Welcome to the gateway of secure crypto management — your journey begins at Trezor.io/start. This official launchpad simplifies the initialization of your Trezor® hardware wallet, guiding you through each pivotal stage: from installing essential software and establishing a reliable connection to safeguarding your recovery credentials. Whether you're a crypto novice or a seasoned user, this streamlined onboarding ensures you unlock full control over your digital assets with confidence.
At the core of reliable setup lies authenticity. By relying exclusively on Trezor.io/start, you avoid counterfeit tools, sketchy links, or phishing traps that jeopardize your private keys. This portal directs you to the officially verified downloads of components like Trezor Suite and Trezor Bridge, all curated by the trusted creators at SatoshiLabs.
It also walks you through device configuration, including initialization, firmware upgrades, and secure return procedures—all without risking your seed phrase or introducing vulnerabilities.
The centerpiece of your device management, Trezor Suite is the desktop application (available for Windows, macOS, and Linux) that brings your crypto portfolio to life. It’s packed with intuitive dashboards, transaction tools, multi-asset support, and privacy features. A streamlined web version is also available through your browser via Trezor Bridge.
Think of Trezor Bridge as the translator between your Trezor hardware and web interfaces. It’s a lightweight, open-source background service that facilitates safe browser communication—without giving access to sensitive data like your seed or private keys. If you prefer the browser version of Suite, installing Bridge ensures seamless functionality.
Connect your Trezor device to your computer via USB and follow prompts to set up your wallet. If you're using the desktop Suite, Bridge isn’t needed—the app embeds all necessary connectivity. However, for web use, Bridge is essential to enable secure operations between browser and device.
When logging in with your device (whether via Trezor Suite or through a browser interface), authentication occurs directly on the hardware. You'll confirm actions using your PIN and, optionally, a passphrase. This physical confirmation ensures no software or even third-party can access your funds without explicit approval from you—secure login starts and ends at the hardware level.
No—when you use the desktop version of Trezor Suite, it already incorporates everything needed to connect to your Trezor device, so Trezor Login will work smoothly without installing Bridge.
The web version runs within your browser and requires Trezor Bridge to connect. The desktop Trezor Suite App is standalone—no browser or Bridge needed—and generally offers better performance and privacy.
Your seed phrase is the only way to recover your wallet if your device is lost or damaged. Without it, funds cannot be restored. Always store it securely and offline.
Yes—this official portal directs you to both the desktop Suite download and instructions to use the Suite Web interface. Everything useful is centralized at Trezor.io/start.
Absolutely. With your private keys stored offline on the Trezor device, and every action requiring physical confirmation on the hardware, your assets remain secure—even if your computer or browser is compromised.
