Using the official start page ensures you avoid fake apps, phishing sites, and malicious software.

Why Use Trezor.io/start™?

When you purchase a Trezor® device, it does not come preconfigured. This is intentional. By starting at trezor.io/start™, you guarantee that your wallet setup is fully private and secure. The page automatically detects your device model and guides you to install Trezor Suite™, the official desktop and web application.

  • Full control over your crypto assets

Step-by-Step Setup Using Trezor.io/start™

1. Connect Your Trezor® Device

Plug your Trezor® Model One or Model T into your computer using the USB cable provided. Make sure your device packaging was sealed and untampered with before opening.

2. Visit Trezor.io/start™

Open a browser and type trezor.io/start™ manually. Avoid clicking ads or third-party links. This page will redirect you to download Trezor Suite™ for Windows®, macOS®, or Linux®.

Download and install the app. Once installed, launch it and allow the application to communicate with your device. You may be prompted to install the latest firmware—this is a required and safe step.

4. Create a New Wallet

Choose “Create new wallet” in Trezor Suite™. Your Trezor® will generate a recovery seed (usually 12 or 24 words). Write these words down on paper and store them offline. Never take screenshots or store them digitally.

  • Send and receive crypto
  • Track portfolio value
  • Connect to third-party wallets safely

All transactions must be physically confirmed on your Trezor® device, keeping you protected from malware.
