Trezor Start

Securely manage and start your crypto journey

Welcome to Trezor Start — set up your hardware wallet the easy way

Trezor Start helps you initialize, secure and use your Trezor device. This page guides you through best practices for seed safety, firmware updates, and everyday use — without sacrificing usability.

Offline keys

Private keys never leave your device — sign transactions on the Trezor itself.

Open-source

Transparent firmware and community-reviewed codebase for stronger security.

Multi-coin

Supports many cryptocurrencies and standards (BTC, ETH, tokens and more).

1 — Unbox & inspect

Verify tamper-evident packaging and avoid buying from untrusted resellers.

2 — Initialize

Create a new seed on the device — never enter it on a computer. Write the seed down on the included card.

3 — Firmware

Always update to the latest firmware from the official site before transacting.

4 — Use securely

Double-check addresses on the device screen, set a PIN, and keep backups safely stored.

Setup checklist

  1. Verify packaging and serial number.
  2. Connect device and follow on-screen prompts.
  3. Create PIN and write down the seed phrase offline.
  4. Store your seed in at least two secure locations.
  5. Verify a test transaction with a small amount first.
