YOUR LEDGER JOURNEY
A clearer way
to begin.
Your Ledger journey begins with a simple idea: your digital assets should belong to you. Ledger devices keep your private keys offline, while Ledger Wallet brings your portfolio together in one clear place. Together, they give you a more intentional way to buy, manage, and grow into the world of crypto.
Start by unboxing your device and downloading Ledger Wallet from the official Ledger website. Follow the guided setup to choose a PIN, then carefully write down your 24-word recovery phrase on paper. This phrase is the master backup to your wallet. Keep it private, offline, and somewhere only you can access. Ledger will never ask you to share it.
Once setup is complete, connect your device to Ledger Wallet and explore at your own pace. You can add accounts, view supported assets, and approve transactions directly on your device. Always check the details on its screen before confirming. That small habit puts you in control of every move.
New to self-custody? Take it one step at a time. Learn the essentials, keep your recovery phrase safe, and only act when everything feels clear. Your keys, your choices, your start. Take a breath, ask questions, and move forward when ready.

What is my 24-word recovery phrase?
It is the backup to your wallet and the way to restore access if your device is lost or damaged. Write it down and store it securely offline. Never share it with anyone or enter it into a website, app, or support chat.

Ledger Wallet is available on desktop and mobile. Compatibility depends on your device and operating system. Download the app through Ledger’s official website and follow the guided setup for your specific wallet.
