What is trezor.io/start and why use it

trezor.io/start is the official onboarding page for new Trezor hardware wallet owners. It walks you through downloading the Trezor Suite app (desktop or browser), installing or launching the Suite, initializing your device, creating a PIN, and safely recording your recovery seed. The official start flow is designed to minimize user mistakes during the crucial first setup. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Trezor Suite serves as the companion interface for viewing balances, building transactions, and managing device firmware. All signing and private-key operations remain on the Trezor device; Suite only builds the unsigned transactions and routes them to the hardware for approval. This separation preserves cold-storage security while making management convenient. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Connecting an exchange or custodial account (example: Uphold®)

Many users transfer funds from exchanges or custodial platforms to their hardware wallet for long-term storage. Platforms like Uphold® provide web and mobile wallets, trading, and fiat rails. When moving funds, always verify the destination address on your Trezor display and send a small test amount first to confirm the flow. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Tip: Never paste an address you haven't confirmed visually on your hardware device. Address mangling by malware is a common attack vector—the Trezor screen is your last line of defense.

Troubleshooting specific scenarios

  • Uphold 2FA reset: If your authenticator is lost or SMS doesn’t arrive, follow the platform’s 2FA recovery flow or open a support ticket for a manual reset. Expect identity verification steps for safety. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
  • Unable to verify Uphold wallet / "Can't verify": Confirm you completed KYC/identity checks, and retry after clearing cache or using the mobile app.
  • Error connecting / decline errors: Check that your payment method has sufficient funds, addresses are correct, and that there are no IP/geolocation blocks or service incidents reported by support.
  • Uphold App not working: Reinstall the app, update OS, and check permissions (location/network). If the issue persists, capture screenshots and file a support ticket for debugging.

Account recovery and safety

For Trezor, recovery uses the seed phrase you wrote down at setup—store it offline in multiple secure locations. For Uphold®, account recovery typically involves password reset flows, 2FA recovery, and identity verification; use the official support pages to initiate these processes. Never share your seed, password, or 2FA codes with anyone claiming to be support. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
