Get Started with Ledger: Your Secure Path to Crypto Ownership

Welcome to Ledger.com/Start, your official and trusted guide to setting up your Ledger device for the safest way to manage your cryptocurrencies. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned investor, Ledger provides the security and control you need to protect your digital assets with confidence.

Why Choose Ledger?

Ledger is a globally trusted name in cryptocurrency security, offering industry-leading hardware wallets that keep your assets safe from hacks and online threats. Unlike software wallets that can be compromised, Ledger devices store your private keys offline, providing a powerful layer of protection.

At Ledger.com/Start, you’ll find everything you need to:

  • Set up your Ledger device
  • Install and use Ledger Live
  • Securely send, receive, and manage crypto
  • Safeguard your recovery phrase
  • Stay updated with the latest security tips

Step 1: Visit Ledger.com/Start

To begin, go to Ledger.com/Start using your preferred browser. This is the official starting point for setting up your Ledger hardware wallet. It’s crucial to only use the official site to avoid counterfeit devices and phishing scams.

Step 2: Unbox and Check Your Ledger Device

Once your Ledger device arrives, check that the packaging is sealed and untampered. Ledger devices come with:

  • The hardware wallet (Nano X or Nano S Plus)
  • USB cable
  • Recovery sheet
  • Instruction manual

Follow the instructions provided at Ledger.com/Start to verify the authenticity of your device.

Step 3: Download Ledger Live

Ledger Live is the official app that lets you manage your crypto assets. You can download it directly from Ledger.com/Start for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, or Android. Make sure to always download Ledger Live from the official site to avoid malicious versions.

Once installed, connect your device to Ledger Live. You’ll be guided through the setup process, including creating a new wallet, setting a PIN code, and writing down your 24-word recovery phrase.

Step 4: Secure Your Recovery Phrase

Your recovery phrase is the only backup to your wallet. Never share it with anyone or store it online. Ledger will never ask for your recovery phrase—not by email, not through pop-ups, and not via support channels. Store it in a secure location offline.

Step 5: Add Accounts and Manage Assets

With your Ledger set up and Ledger Live installed, you can now:

  • Add accounts for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and over 5,000 supported coins and tokens
  • Send and receive crypto securely
  • Track your portfolio in real-time
  • Use third-party apps with full hardware protection

Ledger Live also gives you access to DeFi, staking, NFTs, and more—all while keeping your private keys safe.
