Setting up your Trezor Wallet is a straightforward process designed to maximize security while ensuring ease of use. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started:
Once you receive your Trezor device, unbox it carefully. Inside the package, you’ll find the Trezor hardware wallet, a USB cable, a recovery seed card, and user instructions.
Connect your Trezor device to your computer using the provided USB cable. The device will power on and display a welcome message.
Open your preferred web browser and navigate to trezor.io/start. This page provides a comprehensive guide for setting up your Trezor device.
Trezor Bridge is necessary for your device to communicate with the Trezor web application, Trezor Suite. Download and install Trezor Bridge from the setup page. Follow the installation instructions specific to your operating system.
Once Trezor Bridge is installed, open Trezor Suite. You will be prompted to create a new wallet or recover an existing one. Choose "Create a new wallet" if this is your first time setting up the device.
Set Up a PIN: Follow the on-screen instructions to set up a PIN code. This adds an essential layer of security to your wallet.
Write Down Your Recovery Seed: The device will generate a recovery seed (usually 24 words). Write down this seed on the recovery seed card provided. Store it in a safe place, as it is the only way to recover your wallet if your Trezor device is lost or damaged.
To ensure you have correctly recorded your recovery seed, Trezor will ask you to confirm it by selecting the words in the correct order. This step verifies that you have accurately copied the seed.
After confirming your seed, you can access Trezor Suite, where you can manage your cryptocurrencies, initiate transactions, and explore additional features like password management and account labeling.
By following these steps at trezor.io/start, you will have your Trezor Wallet set up securely and ready to use. With your Trezor Wallet, you can confidently manage your digital assets, knowing they are protected by one of the most secure hardware wallets available.
