Trêzor.io/start® — Starting Up Your Device

Welcome to the official guide for setting up your Trezor® hardware wallet. This page walks you through everything you need to know to initialize, secure, and confidently use your device for long-term crypto protection.

Why Start at Trêzor.io/start®?

Trêzor.io/start® is the recommended entry point for all new Trezor® device owners. Rather than relying on third-party tutorials or outdated instructions, this official onboarding path ensures your wallet is configured securely, correctly, and with the latest firmware.

Starting your device properly is more than a technical task—it’s the foundation of your digital asset security. Every step completed here directly contributes to safeguarding your private keys, transactions, and future investments.

By beginning at Trêzor.io/start®, users benefit from:

Unboxing Your Trezor® Device

When you open your Trezor® package, you should immediately inspect the contents. Trezor devices are shipped with tamper-evident seals that protect against unauthorized access before delivery.

A proper unboxing ensures your device has not been compromised. If anything looks damaged or altered, it is critical to stop the setup process and contact official support before proceeding.

Connecting Your Device Securely

After verifying the package, connect your Trezor® device to your computer using the provided USB cable. For maximum security, use a private computer with updated software and a trusted internet connection.

Once connected, navigate directly to Trêzor.io/start® using your web browser. Avoid search engine ads or unofficial links, as phishing sites may imitate the setup process.

Security tip: Never connect your Trezor® to a public computer or shared network during initial setup.

Starting Up Your Device – Step by Step

Step 1: Device Detection

Your browser will recognize the Trezor® device automatically. You will be prompted to begin initialization if this is your first time using the wallet.

Step 2: Firmware Installation

New devices ship without firmware. Installing official firmware ensures authenticity and activates security features.

Step 3: Wallet Creation

Create a new wallet directly on the device. This process generates private keys offline, keeping them protected from online threats.

Step 4: Recovery Seed Backup

Write down the recovery seed words in the correct order. This is the only way to restore your wallet if the device is lost or damaged.

Understanding the Recovery Seed

The recovery seed is the most important security element of your Trezor® wallet. It represents a human-readable version of your private keys and must be protected at all costs.

Trezor® will never ask you to enter your recovery seed on a website, email, or phone call. Only the physical device itself should ever be used for seed verification.

Setting a Strong PIN

A PIN adds an additional layer of protection by preventing unauthorized physical access to your Trezor® device.

The randomized keypad displayed on your screen ensures that even compromised computers cannot log your PIN inputs.

Best practice: Choose a PIN that is unique, difficult to guess, and never reused across other devices.

Accessing Your Wallet Interface

After setup, your Trezor® wallet interface becomes your control center. From here, you can manage assets, view balances, send transactions, and monitor portfolio activity.

The interface is designed for clarity, transparency, and security—giving both beginners and advanced users confidence.

Long-Term Security Recommendations

Starting your device is only the beginning. Maintaining strong security habits ensures your digital assets remain protected over time.

Regular updates, cautious online behavior, and offline backups form the backbone of responsible crypto ownership.
