TREZOR.IO/START — Official Quick Start & Setup

Welcome — this page guides you through the official TREZOR.IO/START flow. Download Trezor Suite, install safely, set up your hardware wallet, and move your crypto into secure self-custody with confidence. We keep instructions short, secure, and easy so anyone — beginner or pro — can protect their assets.

Quick start — 4 simple steps

  1. Download the official Trezor Suite: Open the web Suite or get the desktop installer at suite.trezor.io. Always use official domains.
  2. Install the app (desktop optional): Follow installer prompts on Windows, macOS, or Linux. The web Suite also works in modern browsers if you prefer not to install.
  3. Connect and configure your Trezor device: Plug in your device, set a PIN, and generate a recovery seed using the guided setup. The process usually takes about 15 minutes.
  4. Move your assets to your device: Once configured, transfer assets from exchanges or software wallets to your Trezor hardware wallet for secure cold storage.

Why follow TREZOR.IO/START?

The official start flow reduces the most common security mistakes: downloading unverified software, skipping seed backups, or updating firmware from unreliable sources. By following TREZOR.IO/START and using the official Suite, you get verified downloads, firmware checks, and built-in safety checks that protect your funds.

Verified downloads

Only download from trezor.io or suite.trezor.io. These pages provide the official installers and clear checksums so you know the file is authentic.

Guided, secure setup

Trezor Suite guides you step-by-step: firmware checks, PIN creation, and recovery seed generation. The Suite prevents you from skipping critical security steps.

Complete setup: step-by-step details

Download

Visit suite.trezor.io and choose the web Suite or the desktop installer that matches your system. Desktop is recommended for long-term management and improved stability.

Install

Run the downloaded installer and allow any system prompts. If you previously installed a separate Trezor Bridge, uninstall it first to avoid driver conflicts.

Connect

Attach your Trezor device using a quality USB cable and a direct port on your computer. Avoid unpowered hubs when troubleshooting. Suite will detect the device and prompt you to proceed with setup or firmware updates.

Protect

Write your recovery seed down on paper (or a secure backup medium) and store it offline. Trezor will never ask for your seed online — never enter it into a website or a phone.

Troubleshooting — quick fixes

  • Device not detected: try another USB cable, different port, or restart Suite and the device.
  • Leftover Bridge software: uninstall the standalone Bridge if present, then restart the computer.
  • Firmware warnings: update firmware only inside Suite after confirming your seed is backed up.
  • Browser issues: use the desktop Suite or a modern, up-to-date browser for the web Suite.

Security essentials — what to never do

  • Never share your recovery seed or PIN.
  • Never download Suite or installers from unknown mirrors — always use official domains.
  • Never enter your recovery seed on a website or phone — the seed belongs only on your Trezor device and your secure offline backup.
