Official Trezor Login | Official Setup Guide

Overview

Purpose & scope

This presentation-style guide walks a user through unboxing, initial connection, firmware verification, wallet creation or restoration, and the secure login process for a Trezor device. Each section is designed to be presented on its own slide during a live demo or used as a printable guide. Emphasis is placed on security best practices and practical troubleshooting tips.

Before you start

Requirements

• Official Trezor device (Model T or One) and original USB cable.
• Computer or mobile device with a modern browser and an internet connection.
• A private, quiet place to record and store your recovery seed safely.

Do not plug in your Trezor until you're ready to verify firmware and visit trezor.io/start through an official link. Avoid downloading unverified software or using public/shared computers for setup.

Unboxing & inspection

Visual checklist

Inspect the packaging for tamper evidence. Confirm the included items: the Trezor device, USB cable, recovery card(s), stickers, and quick-start leaflet. If anything looks compromised, stop and contact official support before proceeding.

Connect & initialize

First connection

Connect your Trezor to your computer or mobile device. Open a browser and navigate to trezor.io/start. Follow on-screen instructions to check the authentic web portal, verify firmware signatures, and install Trezor Suite if desired.

Create or restore wallet

Seed generation

Choose to create a new wallet or restore an existing one using your recovery seed. If creating new, write down the seed words physically and store them offline in multiple, secure locations. Do not photograph or digitize your seed.

Login — Accessing your accounts

Secure login flow

To login, open Trezor Suite or connect via the web interface, authenticate with your PIN on the device, and confirm any on-device prompts. Confirm address and transaction details on the device screen before approving — the device is the single source of truth for security-critical confirmations.

Security best practices

Must-do list

• Never share your recovery seed.
• Keep firmware up to date and verify signatures.
• Prefer physical, tamper-evident storage for recovery seeds.
• Enable passphrase feature only if you understand its implications.

Warning: If someone learns your seed and passphrase, they gain full control over your funds. Treat them like the keys to a safe deposit box.

Troubleshooting & support

Common issues

If the device isn't detected, try a different cable or port. For firmware errors, follow the onscreen guidance and use official resources only. Keep a record of error codes and screenshots to speed up support.
