Security First
Did you know? Phishing attacks are the #1 cause of crypto loss. Always verify you are on the official domain trezor.io before entering any sensitive information. Never share your recovery seed online.
Learn about SecuritySetting Up Your Device
Follow these precise steps to initialize your Trezor Model One, Model T, or Safe 3.
Unbox & Inspect
Before connecting anything, inspect the packaging. Your Trezor should arrive with a tamper-evident hologram over the USB port (Model One) or on the box opening (Model T/Safe 3). If this seal is broken or looks manipulated, do not use the device and contact support immediately.
Download Trezor Suite
Open your browser and navigate to trezor.io/start. Download the Trezor Suite desktop application for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux). Avoid using web-based wallets for initial setup if possible for added security.
Connect & Install Firmware
Connect your Trezor to your computer using the provided USB cable. Open Trezor Suite. Your device ships without firmware installed to ensure you get the latest version. Follow the prompt to install the latest firmware.
Create Wallet & Backup
Select "Create New Wallet". The device will generate a unique Recovery Seed (12-24 words). Write these words down on the provided recovery cards. NEVER store this seed digitally or take a photo of it.
Set a PIN
Protect your physical device by setting a strong PIN code. This prevents unauthorized access if your device is lost or stolen. You will need to enter this PIN every time you connect your Trezor to a computer.
