📦 What’s in the Box?

When you purchase a genuine Trezór® device, here’s what you should receive:

⚠️ Important: If your device arrives with a pre-filled recovery phrase, do not use it! Return it immediately. The phrase should only be generated by you, during first-time setup.

🌐 Step-by-Step: Visit Trezor.io/Start

  1. 🔌 Connect your Trezor device to your computer or Android phone via USB.
  2. 🌐 Go to https://trezor.io/start — always type it manually to avoid phishing.
  3. ⬇️ Download and install the Trezor Suite application for your OS.
  4. 🖱️ Open Trezor Suite and follow the prompt: “Create new wallet.”
  5. 🔐 Set your PIN and generate a new recovery seed (12 or 24 words).
✍️ Write down your seed phrase — by hand! Never save it on your phone or computer. This is your master backup key.

🔐 Creating a Secure PIN

Your PIN prevents unauthorized access. Trezor randomizes keypad layout for added protection. Choose a PIN that is unique and not easily guessed.

⚠️ If someone else gets your seed phrase, they control your crypto. Trezor never stores it — only you have access.
