Open the package, verify tamper-evidence stickers, and confirm the device model matches what you ordered. Keep packaging until setup is complete.
Download and install Trezor Bridge for your OS. This small program establishes an encrypted channel between your browser and the device—no cloud intermediary.
Create a new wallet or recover an existing one. Write down the recovery seed on the provided card—never store it digitally. Confirm each word on the device screen.

Trezor Bridge is the unobtrusive helper that makes your browser and device communicate safely. It is designed to be minimal, private, and dependable. It runs locally, facilitates firmware installs and transaction signing, and keeps sensitive flows anchored to your hardware — not a server.
