Welcome to the Official Ledger® Onboarding™ experience. Setting up your Ledger hardware wallet is simple, secure, and guided step by step through our Official Setup Hub. This guide provides all the information you need to get started safely.
When you receive your Ledger device, ensure it comes in the original sealed package. Verify the box integrity to prevent tampering. Learn more at Ledger Official Setup Hub.
Never share your 24-word recovery phrase with anyone. Ledger staff will never ask for it.
Use the USB cable to connect your Ledger device to your computer. Ensure your system meets the minimum requirements and your operating system is updated.
Ledger Live is the official application to manage your crypto assets securely. Download it from the Ledger Setup Hub.
Always download Ledger Live directly from the official website to avoid phishing attempts.
Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your PIN code and generate your recovery phrase. These steps are crucial to securing your crypto assets.
Select a PIN code that is unique and memorable. This PIN protects your device from unauthorized access.
Ledger will display 24 words that act as the backup to your wallet. Write them on the recovery sheet provided, and store it in a safe location.
Do not store your recovery phrase on your computer, phone, or cloud services. Physical storage is the safest.
Ledger devices require apps for each cryptocurrency you want to manage. Use Ledger Live to install apps safely.
Ledger supports over 5,500 assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and more. Check the full list at Official Ledger Setup Hub.
Open Ledger Live > Manager > Find the app > Install. Your device will confirm the installation.
You can install multiple apps, but Ledger devices have limited space. Manage apps to maximize usage efficiently.
Once your wallet is set up, you can receive cryptocurrency safely. Always verify your receiving address on the device screen before sending funds.
Open Ledger Live, select Receive, choose your account, and confirm the address on your device.
