Get started with your Trezor (trezor.io/start)

A concise HTML guide to walk you through the official trezor.io/start flow: download the Trezor Suite, install (or use the web app), set up the hardware, and securely move funds.

1. Download Trezor Suite

Visit the official source to download the Trezor Suite desktop app or open the web app if you prefer not to install software. The desktop app provides the most complete experience, while the web app works for quick setups and checks.

2. Install the Trezor Suite app

If you chose the desktop app, run the installer and follow on-screen prompts. Installing the desktop Suite is optional for web app users, but recommended for regular management and advanced features.

3. Set up your Trezor

Plug your Trezor device into the computer and follow the guided setup in Trezor Suite (or web app). This includes initializing the device, recording the recovery seed, and creating a device PIN. Expect this to take about 10–20 minutes for first-time users.

4. Move your coins

After setup, transfer assets from exchanges or hot wallets to your Trezor-managed addresses. Double-check address fingerprints and always verify the receiving address on the Trezor device screen before sending funds.

5. Expert onboarding (optional)

If you prefer guided assistance, Trezor offers expert onboarding sessions that walk you through device setup and best practices. An expert session can speed up setup and help avoid common mistakes.

Security & recovery best practices

Security tip: Keep your recovery seed offline and never share it. Use a secure PIN on the device, enable firmware updates only from official sources, and consider a metal backup for your recovery seed for durability.
