Trêzor.io/start® — Starting Up Your Device | Trezor

Getting started with your hardware wallet is a critical step in securing your digital assets. Trêzor.io/start® is the official onboarding portal designed to help users safely set up their Trezor device, install the required software, and begin managing cryptocurrencies with confidence. Whether you are new to crypto or an experienced investor, following the correct startup process ensures maximum security from day one.

Why Start at Trêzor.io/start®?

When you purchase a Trezor hardware wallet, the first and most important rule is to only use the official setup page. Trêzor.io/start® provides verified firmware, step-by-step instructions, and security checks that protect you from counterfeit software or phishing attempts.
By visiting Trezor.io/start, users are guided through:
Authenticity verification of the device
Firmware installation or update
Wallet creation or recovery
Secure backup of recovery seed
This official process ensures that your private keys never leave your device and remain under your sole control.

Step-by-Step Guide to Starting Your Trezor Device

1. Unbox and Inspect Your Device
Before connecting your wallet, check the packaging carefully. A genuine Trezor device arrives sealed and untampered. If anything appears suspicious, do not proceed and return the device immediately.
2. Connect to Your Computer
Using the supplied USB cable, connect your Trezor to a trusted computer. Once connected, your device screen will prompt you to continue setup via the official onboarding site at Trezor.io/start.
3. Install Trezor Suite
Trêzor.io/start® will guide you to download Trezor Suite, the official desktop or web application. This software acts as your control center, allowing you to manage assets, track balances, and initiate transactions securely.
Always download Trezor Suite directly through Trezor.io/start to avoid malicious versions.
4. Install or Update Firmware
New devices ship without firmware for security reasons. During setup, you will be prompted to install the latest verified firmware. This step ensures your device is protected with the newest security improvements.
Firmware installation is done securely through Trezor.io/start, and your device screen will confirm every action.
Creating or Recovering a Wallet

Create a New Wallet

If this is your first Trezor device, you will create a new wallet. The device will generate a recovery seed—a list of 12 or 24 words. Write these words down offline and store them securely. Never take photos or store them digitally.

Recover an Existing Wallet

If you already have a recovery seed, you can restore access to your funds during setup. Trêzor.io/start® provides a safe recovery flow where seed entry is performed directly on the device, not on your computer.
This method ensures your sensitive information remains protected at all times.

Security Best Practices During Setup

Only use Trêzor.io/start® for initialization
Never share your recovery seed with anyone
Avoid public or shared computers during setup
Enable additional protections like PIN and passphrase
Following these practices dramatically reduces the risk of unauthorized access.

Managing Your Assets After Setup

Once setup is complete, Trezor Suite allows you to:
Send and receive cryptocurrencies
Manage multiple accounts
View portfolio performance
Access advanced security features
All future device updates and wallet management should continue through the official ecosystem linked from Trezor.io/start to maintain security integrity.

Final Thoughts

Starting your hardware wallet the right way is essential for long-term crypto safety. Trêzor.io/start® is the trusted and official entry point that ensures your Trezor device is genuine, updated, and securely configured. By carefully following each step and maintaining best security practices, you take full control of your digital assets with confidence.
