Why start at trezor.io/start?
trezor.io/start is the verified entry point for setting up any Trezor® Wallet. Using the official start page reduces the risk of phishing and ensures you download authentic installers for the Trezor Suite App and Trezor Bridge. Always confirm the URL before downloading software or entering any information—this small step prevents many common scams.
Step-by-step setup (quick overview)
Follow these core steps to complete a safe initialization:
- Open the official page: trezor.io/start.
- Connect your Trezor® Hardware Wallet to your computer with a good USB cable.
- Download and install the Trezor Suite App (or use the web Suite if preferred).
- If required for browser use, install Trezor Bridge.
- Create a PIN, write down your 12–24 word recovery seed exactly as shown, and store it offline.
Trezor Suite & Bridge — what they are
The Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web application for managing coins, transactions and device settings. The Trezor Bridge is a lightweight helper that enables secure communication between your browser and the hardware device. Use the Suite for firmware updates and device configuration to avoid “Can’t verify Trezor Wallet” errors.
Troubleshooting common login issues
During setup you may encounter messages like Trezor login not working, Unable to login Trezor, or Error Connecting Trezor Account. Typical fixes include:
- Reinstall or update Trezor Suite and Trezor Bridge.
- Try a different USB cable or port (avoid passive hubs during setup).
- Use the desktop Suite if the browser-based Suite shows “Trezor Suite App not Working.”
- Temporarily disable extensions that manage USB devices or block scripts.
Account recovery & 2FA model
If you lose access to your device, use your recovery seed to restore accounts through the Suite. Unlike centralized services, there is no universal Trezor 2FA reset — Trezor® relies on on-device PINs and the seed phrase. Keep your seed offline and secure; without it, recovery is not possible.
When to contact support
If problems persist after standard troubleshooting—especially hardware errors, persistent login failures, or firmware issues—consult the Trezor Help Center for official guides, or open a support request there. Use only official channels to avoid impersonators.
