trezor.io/start is the official starting point provided by the creators of Trezor hardware wallets. It’s the first and safest step anyone setting up a Trezor wallet should take — whether you’re brand-new to cryptocurrency or an experienced holder moving into self-custody. (Trezer Help)

At its core, trezor.io/start is not a wallet itself. Instead, it is a guided setup portal that helps you initialize, secure, and begin using your Trezor hardware wallet while minimizing risks from scams, phishing sites, or misconfigurations. (TreZor)

Hardware wallets like Trezor are physical devices designed to store the private keys to your cryptocurrency offline. This means:

Your secret cryptographic keys never touch the internet.
They are shielded from online malware, keyloggers, and hacks.
You remain in full control of your digital assets rather than trusting an online exchange or software wallet. (Trezer Help)

Trezor hardware wallets include popular models such as the Trezor Model One and the Trezor Model T, each with slightly different interfaces but the same core security goals. (Trezer Help)

Below is a general walkthrough of what you’ll encounter when you use the official start page. (TreZor)

1. Visit the Official URL

To avoid scams and phishing sites, always type “trezor.io/start” manually into your browser or scan the QR code included in your hardware wallet packaging. Bookmark it for repeated use. (Trezer Help)

Always confirm you’re on the secure HTTPS site with the padlock icon — this avoids look-alike scam domains. (Trezo Help)

2. Inspect and Connect Your Device

Before you connect anything:

Check that the packaging is sealed and untampered.
Open the box only when you’re ready to start setup.

Once you connect the device with the included USB cable, the official setup will detect your hardware and begin the setup process. (TreZor)

3. Install the Latest Firmware

New Trezor devices often arrive without firmware installed. The first step in the setup flow downloads and installs the official firmware. This ensures your wallet has the latest security updates directly from the manufacturer. (trezor-io-strt-faq.framer.ai)

4. Download and Install Trezor Suite

The Trezor Suite application (desktop or web) is the official software interface:

Manage your accounts
Send and receive cryptocurrency
Monitor your portfolio
Update firmware

Always download it from the links provided on trezor.io/start — never from third-party or social media links. (Trezer Help)

5. Create or Restore Your Wallet

At this point you choose:

Create a new wallet (generates a new recovery seed)
Restore from an existing recovery seed

Your device will generate a recovery seed — typically 12, 18, or 24 words — which acts as the only backup to your wallet and all funds associated with it. (TreZor)

6. Secure Your Recovery Seed

This step is critical: your recovery seed is the single most important piece of information for accessing your crypto. If someone else obtains it, they can control your funds. If you lose it, your funds are gone forever. (TreZor)

Best practices include:

Write the seed down on paper
Store it offline
Do not photograph it
Do not save it digitally or online (TreZor)

7. Set a PIN

You’ll then set a secure PIN that you will enter each time you connect your device. This protects your wallet even if someone physically steals the hardware. (TreZor)

8. Start Using Your Wallet

Once setup is complete, you can:

Receive cryptocurrency by sharing your public address
Send assets securely (with on-device confirmation)
Manage multiple currencies from one place
Check transaction history and balances (Trezer Help)

Before confirming any transaction, always verify the address and details on the Trezor device’s screen — not just on your computer. (TreZor)

● Avoid Phishing Sites

Fake websites can look almost identical to the real thing. By starting only at trezor.io/start, you’re far less likely to fall for these scams. (Trezer Help)

● Keep Private Keys Offline

Trezor hardware ensures keys are generated inside the device and are never exposed to the internet — part of the reason hardware wallets are more secure than software or exchange wallets. (TreZor)

No legitimate setup process (including the official start page) will ever ask for your seed online. If a site or person asks you for your seed, it’s a scam. (Start.io Trezr FAQ)
