Trezor @Login – The Official Wallet

Getting started — the quick path

Welcome! This guide walks you through the essential steps to initialize your Trezor device safely, install Trezor Suite, recover or create a seed, and make your first transaction. Follow each step carefully — security starts with the setup.

1Buy genuine hardware

Purchase only from the official Trezor store or authorized resellers. Check seals and packaging for tampering — if anything looks unusual, stop and contact support.
2Download Trezor Suite

Visit suite.trezor.io (or use the official app) and download the latest Trezor Suite for your platform (Windows, macOS, Linux). Do not use third-party links or attachments.
3Initialize your Trezor

Connect the device to your computer or phone and follow the on-device prompts. You’ll choose to create a new wallet or recover an existing seed phrase. Do this in private, offline if possible.
4Write down your recovery seed

Trezor will show a 12, 18, or 24-word seed on the device. Write it down on the included recovery card or other physical medium. Never store the seed digitally or share it. This seed is the ultimate backup of your funds.
5Set a PIN and password

Choose a PIN to unlock your device. Optionally use a passphrase (also called an additional word) for extra security — but remember, loss of passphrase = loss of access.
6Send a small test transaction

Before moving large amounts, send a small test transfer to confirm everything works: addresses displayed on your Trezor must match those shown in Trezor Suite.

Important: Trezor devices never ask for your recovery seed in software. If prompted to enter your seed into a website or app, treat it as a phishing attempt and disconnect immediately.

Security features that matter

🔒

Isolated private keys

Private keys are generated and stored on the device and never leave it. All transaction signing happens inside the hardware for maximum safety.

📄

Recovery seed

The recovery phrase allows you to restore your wallet to a new Trezor or compatible wallet if the device is lost or damaged.

🧾

Open source & auditable

Trezor firmware and tools are open source. This transparency helps independent researchers audit the device and improves long-term trust.

Security best practices

Keep your recovery seed offline and in multiple secure locations if necessary (e.g., safe deposit box).
Never reveal seed words, PIN, or passphrase to anyone — not even support staff.
Use a passphrase only if you understand the risks: it makes recovery harder but more private.
Verify every address on your Trezor display before confirming a transaction.
Keep your device firmware and Trezor Suite up to date.

Frequently asked questions

Can I recover my funds on another wallet?: Yes. Your recovery seed follows industry standards (BIP39/BIP44 etc.) and can be used with compatible wallets. Exercise caution and use trusted software when importing seeds.
What if I lose my Trezor?: If you have your recovery seed, you can restore funds to a new device. If you lose the seed and the device, funds cannot be recovered.
Is Trezor safe for beginners?: Yes — Trezor Suite simplifies many steps and we recommend following the guided setup. Take your time with seed backup and PIN creation; these are the most critical parts.
