Welcome to Trèzor.io/start — the official starting point to initialize and protect your digital assets. This guide walks you through downloading Trezor Suite, connecting your Trezor Model T or One, and setting up PIN and recovery features. Whether you hold Bitcoin, Ethereum, or thousands of ERC-20 tokens, Trezor ensures your assets remain offline and safe from online attacks.
Setting up your Trezor hardware wallet is simple. Visit Trezor.io/start, connect your device, and install the official Trezor Suite desktop or web app. Once installed, you’ll be prompted to create a new wallet or recover an existing one. This process ensures your private keys are generated and stored within your device — never on any external server. Trezor’s core philosophy is decentralization, user ownership, and transparency.
Plug in your Trezor device using the provided USB cable. The device screen will guide you through initial trust verification and connection authorization. Trezor uses a unique handshake to confirm authenticity.
Download Trezor Suite from the official site. The Suite acts as a control panel for your crypto — view balances, manage transactions, and integrate exchanges securely within one interface.
Once initialized, Trezor will display a 12- or 24-word recovery seed. Write it down on paper (never digitally). This seed is your backup to restore the wallet if your device is lost or damaged.
Trèzor.io/start is designed to onboard new users safely. It verifies that you are using official firmware, provides direct download links, and educates users about phishing protection. Every version of the Suite and Bridge is cryptographically signed and verified by SatoshiLabs. The site avoids external scripts, trackers, and telemetry to maintain privacy and data integrity.
Always confirm that your browser shows a valid SSL certificate for trezor.io. Avoid third-party installers. Once set up, enable advanced settings like passphrases, Tor routing, and coin-specific privacy options. The Suite’s dashboard includes a “Privacy Mode” toggle that anonymizes transaction metadata.
For convenience, Trezor also supports Trezor Bridge for browser communication, allowing Chrome, Firefox, and Edge to interact directly with your device. The combination of hardware isolation and Suite’s encryption ensures that no malicious actor can compromise your funds.
