Master your crypto with clarity and confidence: simple setup, uncompromising security, and a human-centered experience to own your digital assets.
Welcome to Trezor Suite — the desktop and web companion for Trezor hardware wallets. This guide walks you through every step: unboxing, initializing, connecting to Trezor Suite, creating or restoring a wallet, and understanding best practices that keep your crypto safe.
A clear, unified view of your portfolio, balances, and recent activity — designed to help you make calm, informed decisions without noise or jargon.
Your keys stay offline on the Trezor device. Even when you use Trezor Suite to sign transactions, the signing happens on-device — keeping secrets secure.
Connected integrations let you swap tokens, stake supported assets, and interact with third-party apps — all while keeping your private keys under your control.
Every transaction shows exact fees and on-chain details before you confirm. Verify on the device screen for an additional layer of trust.
This section is written in a clear, warmer tone so you can follow along easily. Think of it as a friendly expert sitting beside you while you unbox your device.
Carefully open your Trezor box and ensure all tamper-evident seals are intact. Inside you'll find the Trezor device, a USB cable, a recovery card, and quick-start instructions. Before you plug it in, choose a private, quiet spot where you can write down your recovery words without interruptions. Trezor will guide you through a secure initialization flow — never use a device that arrived pre-initialized or with a suspicious QR code.
When prompted, choose to create a new wallet if this device is new to you. Trezor will generate a recovery phrase (usually 12, 18, or 24 words depending on settings). Write these words down on the provided recovery card in the exact order shown. Keep them offline and physically secure — they are your ultimate backup. If you're restoring, carefully enter the words in order; the device will confirm that the phrase matches before allowing access.
Download Trezor Suite from the official website and install it on your desktop or use the supported web interface. Connect your device with the USB cable and follow on-screen prompts to pair. Trezor Suite will ask you to create a local password for the app (this protects the Suite settings and cache). Remember: the password is separate from your recovery phrase and should be strong yet memorable.
Always verify the device model and firmware version when you first connect. Trezor devices include a firmware verification step — follow it. If an update is available, read the release notes and apply updates from the official Suite. Firmware updates patch security issues and improve compatibility; applying them promptly keeps your device resilient.
Trezor Suite supports many cryptocurrencies and token standards. Add accounts by selecting the network (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) and creating an account within Suite. Each account will derive addresses from your device using industry-standard paths. For token balances (like ERC-20), Suite reads on-chain data and keeps your view synchronized; always verify balances on the device when preparing a transaction.
To receive funds, open the relevant account and generate an address — confirm it on your device screen before sharing. For sending, enter the recipient address and amount in Suite; fees are estimated and shown clearly. Before you finalize, look at the transaction details displayed on your Trezor — the device confirms the address and amount independently of your computer, preventing malicious host attacks.
Trezor Suite integrates with third-party services for swaps and DeFi interactions. When connecting to a dapp, ensure the origin is correct and review all approvals on your device. Avoid blindly approving contract calls: check amounts, tokens, and spender addresses. Use separate accounts for high-risk activities when possible.
Never share your recovery phrase; Ledger or Trezor support will never ask for it. Avoid storing your phrase digitally or taking photos. Beware of phishing sites — always use the official site and check the browser URL carefully. Use a hardware wallet only from authorized retailers to avoid tampered devices.
If you lose your device, your recovery phrase allows you to restore funds to a new Trezor or compatible wallet. During recovery, consider using a clean device and a secure environment. If you suspect compromise, move funds to new addresses derived from a newly-generated recovery phrase.
Trezor's official help center, community forums, and educational articles are excellent resources. When in doubt, cross-reference multiple official resources and prefer documentation that includes step-by-step screens. For complicated situations (e.g., unsupported tokens), reach out to official support channels with caution — never provide your recovery phrase or private keys.
By following these steps with intention and calm, you build a resilient foundation for long-term ownership. Trezor Suite is built to make that foundation easy to manage — but the responsibility for safekeeping is always with you.
