Why Start at Ledger.com/Start?

Ledger’s official setup page ensures that you follow only verified steps and download authentic software. Fake sites and phishing scams can imitate Ledger’s brand, so using the correct link — Ledger.com/Start — is crucial for your wallet’s security. This page provides:

Step-by-Step Setup Guide

  1. Unbox your Ledger Nano device and check that the packaging is intact.
  2. Visit Ledger.com/Start on your browser — never use links sent via email or messages.
  3. Choose your device model (Nano X, S Plus, or Stax).
  4. Download and install Ledger Live on your computer or phone.
  5. Follow the on-screen setup assistant to create a new wallet or restore an existing one.
  6. Write down your 24-word recovery phrase on paper — not digitally.
Remember: Your recovery phrase is the only way to restore your crypto. Never share it, photograph it, or store it online.

Troubleshooting and Support

Why Choose Ledger?

Ledger also undergoes third-party security audits and continuous firmware testing for transparency and trust.
