Step-by-Step Setup Guide at Ledger.com/Start

Setting up your Ledger hardware wallet is simple. Just follow these steps:

1. Visit Ledger.com/Start

Start by going to the official Ledger.com/Start page. This ensures you're following the most accurate and secure setup instructions provided directly by Ledger.

2. Download Ledger Live

Next, download the Ledger Live app—available for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. This all-in-one app lets you manage your crypto, check real-time balances, and install apps for different coins.

3. Unbox Your Device

Check your device packaging for any signs of tampering. If it appears unsealed or pre-configured, do not use it. Ledger wallets come in a sealed box with an authenticity card and recovery sheets.

4. Set Up Your Ledger Device

Follow the on-screen instructions on Ledger Live to set up your device:

  • Choose "Initialize as new device"
  • Select a PIN code (4 to 8 digits)
  • Write down your 24-word recovery phrase (do this offline and keep it safe)

5. Install Apps and Add Accounts

Using Ledger Live, install apps for the cryptocurrencies you want to manage (like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, etc.). Then, add accounts and start receiving, sending, and holding your digital assets securely.

Your Recovery Phrase is Everything

During setup, you'll receive a 24-word recovery phrase. This is your backup—the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or stolen. Never share it with anyone. Never store it online. Ledger will never ask for it.

To keep your phrase safe, consider using a cryptosteel capsule or similar fireproof, waterproof backup solution.
