Welcome to the official Trezór.io/Start® guide. This is your first step to activating a new Trezór hardware wallet. By following this walkthrough, you will prepare your wallet, protect your recovery phrase, and learn the safest way to send and receive cryptocurrency.
The official Trezór.io/Start® portal protects new users from fraud and unofficial software. Beginning here ensures your wallet is genuine, your firmware is authentic, and your crypto journey starts securely. It is always recommended to avoid third-party links or unofficial downloads.
Take your new Trezór device out of the box and connect it to your computer with the original cable. Once connected, open Trezór.io/Start®. You’ll be guided to install Trezór Suite, the companion application that manages your accounts and transactions.
On the first launch, your wallet will require firmware installation. Confirm this update directly on the Trezór screen. Installing firmware ensures your device runs the latest verified software and protects you from potential tampering.
During wallet creation, your device will display a recovery seed phrase. Carefully write these words down on the recovery card provided. Never save the seed on a phone, computer, or online document. This backup is the only way to restore your wallet if the device is ever lost or damaged.
Set up a secure PIN code directly on your device. The PIN prevents unauthorized use if your hardware wallet falls into the wrong hands. Always confirm the digits on the device itself to avoid software-level tampering.
Once secured, open Trezór Suite and add accounts for Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other supported assets. Each account provides an organized view of balances, history, and pending transactions.
To receive, generate a wallet address in Trezór Suite and verify it on the device screen. To send, enter the recipient address and confirm every detail directly on your Trezór. This on-screen verification prevents hackers from swapping addresses in the background.
Is Trezór.io/Start® the only safe way to set up? Yes. It’s the official gateway to begin with Trezór devices.
Can I recover my wallet without the recovery phrase? No. The recovery seed is the only method to restore access to your funds.
Why confirm on the device screen? The device screen cannot be altered by malware, which ensures you are approving the correct transaction.
