Whether you’re unboxing a brand-new Trezor Model One® or Trezor Model T®, this page ensures you set up your device safely, correctly, and without exposing your crypto assets to unnecessary risk.
Why trezor.io/start™ Matters ✔
Using trezor.io/start™ guarantees that you are accessing the official Trezor® environment, free from phishing links, fake apps, or malicious software. Always type the URL manually into your browser → never trust third-party download links or ads.
Step 1 → Connect Your Trezor® Device
Start by plugging your Trezor® hardware wallet into your computer using the provided USB cable. Once connected, visit trezor.io/start™, where you’ll be prompted to select your device model. This step ensures compatibility and directs you to the correct setup instructions.
Step 2 → Install Trezor Suite™
After choosing your device, you’ll be guided to download Trezor Suite™, the official desktop and web application for managing your crypto. Trezor Suite™ allows you to:
★ Send and receive cryptocurrencies
★ Track portfolio balances
★ Manage accounts securely
★ Update firmware safely
Always verify the software signature before installation for maximum security ®.
Step 3 → Firmware Installation & Verification
If your Trezor® is new, it will not have firmware installed. trezor.io/start™ walks you through installing the latest verified firmware directly from Trezor®. This step protects your device against known vulnerabilities and ensures compliance with the latest security standards™.
Step 4 → Create Wallet & Recovery Seed ✔
Once firmware is installed, you’ll create a new wallet. Your Trezor® will generate a recovery seed phrase (12 or 24 words). This phrase is your ultimate backup™.
✔ Write it down on paper
✔ Store it offline
✘ Never photograph it
✘ Never upload it online
Trezor® will ask you to confirm the words to ensure accuracy → take your time.
Step 5 → Set a Strong PIN ®
You’ll then set up a PIN directly on your Trezor® device. This PIN protects your wallet if the device is lost or stolen. Combined with the recovery seed, this creates a powerful dual-layer security system™.
Final Tips for Maximum Security ✔
★ Always access setup through trezor.io/start™
★ Keep your recovery seed private ®
★ Enable passphrase protection for advanced security
★ Update Trezor Suite™ regularly
By following trezor.io/start™, you ensure your crypto assets are protected by industry-leading hardware security designed by Trezor®. Safe setup = long-term peace of mind™.
