Trezor Bridge

Secure Connection for Trezor Devices – Simple, Reliable, and Safe

What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight communication tool that connects your Trezor hardware wallet with desktop applications and web browsers. Without it, your computer and your Trezor device would not be able to communicate securely. The software acts as a secure link, ensuring that your sensitive crypto operations are processed only on your Trezor hardware wallet, never exposed to the computer or internet.

Whether you are signing a transaction, checking balances, or updating firmware, Trezor Bridge ensures smooth interaction with Trezor Suite and third-party applications.

Why is Trezor Bridge Important?

Transactions remain protected. The Bridge ensures that no data is intercepted by unauthorized applications or malware on your device.

Trezor Bridge works seamlessly on Windows, macOS, and Linux, enabling broad adoption regardless of your preferred environment.

Trusted by Users

Millions of Trezor owners rely on the Bridge to safely interact with their crypto assets every day, making it a core part of the Trezor ecosystem.

How Trezor Bridge Works

The Trezor Bridge runs quietly in the background after installation. Once active, it establishes an encrypted communication channel between your Trezor device and any supported desktop or web application.

  1. Installation: Download Trezor Bridge from the official Trezor website.
  2. Device Detection: When you plug in your Trezor, the Bridge detects it instantly.
  3. Secure Requests: Applications send requests through the Bridge; you confirm actions directly on the hardware wallet.
  4. Transaction Signing: Sensitive data never leaves your Trezor device; only signed and verified outputs are transmitted back.

This flow guarantees that even if your computer is compromised, your crypto assets remain safe within the secure environment of your Trezor device.
