  • User-friendly design: Easy instructions for beginners and seasoned users alike.
  • Peace of mind: Learn essential safety measures to protect your digital assets from day one.

Step 1️⃣ – Choose Your Trezor Model

Trezor offers multiple models—Trezor Model One, Trezor Safe 5, Trezor Safe 3—each tailored to different needs:

  • Budget-friendly: Model One provides robust security at an affordable price.
  • Advanced protection: Safe 3 and Safe 5 offer modern features such as touchscreens, passphrase entry, and latest encryption standards.

Once you've purchased your Trezor, move on to trezor.io/start to kick off the setup.

Step 2️⃣ – Download Trezor Suite

From trezor.io/start, you can instantly access Trezor Suite, the official companion app:

  • Desktop version (Windows, macOS, Linux): Includes full features and deeper customization.
  • Web version: For quicker access or on devices not suited for installing apps.

Choose what suits you—desktop for complete control, web app for fast use.

Step 3️⃣ – Install and Connect

After downloading:

  1. Install the app if you chose desktop mode.
  2. Launch the app or select “Continue in browser” if using web.
  3. Plug in your Trezor via USB cable.
  4. Follow the on‑screen prompts on trezor.io/start to install firmware and initialize the device.

This process is guided, secure, and takes around 10–15 minutes.

Step 4️⃣ – Backup and Secure Your Wallet

Security is paramount. During setup:

  • Generate a recovery seed phrase (usually 12–24 words). Write it down in order and store it offline.
  • Learn about passphrase protection: An optional “25th word” layer that greatly enhances security.
  • Use tools like KeepKey Metal or steel backup plates to store your phrase safely.

trezor.io/start helps you understand the significance of offline backups and never storing seeds digitally.

Step 5️⃣ – Add and Manage Cryptocurrencies

Trezor supports 1,000+ cryptocurrencies—from Bitcoin and Ethereum to emerging tokens.

Once your device is set up:

  • Visit trezor.io/start and link your wallet to Trezor Suite.
  • Choose coins to enable.
  • Create accounts to send/receive and explore interactively generated charts and balances.

Pro Tips for an Optimal Experience

  • Use firmware updates regularly through Trezor Suite for security updates and bug fixes.
  • Enable all relevant coins so your device recognizes token types automatically.
  • Explore advanced settings: Passphrases, hidden wallets, coin-specific features like XRP tags or Cardano staking details.
  • Start small: For your first transactions, test with a minor amount before moving larger sums.
