Trézor.io/Start — Starting Up™ Your Device | Trezor®®

As cryptocurrency adoption grows, so does the importance of secure storage. Hardware wallets provide unmatched protection, and Trezor remains one of the most trusted names in the industry. To begin using your device correctly, the journey always starts at Trezor.io/start.

Why Choose a Hardware Wallet?

Unlike software wallets or exchanges, a hardware wallet stores your private keys offline. This means your crypto remains protected even if your computer is compromised. Trezor wallets are designed to give users full ownership and transparency without sacrificing ease of use.

Visiting Trezor.io/start Safely

Before connecting your device, manually type Trezor.io/start into your browser. Avoid clicking ads or third-party links. This ensures you’re accessing the legitimate Trezor setup environment and not a phishing site pretending to be official.

Once there, you’ll select your device model and be guided through the setup.

Setting Up Your Trezor Wallet

The setup process includes:

  • Installing Trezor Suite on desktop or mobile
  • Confirming device authenticity
  • Creating a wallet and generating a recovery seed
  • Setting a PIN for everyday protection

Trezor Suite acts as your control center, allowing you to send, receive, and manage multiple cryptocurrencies securely.

Understanding the Recovery Seed

During setup, Trezor displays a recovery seed—usually 12 or 24 words. This seed is the only backup of your wallet. If you lose both your device and seed, your funds are permanently inaccessible.

Best practices include:

  • Writing it on paper
  • Storing it in a fireproof or metal backup
  • Never entering it on a website or sharing it

Trezor will never ask for your recovery seed online—not during setup or support.

Long-Term Security Tips

After completing setup via Trezor.io/start, keep your wallet secure by:

  • Updating firmware regularly
  • Enabling passphrase protection
  • Verifying addresses on the device screen
  • Keeping your seed phrase offline

These habits ensure long-term safety for your crypto holdings.

Conclusion

Starting your Trezor wallet at Trezor.io/start ensures a secure, authentic, and user-friendly experience. With proper setup and smart security practices, Trezor empowers you to take full control of your digital assets—safely and confidently.
