Getting Started with Ledger Hardware Wallets
Ledger.com/Start® is the trusted onboarding hub for your Ledger Nano X, Nano S Plus, or Stax device. Here, you’ll learn how to set up, secure, and manage your crypto assets with total confidence. Every step is designed to protect your private keys and simplify your experience, ensuring your crypto stays safe from online threats.
Your journey begins by unboxing your Ledger device and downloading the official Ledger Live app. This application is your central hub for crypto management — allowing you to buy, exchange, and grow your portfolio while maintaining full control of your private keys.
At Ledger.com/Start®, we provide the verified links and instructions you need. Avoid third-party downloads or counterfeit devices — your security starts with authenticity. Ledger products are built with cutting-edge hardware security modules and certified through rigorous industry standards.
When setting up, you’ll be prompted to create a PIN code and note down your 24-word recovery phrase. This phrase is your backup — it’s the key to your funds if your device is lost or damaged. Never share it online or store it digitally. Ledger never stores or accesses your keys, keeping you in complete control.
Once your wallet is ready, connect it with Ledger Live. The dashboard provides a clear overview of your holdings, real-time market data, and staking opportunities. You can manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, NFTs, and over 5,500 other tokens securely — all in one place.
For new users, our step-by-step tutorials and security checklist guide you through every action, from updating firmware to verifying addresses before transactions. Ledger Academy, available through the app, helps you understand blockchain technology, DeFi, and how to safely interact with Web3.
Remember: only access your setup guide from Ledger.com/Start® to ensure authenticity. Protect your assets, enhance your knowledge, and embrace the future of finance with confidence.
Begin today — your crypto, your control, your Ledger.
