What is Trezor Suite®?

Trezor Suite® is the official desktop and web application designed for managing your Trezor hardware wallet. It provides a seamless interface to monitor balances, send and receive cryptocurrencies, and manage multiple accounts—all while keeping your private keys offline and fully secure. Unlike third-party wallets, Trezor Suite integrates directly with Trezor hardware devices, giving you full control over your digital assets.

With features like portfolio tracking, transaction history, and easy integration with exchanges, Trezor Suite is more than just a wallet—it’s a secure gateway to the blockchain. For advanced users, it also supports multiple cryptocurrencies, allowing you to manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, and hundreds of altcoins from a single interface.

Step 1: Download and Install Trezor Suite®

To get started, you’ll need to download Trezor Suite from the official Trezor website. It’s available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, as well as a web-based version for quick access.

  1. Visit the Trezor Suite download page.
  2. Choose your preferred version: desktop or web.
  3. Follow the on-screen installation instructions.

Once installed, launch the application. You’ll be prompted to connect your Trezor device to your computer via USB. Make sure your device firmware is up-to-date, as Trezor Suite only works with the latest firmware versions to ensure optimal security and functionality.

Step 2: Connect Your Trezor Device

After opening Trezor Suite, connect your Trezor hardware wallet. The application will guide you through the setup process, which includes:

  • Verifying your device’s authenticity.
  • Setting up a secure PIN to protect against unauthorized access.
  • Backing up your recovery seed, which is crucial for restoring access if your device is lost or damaged.

It’s highly recommended to complete the recovery seed backup offline, in a safe and private location. For additional instructions, check our Trezor.io/start setup guide.

Step 3: Setting Up Your Wallet

Once your device is connected, Trezor Suite will prompt you to create or recover a wallet:

  • Create a new wallet: Ideal for first-time users. Follow the step-by-step prompts to generate your wallet and securely store your recovery seed.
  • Recover an existing wallet: If you already own a Trezor device, enter your recovery seed to restore your wallets and balances.

After setup, Trezor Suite will sync with the blockchain, displaying all your connected accounts and cryptocurrencies. You can now view your portfolio, monitor transaction history, and receive live price updates.

Step 4: Sending and Receiving Cryptocurrencies

With your wallet fully set up, you can start sending and receiving cryptocurrencies securely:

  • Receive crypto: Select the desired account in Trezor Suite, generate a receiving address, and share it with the sender. The hardware wallet will confirm the address to prevent phishing attacks.
  • Send crypto: Enter the recipient’s address, specify the amount, and confirm the transaction on your Trezor device. All private keys remain offline, ensuring maximum security.

Trezor Suite also allows you to set custom transaction fees and provides real-time network confirmations, giving you full control over every transaction.
