Getting Started at Trezor.io/Start®

The official onboarding platform, Trezor.io/Start®, is designed to guide users through the setup process in a clear and intuitive way. This webpage ensures that your device is genuine and helps you configure it correctly from the very beginning.

What You Need Before Setup

Before starting, make sure you have:

  • Your Trezór® hardware wallet
  • A computer or mobile device with internet access
  • A USB cable
  • A quiet, private environment for backup creation

Once ready, proceed to the official start page to begin.

Step-by-Step: Starting Up Your Trezór® Device

1. Connect Your Device

Plug your Trezór® into your computer or mobile device using the provided cable. The device will power on automatically.

2. Install Trezor Suite

You will be prompted to download Trezor Suite, the official software interface for managing your wallet. This application allows you to view balances, send and receive assets, and adjust security settings.

3. Verify Device Authenticity

Trezor.io/Start® ensures your device is authentic by checking its firmware integrity. This step is crucial to confirm that your wallet has not been tampered with.

4. Create a New Wallet

Choose the option to create a new wallet. Your Trezór® will generate a unique recovery seed—this is the most important part of your setup.

5. Write Down the Recovery Seed

Your recovery seed consists of a sequence of words displayed on the device screen. Write them down on paper and store them securely offline. Never take photos or store them digitally.

6. Set a Strong PIN

Create a PIN code to prevent unauthorized access to your wallet. This adds an additional layer of physical security.

Understanding the Importance of the Recovery Seed

The recovery seed is the master key to your wallet. If your device is lost, damaged, or stolen, this seed allows you to restore access to your funds on a new Trezór® device. Anyone with access to this seed can control your assets, which is why it must remain private at all times.

Best practices include:

  • Storing the seed in a fireproof location
  • Never sharing it with anyone
  • Avoiding cloud storage or screenshots

Managing Crypto with Trezor Suite

Once your device is set up, Trezor Suite becomes your central hub for crypto management. Through the software, users can:

  • Monitor portfolio performance
  • Send and receive cryptocurrencies
  • Exchange assets securely
  • Enable advanced security features
  • Manage supported tokens and networks

The interface is designed to be clean and accessible while offering powerful tools for experienced users.

Security Features That Set Trezór® Apart

Trezór® integrates multiple security layers to ensure maximum protection:

  • Passphrase Protection: Adds a hidden wallet layer
  • Firmware Updates: Regular security improvements
  • Device Confirmation: Physical verification for transactions
  • Open-Source Code: Transparent and auditable security

These features work together to provide confidence in every transaction.

Best Practices for Long-Term Use

To maintain optimal security:

  • Always verify transaction details on the device screen
  • Keep firmware up to date via Trezor Suite
  • Avoid using your wallet on public computers
  • Never enter your recovery seed online

By following these practices, users can significantly reduce the risk of compromise.
