This guide will walk you through the essential steps to get started with Trezor and make the most out of your new device.

Step 1: Visit Trezor.io/start

The first step in setting up your Trezor wallet is to visit Trezor.io/start. This is the official setup page where you'll find detailed instructions and necessary software downloads to configure your device. Make sure to access this page from a secure, trusted device to ensure your setup process is safe.

Step 2: Connect Your Trezor Device

Once you’ve reached the setup page, connect your Trezor hardware wallet to your computer using the provided USB cable. Ensure that the connection is secure and that your device is properly powered. The Trezor setup wizard will guide you through the initial setup process, including the installation of the Trezor Bridge software, which is essential for connecting your wallet to your browser.

Step 3: Install Trezor Bridge

Trezor Bridge is a vital component that allows your Trezor wallet to communicate with your browser. You can download and install Trezor Bridge directly from the Trezor.io/start page. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. This software ensures a seamless and secure connection between your hardware wallet and your online accounts.

Step 4: Initialize Your Wallet

After installing Trezor Bridge, return to the Trezor setup page to initialize your wallet. You will be prompted to choose a secure PIN for your wallet.

Step 5: Backup Your Recovery Seed

During the setup, you’ll be provided with a recovery seed, a series of words that act as a backup in case your device is lost or damaged. Write down this seed on a piece of paper and store it in a safe, secure location. This recovery seed is your lifeline for recovering your wallet if needed, so treat it with the utmost importance.

Step 6: Access Your Wallet

With your Trezor wallet set up and backed up, you can now access your wallet’s features. Visit Trezor.io to log in and start managing your cryptocurrency.
