Logging into a Trezor wallet is different from traditional online accounts because Trezor never stores your login credentials online. Instead, access is managed entirely through your physical hardware device and your recovery seed, keeping your cryptocurrency secure. Here’s a clear explanation of how Trezor wallet login works:

1. Connect Your Trezor Device

• Plug your Trezor hardware wallet into your computer using a USB cable.

• Make sure you’re using an official cable and connection to avoid connection issues.

2. Open Trezor Suite or Web Wallet

• Trezor Suite is the official application for managing your wallet.

• You can also use compatible web wallets that support Trezor devices.

• Go to Trezor.io/start if you haven’t installed the software yet.

3. Enter Your PIN

• Your Trezor device is protected by a PIN, which is set during the initial wallet setup.

• Enter the PIN directly on the Trezor device screen, not on your computer, for security.

• Each login attempt requires the PIN, so even if your computer is compromised, your funds remain safe.

4. Access Your Wallet

• Once the PIN is entered, Trezor Suite or the web wallet will recognize your device.

• You can now send, receive, and manage your cryptocurrencies securely.

• Your private keys never leave the device; transactions are signed internally on the Trezor.

5. Optional Passphrase

• For added security, Trezor supports an optional passphrase.

• This acts as a “25th word” to your recovery seed and creates a hidden wallet.

• Only someone with both your recovery seed and passphrase can access this hidden wallet.

6. Logging Out

• When finished, safely disconnect your Trezor device.

• There’s no traditional “logout” because the wallet exists on your device, not online.

Key Notes for Security:

• Always access Trezor wallets through official apps or verified websites.

• Never share your PIN or recovery seed with anyone.

• Avoid logging in on public or untrusted computers.
