Introduction

Entering the world of crypto doesn’t have to be risky. Ledger.com/start is the official onboarding portal that guides you safely to setting up your Ledger wallet. This guide walks you through every step to secure your assets, manage your accounts, and operate confidently in crypto.

Start Securely

Why Begin the Right Way?

First impressions matter—even in cryptocurrency. Following the official process ensures your wallet is genuine, your recovery phrase is protected, and your apps are installed safely. Skipping steps can result in costly mistakes.

Simple Steps to Follow

1. Head to the Official Page

Always use the official Ledger onboarding portal to avoid scams.

2. Install Ledger Live

This companion app helps you manage your crypto accounts and ensures you receive updates safely.

3. Set Up Your Wallet

Create a PIN and generate a recovery phrase directly on your Ledger device.

4. Write Down Your Words

Keep your recovery phrase offline, safe, and private. Never type it on a computer or phone.

5. Manage Safely

Add accounts, send or receive crypto, and verify every transaction directly on your device screen.

Stay Secure Beyond Setup

Avoiding Red Flags

Fake websites, urgent pop-ups, or “support agents” asking for your recovery phrase are scams. Trust only the official onboarding instructions and confirm all actions on your Ledger device screen.
