A GOOD FIRST STEP

What is Trezor.io/start?

Trezor.io/start is the official starting point for users setting up a new Trezor hardware wallet. It guides you to Trezor Suite, the software environment used to initialize and manage a compatible Trezor device.

The setup experience helps take you from an unopened hardware wallet to a configured self-custody wallet. Choose the desktop app or available browser experience, connect your device, and follow the on-screen instructions.

Your backup matters. It can restore access if your device is lost, damaged, or reset. Trezor does not hold it for you.

✳
01

A guided onboarding

The primary purpose of Trezor.io/start is to bring essential starting instructions together. From there, Trezor Suite guides the device configuration workflow.

02

Prepare your device

The workflow may include installing firmware, initializing the wallet, creating a wallet backup, setting device protection, and preparing accounts for supported assets.

03

You stay in control

The result is a self-custody environment where you control the wallet and its associated credentials. Trezor does not keep your backup for you.

!
A security reminder worth keeping

Never share your wallet backup, PIN, or sensitive credentials. Be cautious of websites, emails, messages, or support requests asking you to enter your backup online.

TRUST THE SOURCE

Why use the official
Trezor start process?

✓VERIFY
THE SOURCE

Starting from the official Trezor website helps reduce the risk of downloading counterfeit software or following instructions from an impersonation site. Crypto users are frequently targeted by phishing attempts, so verifying each source is an important first step.

Keep wallet backups private and avoid entering them digitally except where an official device workflow specifically requires it. Treat your backup as the most sensitive credential associated with your crypto wallet.
