Welcome to the official setup guide for your Trezor hardware wallet. Follow our step-by-step instructions to secure your cryptocurrency assets with the world's most trusted hardware wallet solution.
Begin Setup ProcessCarefully unbox your Trezor device and ensure all components are present. You should find the Trezor hardware wallet itself, a USB cable, recovery seed cards, and instructions. Verify the holographic seal to confirm your device hasn't been tampered with during shipping.
Download and install Trezor Suite, our dedicated desktop application designed for optimal security and user experience. Always download from the official Trezor website to avoid counterfeit software. Trezor Suite is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems.
Connect your Trezor device using the provided USB cable. Follow the on-screen instructions in Trezor Suite to initialize your device. You'll have the option to create a new wallet or recover an existing wallet using your recovery seed if you're migrating from another device.
Create a strong PIN to protect your device from physical access. This PIN will be required every time you connect your Trezor. The device uses a randomized number layout to prevent keyloggers from capturing your PIN. Choose a combination that's easy for you to remember but difficult for others to guess.
Your recovery seed is the most important piece of information for your wallet. Write down the 12, 18, or 24 words in exact order on your recovery seed card. Store it in a secure location away from digital devices and prying eyes. Never store your seed digitally or take photos of it.
Confirm that you've correctly written down your recovery seed by performing a recovery check. This ensures you can restore your wallet if your Trezor is lost, stolen, or damaged. Once verified, you can start receiving and sending cryptocurrencies with enterprise-grade security.
