Secure Setup for Your Ledger Wallet
Welcome to Ledger.com/Start — the official starting point for all Ledger wallet users. Whether you’ve purchased a Ledger Nano X, Nano S Plus, or another model, this guide ensures your assets remain safe from the moment you plug in your device. Ledger wallets are built to give you total control over your crypto through advanced security and simplicity.
Begin by connecting your Ledger device to your computer or smartphone. Once connected, visit Ledger.com/start to download the official Ledger Live app — your command center for managing accounts and tracking your crypto portfolio. Ledger Live allows you to install apps for each coin, send and receive funds, and monitor real-time balances all from one secure dashboard.
When you first initialize your wallet, the device will display a recovery phrase made up of 24 unique words. This seed is your master backup — the only way to restore your wallet if it’s lost or reset. Write it down carefully on paper and store it in a secure, offline location. Never share it online or save it digitally. Protecting this phrase ensures only you can access your funds.
Next, you’ll set up a PIN code for your Ledger device. This provides an extra layer of protection, blocking unauthorized access even if the device is stolen. Once setup is complete, use Ledger Live to install the cryptocurrency apps you want. With support for thousands of assets, you’ll have complete flexibility in managing your portfolio.
At Ledger.com/Start, your journey toward secure digital finance begins. Ledger’s hardware encryption and open-source firmware offer transparency, control, and peace of mind. Protect, manage, and grow your crypto assets confidently — with Ledger, your security is always in your hands.
