Check the address and transaction details on your Trezor screen—not only on your computer.
A clearer way to get started
A practical, independent guide to getting started with your Trezor hardware wallet—securely, confidently, and on your terms.
A Trezor device helps you keep control of your crypto by keeping private keys offline. Getting started means setting up the device, pairing it with trusted wallet software, then confirming important actions on the device itself.
There is no universal “Trezor login” page where you enter your recovery phrase. Use the official Trezor website and verified Trezor Suite downloads. Take a moment to check the URL before connecting.

YOUR QUICK START
Simple principles for device setup, safer transactions, and responsible ownership.
A secure start is less about signing in and more about setting up the right way. Your hardware wallet keeps private keys offline while you use trusted software to view balances and prepare transactions.
Begin by checking that your device and its packaging look intact. Follow the instructions on the official Trezor start page, install Trezor Suite only from a verified source, and connect your device when prompted. During setup, create a PIN and carefully record your recovery backup offline. Store it somewhere private and separate from your device. Never photograph it, paste it into a website, or share it with anyone—not even someone claiming to be support.
When managing a portfolio, use Suite to review supported assets and transaction history, but remember that displayed values can change quickly. Before sending funds, check the destination address, network, and amount on your Trezor’s own screen. Confirm only when every detail matches what you intended. This final device check helps protect you from misleading on-screen information.
Keep your device firmware and software current using official guidance. For extra privacy, consider what public blockchain activity can reveal and avoid linking addresses unnecessarily. A hardware wallet is a useful layer of protection, not a substitute for careful decisions: learn about risks, make backups thoughtfully, and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
