How to start (3 simple steps)

Follow our short, secure flow. No guesswork — each step keeps your private keys offline and in your control.

1. Visit the official start page

Go to trezor.io/start and choose your device model. Always type the address or use a trusted bookmark.

2. Initialize & create your PIN

Follow the on-screen prompts to initialize your device. Set a firm PIN and never share it. The PIN is required every time the device is connected.

3. Write down your recovery seed

Your recovery seed (12–24 words) is your lifeline. Write it down on paper or a specialized metal backup — never on a cloud note or photo.
