How It Works

Getting started with Trezor is simple. Follow these six comprehensive steps to secure your cryptocurrency.

Download Trezor Suite App

Begin your journey to secure cryptocurrency storage by downloading the official Trezor Suite application. This powerful desktop software provides the best user experience with advanced features for managing your digital assets. Alternatively, you can access the web-based version directly through your browser for quick setup and immediate access.

Install the Application

Once downloaded, install the Trezor Suite app on your computer following the simple installation wizard. The desktop application offers enhanced security features and offline transaction signing capabilities. Web app users can skip this step and proceed directly to connecting their device through their preferred browser.

Set Up Your Trezor Device

Connect your Trezor hardware wallet to your computer using the provided USB cable. Follow the on-screen instructions carefully to initialize your device. You will create a new wallet or recover an existing one using your recovery seed. This critical step establishes the foundation of your cryptocurrency security, ensuring only you have access to your digital assets.

Secure Your Recovery Seed

Your Trezor device will generate a unique 12 or 24-word recovery seed phrase. Write this down on the provided recovery card and store it in a secure, offline location. Never share your recovery seed with anyone or store it digitally. This seed is the master key to your cryptocurrency and the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged.

Set a Strong PIN

Create a robust PIN code to protect your Trezor device from unauthorized access. The PIN entry uses a randomized number grid displayed on the device screen, preventing keylogger attacks. Choose a PIN that is memorable to you but difficult for others to guess. You can change this PIN later through the device settings if needed.

Move Your Cryptocurrency

With your Trezor now fully configured, you are ready to protect your digital assets. Transfer your cryptocurrency from exchanges or other wallets to your new Trezor addresses. Each transaction must be confirmed on the device itself, ensuring that no malware on your computer can compromise your funds. Check our comprehensive guide to learn how to safely transfer assets from exchanges to your hardware wallet.
