Welcome to Ledger.com/Start

Ledger.com/start is the official setup portal for your Ledger hardware wallet. This is the first and most important step in securing your crypto assets. By visiting this page, you ensure you are following the correct process to initialize your device safely and install Ledger Live, the companion app for managing your digital assets.

Getting Started

To begin, connect your Ledger device to your computer using the provided USB cable. Once connected, follow the on-screen instructions to either initialize a new wallet or recover an existing one using your recovery phrase. Ledger Live will guide you through each step, from setting up a PIN to writing down your recovery phrase securely.

Install Ledger Live

Ledger Live is the official software for managing your Ledger device and crypto assets. You can download it directly from the Ledger.com/start page for Windows, macOS, and Linux. After installation, use it to add crypto accounts, send and receive funds, and check your portfolio.

Verify Authenticity

Always make sure you are using the official Ledger device purchased from Ledger or an authorized reseller. Never share your 24-word recovery phrase with anyone. Ledger will never ask for your recovery phrase, even during support interactions.
