A calm start for self-custody
Trezor.io/Start is the official place to begin setting up a Trezor hardware wallet. This independent guide helps you prepare, recognize the genuine destination, and move through the first steps with care—without asking for private information.
Independent information. Not an official Trezor website.
A thoughtful sequence
Take your time. The safest setup is the one you understand, completed directly on your own device.
Type trezor.io/start into your browser or use the verified official link on this page. Check the spelling and domain before continuing. Avoid sponsored search results, unsolicited messages, and links from strangers. A lock icon alone does not prove a site is genuine.
Follow the instructions for the exact device you own. The official setup flow will guide you to the appropriate software and explain how to connect your wallet. Download software only from Trezor’s own website or its verified app listing. Never install a tool sent to you in a direct message.
Your recovery seed is the backup to your wallet, not a password for customer support. Write it down only as your device instructs and store it privately. No legitimate support agent needs these words. Do not type them into a website, share them in chat, photograph them, or enter them into this guide.
A simple rule worth keeping
Anyone who asks you to reveal your recovery words is asking for access to your funds. Trezor support will never need your seed. Pause if a page asks you to enter it, if a person pressures you to act quickly, or if anything about the instructions feels unexpected. Close that page and navigate to the official site yourself.
Read Trezor’s official support guidanceBefore you begin
A little preparation makes the process feel less hurried. Find a quiet place, set aside a few uninterrupted minutes, and keep your hardware wallet and its packaging nearby. Use a trusted computer or phone with an up-to-date browser, and make sure you can recognize your own device model.
Follow each prompt on the device itself as well as the official setup page. Read before confirming; the device screen is an important part of checking what you are approving. If you are unsure whether a step is authentic, stop and consult official Trezor support through its website—not a number or link sent by an unknown person.
Choose a secure, private place for your written backup. Keep it away from cameras, cloud storage, email, shared documents, and anyone who should not have control of your wallet. A safe setup is built on small, deliberate choices rather than speed.

A few quick answers
No. This is an independent informational guide and is not affiliated with Trezor. The official setup page is trezor.io/start; check the address carefully before opening it.
No. Never share your recovery seed with a website, support agent, or person contacting you. Follow the instructions on your device, and keep the backup private and offline.
Stop rather than guessing. Confirm the model and consult support from the official Trezor support site. Do not rely on unsolicited troubleshooting links or messages.
