A few thoughtful steps are all it takes to get started. Set up your Trezor device with care, keep your recovery backup offline, and make every connection through official Trezor resources.
Take your time. Follow what appears on your own device, and use official Trezor resources whenever you need a current, model-specific instruction.
Buy from Trezor or an authorized reseller, then inspect the package for anything unusual. Trezor devices are designed to be initialized by you. If a device arrives with a recovery seed already written down, do not use it—contact official Trezor Support.
Use the official Trezor Suite download page linked here. Check the address carefully before downloading, and avoid sponsored search results, unsolicited messages, and third-party download mirrors. Install the version made for your operating system.
Connect your device using a trusted cable and open Trezor Suite. Follow the on-screen setup for your exact model, installing or updating firmware only when prompted by the official software. Read each confirmation on the device screen before approving.
If you choose to create a wallet, your device will guide you through a recovery backup. Write the words down in the order shown and store them offline in a private, secure place. Never photograph, type, email, or upload your seed.
A recovery seed gives access to your wallet. Trezor Support will never ask you to share it, and a legitimate setup flow should not ask you to enter it into a website, chat, or computer form. Only enter a recovery seed directly on your Trezor device when the device itself instructs you to do so.
Never share it with support staff or anyone online.
Never type it into a browser, app, or search engine.
Keep the written backup offline and somewhere private.
Simple answers to common questions about setting up your device.
Open the official Trezor Suite page directly. Verify the domain spelling before downloading and avoid links sent to you unexpectedly.
Your recovery backup can restore wallet access on a compatible wallet if your device is lost or damaged. That is why it must stay private and secure. If you suspect someone else has seen it, use official Trezor guidance promptly.
No. A wallet should be initialized by you, on your device. Never use a pre-written recovery phrase supplied with a package, by a seller, or by someone online.
Visit the official Trezor Learn center or Trezor Support. Confirm you are on the official domain before following instructions.
