With Trezor Login, you can authenticate to various crypto services without ever exposing your private keys. This guide covers everything from initial setup at trezor.io/start to daily use with Trezor Suite and Trezor Bridge.

Initial Setup Process

To begin using Trezor Login, you'll need to properly configure your device:

  • Visit trezor.io/start in your web browser
  • Download and install Trezor Bridge for device communication
  • Connect your Trezor device via USB cable
  • Create a strong PIN and write down your recovery seed
  • Install Trezor Suite for full wallet functionality
Important: Never share your recovery seed with anyone and always verify addresses on your Trezor's display before confirming transactions.
