Welcome — quick start and essential guidance
This page collects the essential steps and best practices to set up, secure, and use your Trezor hardware wallet. Follow the short checklist below before connecting to third-party services.
Getting started — first-time setup
Verify tamper-evidence and packaging. Only proceed if seals and packaging look intact.
Always download Trezor Suite or the recommended start tools from the official domain. Avoid third-party installers.
Generate a recovery phrase offline, write it down on the provided card, and store it securely. Never photograph or store digitally.
Pick a strong, memorable PIN. Use a PIN protector if available to prevent shoulder-surfing.
Security best practices
Security is layered — device, software, and personal habits. Treat your recovery phrase as the highest-value secret. If compromised, funds can be irreversibly lost.
- Keep recovery offline and split between secure locations when appropriate.
- Use passphrase protection for extra accounts — but understand the tradeoffs.
- Verify addresses on the device screen before confirming transactions.
