Let’s get started with setting up your Ledger Wallet® and take the first step towards securing your digital assets!
Get Started NowSetting up your Ledger Wallet® is easy, and it only takes a few minutes. Follow these steps to get started:
When you receive your Ledger device, unbox it carefully. Inside the package, you’ll find your Ledger hardware wallet, a USB cable, a recovery sheet, and instructions for use. Make sure to keep the recovery sheet in a safe place, as it’s your backup for recovering your wallet if the device is lost or damaged.
To begin using your Ledger Wallet, you’ll need to install Ledger Live™ — the official software companion app for your device. Ledger Live is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, as well as mobile versions for iOS and Android. Download the app from the official Ledger website and install it on your computer or mobile device.
Once you’ve installed Ledger Live™, connect your Ledger Wallet to your computer or mobile device using the provided USB cable. Open the Ledger Live app and follow the instructions to initialize your device. During the setup process, you will create a new PIN code to protect your device from unauthorized access.
For the highest level of security, Ledger Wallet uses a 24-word recovery phrase to back up your private keys. This phrase is the only way to recover your wallet if the device is lost, stolen, or damaged. Write down the recovery phrase on the provided sheet and store it in a safe, secure place — never share it with anyone!
Now that your device is set up, you can start managing your cryptocurrencies! In Ledger Live™, go to the “Accounts” section and add your first cryptocurrency account (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other supported assets). You can now send and receive funds from your new Ledger Wallet®.
With your Ledger Wallet® fully set up, you’re ready to securely store and manage your cryptocurrency. Use the “Sign In Your Device®” feature to authenticate and approve any transactions, ensuring that your assets remain protected from phishing, malware, and online threats.
