If you’ve purchased a Trezor hardware wallet — such as the Trezor Model One or Trezor Model T — you’re already on the right path to securing your cryptocurrency. But before you can start using your device, it’s essential to set it up properly. That’s where trezor.io/start comes in.

This is the official setup portal for all Trezor wallets and your safest entry point into the world of crypto self-custody.

Why Use Trezor.io/Start?

vyvvTrezor.io/start is the only trusted website for setting up your Trezor wallet securely. In the crypto world, phishing websites and fake apps are everywhere. Going directly to trezor.io/start ensures you’re using legitimate software, avoiding malware, and protecting your assets right from the beginning.

What You’ll Need Before You Start

Before heading to the setup page, make sure you have the following:

A new, unopened Trezor hardware wallet

A USB cable to connect the wallet to your computer

A desktop or laptop with internet access

A pen and paper to write down your recovery seed

Once you have these, go to trezor.io/start to begin the guided process.

Step-by-Step: Setting Up Your Trezor

1. Download Trezor Suite

The setup begins by downloading Trezor Suite, the official software interface for your wallet. It's available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Trezor Suite allows you to manage your crypto, track your portfolio, and interact with blockchain apps.

2. Connect Your Device

Plug your Trezor into your computer using the USB cable. Trezor Suite will automatically detect your device and guide you through the setup process.

3. Install Firmware

If your device is brand new, it may not have any firmware installed. Trezor.io/start will prompt you to install the latest official firmware securely.

4. Create a New Wallet

You’ll be given the option to create a new wallet. This is when your 24-word recovery seed will be displayed. Write this down on paper — never store it digitally — and keep it in a safe place. This seed is the only way to recover your funds if you lose access to your wallet.

5. Set a PIN

Next, you’ll set a secure PIN to protect your wallet from unauthorized access.
