Step 1: Prepare Your Trezor Device
First things first, make sure you have your Trezor hardware wallet handy. If you haven’t already purchased one, you can do so from the official Trezor store. Once you have your device, plug it into your computer or mobile device using the provided USB cable.
Step 2: Access Trezor.io/start
Open your web browser and navigate to Trezor.io/start. This is the official portal where you will begin the setup process. The Trezor.io/start page is designed to guide you through each step of the initialization.
Step 3: Install Trezor Bridge or Trezor Suite
To interact with your Trezor hardware wallet, you need to install the necessary software. Depending on your device, you may be prompted to install either Trezor Bridge or Trezor Suite.
Trezor Bridge: This is a lightweight software that allows your browser to communicate with your Trezor wallet. You can download Trezor Bridge from the official download page.
Trezor Suite: For a more comprehensive interface, you might prefer Trezor Suite. This is a standalone application that provides an enhanced user experience. It can be downloaded from the Trezor Suite download page.
Step 4: Initialize Your Trezor Wallet
After installing the required software, you’ll be guided through the initialization process. This includes creating a new wallet, generating a recovery seed, and setting a PIN code. Your recovery seed is crucial—write it down and store it securely. This seed will be necessary to recover your wallet in case of loss or theft.
Step 5: Secure Your Recovery Seed
It’s vital to keep your recovery seed safe. Store it in a secure location, away from prying eyes. If your seed is compromised, so is your wallet. For more tips on securing your recovery seed, refer to Trezor’s official security guidelines.

Trezor supports various cryptocurrencies and provides advanced security features like two-factor authentication (2FA) and passphrase protection.
