1. Download Trezor Suite
Download the Trezor Suite desktop app for the best experience or choose the web app if you prefer a browser setup. Always download from the official domain and verify the domain in your browser address bar before proceeding.
Get started with your Trezor device
Download Trezor Suite, initialize your device, secure your recovery, and transfer assets — step-by-step onboarding for new hardware wallet users.
Overview — what to expect
This start guide walks you through the official onboarding flow: installing the Trezor Suite application (desktop or web), connecting your hardware device, creating a secure recovery, and moving funds safely. Allow about 10–20 minutes to complete the setup.
2. Install and open Trezor Suite
Install the application (macOS, Windows, or Linux). Open Trezor Suite and follow the on-screen prompts. If you use the web app, confirm the secure domain and allow the necessary browser permissions to detect your device.
3. Set up your Trezor device
Connect your Trezor to the computer with the supplied USB cable. Create a new wallet: choose a PIN, confirm it on the device, and generate your recovery phrase. Write down the recovery words offline — never store them digitally.
Important: your recovery seed is the only reliable backup. If lost, funds cannot be recovered. Keep it offline and private.
4. Move coins to your Trezor
After initialization, receive small test amounts first to confirm addresses. Then transfer larger balances. Use the Trezor Suite address scanner or copy the address directly and always confirm the address on the hardware device screen before sending.
5. Learn and maintain good security
Keep Trezor Suite updated, verify firmware upgrades via the app, and consult the knowledge base for advanced features: passphrase protection, multiple accounts, and third-party integrations (e.g., coin-specific wallets and DeFi interfaces).
Where to get help
If you prefer live assistance, book an expert onboarding session or contact support. For recovery or troubleshooting, follow the official knowledge base articles rather than third-party guides.
