How to Set Up Your Ledger Wallet

Step 1: Go to Ledger.com/Start

Open your browser and go directly to https://ledger.com/start. Bookmark it to avoid confusion later.

Step 2: Choose Your Ledger Device

Select the correct model (Nano S Plus, Nano X, or Stax). The setup guide will be tailored to your device.

Step 3: Download Ledger Live

Ledger Live is the app you’ll use to manage your crypto. Download it for Windows, macOS, or Linux. There’s also a mobile version for Android and iOS.

Step 4: Connect and Initialize Your Wallet

Plug your Ledger device into your computer or pair it with your phone via Bluetooth (Nano X). Follow the step-by-step guide to:

  • Choose a PIN
  • Generate a 24-word recovery phrase
  • Confirm the phrase on your device

Never share or store your seed phrase online.

Understanding Your Recovery Phrase

The 24-word recovery phrase is the key to your crypto vault. If your device is lost or damaged, this phrase lets you recover everything.

Do this during setup:

  • Write it down on the provided recovery sheet
  • Keep it offline and secure
  • Never take a screenshot or upload it to the cloud
  • Don’t share it with anyone — ever

Ledger will never ask for it. If someone does, it's a scam.
