trezor.io start — Setting up your Trezor Wallet (full walkthrough)

Follow these instructions to install Trezor Suite, initialize the device, create accounts, and conduct your first secure transaction. This guide uses the keyword trezor.io start as the official entry point to the setup flow.

Install Trezor Suite

Go to trezor.io/start, download the official Trezor Suite for your OS, and install it. The Suite is the recommended companion app that helps manage accounts, updates, and transactions with a user-friendly UI.

Initialize your device

  1. Connect the Trezor via USB and open Trezor Suite.
  2. Follow the on-screen prompts: choose Create new or Recover if you already have a seed.
  3. Write your recovery seed on the supplied card — do not photograph or store it digitally.
  4. Optionally, enable a passphrase for extra privacy.

Create accounts & receive funds

In Trezor Suite click Add account, choose a coin (e.g., Bitcoin), and generate a receiving address. Always verify the address on your device screen before sharing it — on-device verification prevents address substitution attacks.

Send funds

To send, enter the recipient address in Suite, choose the amount and fee, then confirm details on the Trezor device. The physical button press is your final chain of trust: no remote code can confirm for you.
