ONE RULE TO REMEMBER

Your Secret Recovery Phrase is yours alone.

Never share it with anyone—not even someone claiming to be Ledger Support. Ledger will never ask for it. Keep it offline, private, and out of photos, messages, and websites.

PRIVATE MEANS
PRIVATE.
A NOTE BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Set yourself up
for the long run.

Take ownership of crypto with a setup built around care. Your Ledger device keeps private keys offline, while Ledger Wallet helps you manage assets and approve transactions. Follow your device’s instructions and make every security decision yourself, at your own pace.

Download Ledger Wallet from Ledger’s official website or your device’s official app store. Connect your device, follow prompts and install updates. Choose a PIN on the device; never share it or let anyone else choose it. Your PIN protects device access, not your recovery phrase.

Your device may generate a Secret Recovery Phrase. Write it on the supplied recovery materials and store it offline, somewhere private. Anyone who sees it can control your assets. Ledger will never ask you to reveal it online or to support staff. Never photograph it, type it into a computer, or enter it on a website.

After setup, add accounts in the app and verify transactions on your Ledger screen before approving. The app helps you manage; your device confirms what you sign. If anything feels unexpected, pause and visit Ledger’s official help center. Careful setup makes everyday use simpler. Keep your recovery phrase safe while you own your assets. Your security starts here.
