device. You remain in control; Trezor cannot retrieve a lost seed. Bookmark the start page and return whenever you need model-specific guidance. Slow, careful steps now make day-to-day self-custody simpler and safer.

Your journey starts with a small, thoughtful step.

Where should I start setting up my Trezor?

Type trezor.io/start directly into your browser or use the button on this page to visit the official setup guide. Check the address carefully before connecting your device, and follow the steps for your specific model.

What is my recovery seed, and who should see it?

Your recovery seed is the offline backup that can restore access to your wallet. Write it down only as instructed on your Trezor device and store it privately, offline, and securely. Never share it with anyone or enter it into a website, app, message, or support form.

Can Trezor Support help me recover my seed?

No. Your recovery seed is private to you, and support will never ask you to reveal it. Anyone asking for your seed is not legitimate support. If you think it may have been exposed, use official Trezor guidance to understand your options.

What if I already have a wallet?

Choose a recovery flow only if you intend to restore an existing wallet and have your recovery backup available. For a new wallet, follow the create-wallet instructions displayed on your device. If you are unsure, pause and consult official model-specific help.

Where do I get the Trezor app?

Trezor Suite is available from the official Trezor website. Open trezor.io/trezor-suite by typing the address yourself, and avoid downloads from search ads, unsolicited messages, or third-party websites.
