Ledger.com/Start® is the official onboarding platform for all Ledger devices. Whether you are setting up your Ledger Nano X, Nano S Plus, or Stax, this page ensures a safe and straightforward start. Protect your assets, follow step-by-step instructions, and never expose your private keys to the internet.
Ledger.com/Start® is your trusted guide for initializing and securing your Ledger hardware wallet. Begin by downloading the Ledger Live app from the official website. Ledger Live is your management interface that allows you to install apps, send and receive cryptocurrencies, and monitor your portfolio—all while keeping private keys isolated on your device.
After installation, connect your Ledger device via USB or Bluetooth (for supported models). When prompted, initialize a new wallet or recover one using your 24-word recovery phrase. This recovery phrase is your ultimate backup—write it down, store it securely offline, and never share it digitally. Your seed phrase is the only way to restore your wallet if your device is lost or reset.
Ledger Live offers advanced features such as staking, account management, and firmware updates. Each operation requires confirmation directly on your hardware device, ensuring that no third party or malware can access your funds. The integration between Ledger hardware and Ledger Live software provides unmatched security, giving you peace of mind every time you transact.
Ledger regularly releases firmware updates to enhance compatibility and protect against vulnerabilities. Always verify authenticity through Ledger Live’s secure channels. Avoid unofficial download links or third-party websites—Ledger.com/Start® is the only legitimate portal for setup and installation.
Once your wallet is ready, explore Ledger Academy for educational resources and guides. Whether you are new to crypto or an experienced investor, Ledger’s ecosystem empowers you to manage digital assets safely and independently. Always remember: Not your keys, not your crypto. With Ledger, you remain in full control.
