Secure your cryptocurrencies in minutes with the world's most trusted hardware wallet
Carefully unbox your Trezor device and ensure all components are present: the Trezor device itself, USB-C cable, recovery seed cards, and lanyard. Check the holographic seal to verify the authenticity of your device—your first layer of security. This physical verification ensures your device hasn't been tampered with during shipping.
Download and install Trezor Suite from the official website trezor.io/start. Connect your Trezor device to your computer using the provided USB cable. Always ensure you are using the genuine Trezor Suite application, never third-party software. The desktop app provides enhanced security features not available in the web version.
Follow the on-screen instructions in Trezor Suite to initialize your device. You will be prompted to install the latest firmware—this is crucial for security updates and new features. Never skip firmware updates as they often contain critical security patches that protect your assets from newly discovered vulnerabilities.
This is the most critical security step. Your device will generate a unique recovery seed—typically 12, 18, or 24 words. Write these words down in exact order on the provided recovery seed cards. Store them in multiple secure locations, never digitally. This seed is your ultimate backup—if you lose your device, these words can restore your entire wallet on a new Trezor.
Add an extra layer of security with a PIN code. The Trezor device will prompt you to enter a PIN using its randomized number display—this prevents keyloggers from capturing your input. Choose a PIN you'll remember but that others cannot easily guess. The device will wipe itself after multiple incorrect attempts, protecting your funds from physical theft.
