How to Set Up Your Trezor Device
Welcome to the official Trezor onboarding guide. Setting up your device properly ensures your cryptocurrencies stay safe against digital threats.
All Trezor wallets keep your private keys offline, away from hackers and phishing attempts. Using Trezor Suite on your computer, you can easily manage coins, tokens, and accounts with peace of mind.
Before you begin, make sure you have your Trezor device, a USB cable, and an internet‑connected computer. Only purchase products directly from official Trezor.io or authorized resellers for guaranteed safety.
The setup process includes: installing Trezor Bridge, connecting your device, creating a wallet, generating a 12–24 word recovery seed, and setting up a personal PIN code. These steps balance ease of use with maximum protection.
⚠️ Keep your recovery seed private: write it down on paper and store it securely. Never take digital photos or save it online.
Once ready, you can log into Trezor Suite to send and receive cryptocurrencies, organize your accounts, and install firmware updates to stay secure.
