The essentials

Getting started
with Ledger

A few simple habits make a meaningful difference. Keep these principles close whenever you set up your device or manage your assets.

01

Use official software

Download Ledger software only through official Ledger resources. Verify the website address before downloading applications or following setup instructions.

02

Protect your recovery phrase

Your Secret Recovery Phrase is highly sensitive. Never share it with anyone and never type it into a website, form, chat, or customer-support request.

03

Verify every transaction

Carefully review transaction details on your Ledger device before approving blockchain transactions or signing messages.

Good security is built into the small decisions.
Stay one step ahead

Security is a habit,
not a setting.

Scams can look convincing. Slow down, question unexpected requests, and use official resources you’ve reached independently.

Beware of impersonators

Fraudsters may imitate Ledger websites, support representatives, advertisements, or social-media accounts. Be wary of unsolicited contacts.

01

Check website addresses

Before downloading software or accessing support information, independently verify that you are visiting an official Ledger website.

02

Never share your PIN

Keep your device PIN and recovery information private. Legitimate support should never require your Secret Recovery Phrase.
