Why begin at Trezor.io/start?
Trezor.io/start is the official onboarding portal from SatoshiLabs that ensures you download the genuine Trezor Suite app, follow the recommended setup flow, and verify your device before transferring funds. Using the official start page reduces phishing and tampering risks.
Quick setup: step-by-step
Open trezor.io/start directly — do not click links from untrusted messages.
Select the right installer for your OS (Windows, macOS, Linux) and follow the app instructions to begin device setup.
Check packaging seals and the device for signs of tampering. Trezor devices ship without firmware installed — follow the Suite prompts to install firmware.
Choose 'Create new wallet' for a fresh setup, or 'Recover wallet' to restore from an existing recovery seed.
Write down the recovery phrase on the supplied card. Never store it digitally. This seed is the only backup to recover funds.
Install official firmware via Trezor Suite and let the app confirm the device authenticity before use.
Add coins and accounts in Trezor Suite; always confirm addresses and transaction details on the device screen when sending funds.
Security best practices
- Only download Trezor Suite from the official start page.
- Never share your recovery seed with anyone — Trezor staff will never ask for it.
- Keep recovery backups in multiple secure, offline locations (consider a metal backup plate for long-term safety).
- Always verify addresses and transaction details on the physical device before approving.
- Beware of phishing and bookmark the official site for quick access.
Lost device or recovery questions
If your device is lost or damaged, use your recovery seed to restore a wallet on another Trezor device or a compatible recovery tool. Without the seed, funds cannot be recovered — so protect it carefully.
