This colourful, friendly guide walks you through the official setup of your Trezor hardware wallet and Trezor Suite. Whether you’re unboxing for the first time or restoring a wallet, follow these clear steps to protect your crypto with confidence.
Only accept devices from the official Trezor store or authorized resellers. Check seals and packaging for tamper evidence before proceeding.
Visit the official site to download the desktop app or use the web app on Chromium browsers. Verify the download if you want extra assurance.
Use the provided USB cable. Suite will detect the device and guide you through initializing a new wallet or restoring from a seed.
Choose a PIN on the device to protect access. Never type your PIN into a computer—always use the hardware buttons.
Write down the recovery phrase on the supplied card. Store it offline and secure—this is the only way to restore your wallet.
Install official firmware via Suite. Firmware ensures the device contains the latest security fixes and features.
Add Bitcoin, Ethereum, and token accounts inside Suite. Label accounts to organize savings, spending, and trading wallets.
Receive a small test amount to verify everything. Confirm addresses on-device before sharing them to avoid address-hijacking malware.
Follow these core practices to minimize risk—simple rules that protect most users.
Use a dedicated computer for initial setup if possible, and keep your OS and browser updated. Consider metal seed storage for long-term holdings.
Test small — always send a tiny amount on your first transaction to confirm everything works as expected.
Keep software verified — check hashes of downloads and prefer reproducible builds where available.
Trezor code and firmware are open-source so the community can inspect and improve security.
Verify that the binary you downloaded matches the source through reproducible builds.
