Set up your Ledger Nano X or Nano S Plus and take full control of your crypto assets securely.
Start SetupWelcome to Ledger.Com/Start — the official Ledger setup and onboarding portal. Ledger hardware wallets, including the Ledger Nano X and Ledger Nano S Plus, are built to safeguard your digital currencies and NFTs with industry-leading security. This page will guide you through the entire setup process, from unboxing to your first transaction.
When you open your Ledger box, confirm that all packaging is sealed and untampered. Inside, you should find:
If you suspect tampering, contact Ledger Support before using the device.
Using a trusted browser, type Ledger.Com/Start directly into the address bar. This ensures you’re on the genuine Ledger website and not a phishing copy. You’ll be prompted to download Ledger Live — the official desktop and mobile app for managing your crypto securely.
Download Ledger Live for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, or Android. Once installed, open the app and follow the on-screen steps. You’ll be guided to connect your device, set up a PIN code, and create your 24-word recovery phrase. This phrase is your only backup if your device is lost or damaged. Write it on the recovery sheet provided and keep it offline — never store it digitally or share it with anyone.
After setup, use Ledger Live to install apps for the cryptocurrencies you wish to manage — such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, or XRP. Then, add accounts to view balances, send, and receive assets. Each blockchain requires its own app, and every transaction must be verified directly on your device’s screen for maximum safety.
With your Ledger and Ledger Live, you can:
Your private keys always remain inside your Ledger device — giving you complete control over your assets.
If you encounter issues during setup, visit the official Ledger Support Center for FAQs, video tutorials, and troubleshooting steps.
Ledger will never ask for your recovery phrase. Stay alert and always confirm you are on Ledger.Com/Start before entering any information.
Setting up your wallet through Ledger.Com/Start is the first step toward true digital ownership. Protect your cryptocurrency investments with the security and trust only a Ledger device can provide. Begin today — your crypto, your control.
