  • Download the Trezor Suite desktop or browser application
  • Install the latest firmware for your device
  • Create a new wallet or recover an existing one

Step-by-Step: What Happens During Setup

1. Connect Your Trezor Device

Plug your Trezor Model T or Trezor One into your computer using the provided USB cable. The device will guide you with clear on-screen messages.

2. Open Trezor.io/Start

Once you reach the page, select your device model. You’ll be prompted to install the official Trezor Suite application, which is required for setup and daily use.

3. Install or Update Firmware

New devices require firmware installation before use. This ensures your device is running the latest, most secure version available.

4. Create a New Wallet

Choose a new wallet setup if this is your first time. Trezor Suite will generate your wallet and prepare the recovery seed process.

5. Secure Your Recovery Seed

Your device will display a sequence of words known as the recovery seed.
This is the most important part of the setup:

  • Write the words down on paper
  • Keep them offline and stored safely
  • Never take a photo or share them with anyone

This seed is the only way to recover your wallet if your device is lost or damaged.

6. Access the Trezor Suite Dashboard

Once set up, you can access your dashboard where you can:

  • View balances
  • Send and receive transactions
  • Swap supported assets
  • Activate optional security features
  • Customize your wallet settings

Security Tips for New Users

  • Always begin at Trezor.io/Start, not any third-party website.
  • Keep your recovery seed private and offline.
  • Enable advanced protections such as passphrases and PIN codes.
  • Never share device screenshots, recovery words, or login information with anyone.
