Welcome! This guide walks you through setting up Trezor Suite and your Trezor hardware wallet — from unboxing to your first secure transaction. Colourful, clear, and designed for humans: follow these steps to keep your crypto safe.
Open the package and check tamper-evident seals. Only use devices bought from official channels. If seals look altered, stop and contact support.
Download Trezor Suite from the official site and install on your desktop or use the web app on a Chromium-based browser. Always verify the download checksum if you want extra assurance.
Use the included USB cable to connect your Trezor. Suite will detect it and guide you through initializing — allow the connection when prompted by your browser or OS.
Choose a secure PIN directly on the device. This prevents unauthorized access if your Trezor is connected to a compromised computer.
Trezor generates a recovery phrase (seed). Write it down on the supplied card — not on a phone or computer. Store it in a safe, offline place.
If prompted, install the latest firmware. Suite verifies firmware authenticity — don’t skip updates that improve security.
Use Suite to add Bitcoin, Ethereum or other coin accounts. You can create multiple accounts and label them for clarity (savings, trading, cold storage).
Test with a small amount first. Verify the receiving address in Suite and confirm it on your Trezor device before sending funds.
Security is simple when you follow a few solid rules. These practical tips reduce the most common risks.
