Step-by-step setup ๐Ÿš€

1
Connect your Trezor

Plug it into your computer with the supplied USB cable. Open a browser and visit trezor.io/start to begin.

2
Install Trezor firmware

If prompted, install the latest firmware on the device. This step ensures your device has the newest security fixes and features.

3
Create a new wallet

Follow the guided flow to create a new wallet. The device will generate a recovery seed โ€” write this down on the provided card and store it safely (consider a metal backup for long-term security).

4
Set a PIN

Choose a PIN to lock physical access to the device. Memorize it; a lost PIN can require device wipe and seed recovery.

5
Verify & finish

Confirm your seed by following prompts. Once complete, your Trezor will be ready to receive funds or connect with Trezor Suite for management.

Common questions โ“
