Welcome to the Trezor Getting Started Hub — a focused walkthrough to initialize your Trezor hardware wallet the secure way. Whether you're new to hardware wallets or migrating your keys to cold storage, the official start page at trezor.io/start hosts verified firmware, downloads, and setup guides.

Why use a Trezor device?

Trezor devices keep your private keys separate from internet-connected systems. Transactions are confirmed on-device so your keys never need to be exposed. For full details and recommended practices, consult trezor.io/start.

Key isolation
Private keys stay on the device.
Open-source
Firmware and tools are transparent and auditable.
Official updates
Firmware and Suite downloads available at trezor.io/start.
Recovery seed
A recovery seed restores access if a device is lost.

Quick setup checklist

  1. Purchase from the official store or authorized resellers (links at trezor.io/start).
  2. Download Trezor Suite from trezor.io/start and install the application.
  3. Initialize your device, set a PIN, and write your recovery seed on a secure medium (paper or metal backup).
  4. Install any optional integrations and add accounts in Trezor Suite.
  5. Send a small test transaction to confirm everything works.

Security best practices

Never reveal your recovery seed, never type it into a website, and always verify transaction details on the device screen. Keep firmware up to date via trezor.io/start and only download official software.

Mobile vs Desktop

Trezor Suite is primarily desktop-first; mobile support varies by model and integration. For the latest compatibility notes, see the official start page.

Troubleshooting common issues

If Trezor Suite does not detect your device, try a different USB cable, ensure the device is unlocked, and confirm you've downloaded the Suite from trezor.io/start. For firmware or restore issues follow the official guides available on the start page.

Advanced setups

Advanced users can use Trezor in multisig setups, integrate with third-party wallets, or use offline signing workflows. Always confirm contract and transaction data on-device when interacting with dapps.
