Welcome to Ledger.com/start — Official Getting Started Guide

Begin your crypto security journey the right way with Ledger.com/start — the trusted, official setup destination for all Ledger devices. Whether you own a Ledger Nano X, Nano S Plus, or any other model, this page ensures you follow a secure and authentic setup process.

Start by downloading the official Ledger Live application. Once installed, connect your device and follow the guided steps to initialize it safely. During setup, your recovery phrase will appear — a 24-word backup that acts as your ultimate access key. Write it down, store it offline, and never share it online or photograph it. This phrase is the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged.

Ledger devices are designed to give you full ownership of your digital assets. Your private keys remain inside the hardware wallet, isolated from online threats and phishing attacks. Ledger Live enables you to manage, buy, swap, and stake crypto with complete transparency and freedom — directly from one secure interface.

Keep your device’s firmware up to date and only download Ledger Live from official sources. Avoid counterfeit links or “support” scams — if it doesn’t say Ledger.com/start, it’s not genuine. With Ledger, you’re not just storing crypto; you’re protecting your financial independence.
