Welcome to Ledger.com/start — the official starting point for Ledger Nano S Plus, Nano X, and all Ledger hardware wallets. This guide ensures you correctly initialize your device, install Ledger Live, safeguard your recovery phrase, and protect your crypto assets. Unlike software wallets, Ledger devices keep your private keys offline, giving you an unmatched level of security.
When you receive your Ledger Nano, inspect the packaging for tampering. Genuine Ledger devices always ship with intact seals. Connect the device with the supplied cable to your computer or smartphone. If anything looks suspicious, contact Ledger support before proceeding.
Go to Ledger.com/start and download Ledger Live for your operating system. Ledger Live is the official companion app used to manage accounts, install crypto apps, and update firmware. Always verify you’re on the correct URL before downloading.
