Trézór Bridge® | Crypto in Trèzōr™ Suite™*

In the evolving world of cryptocurrency, security and functionality must go hand in hand. That’s where Trézór Bridge® comes in — a critical communication layer that links your Trèzōr™ hardware wallet to the Trèzōr™ Suite™ application. Whether you're using the web or desktop version of Trèzōr Suite™, Trézór Bridge® ensures seamless, secure, and encrypted communication between your browser and your Trézór™ device.

This guide will explain what Trézór Bridge® is, why it’s essential, and how to install and use it as part of your crypto security setup.


What is Trézór Bridge®?

Trézór Bridge® is an official software developed by SatoshiLabs, designed to facilitate communication between your browser (or desktop environment) and your Trézór™ hardware wallet. It acts as a secure, encrypted gateway, allowing web-based apps — such as Trézór Suite Web™ — to interact with your device safely and efficiently.

Without Trézór Bridge®, your hardware wallet may not be recognized in certain browsers or environments. It fills the gap where native support is unavailable or limited.


🔐 Why Do You Need Trézór Bridge®?

In many environments, browsers restrict direct access to hardware devices for security reasons. Trézór Bridge®:

  • Enables communication between your browser and Trézór device
  • Maintains encryption between your hardware wallet and Trézōr Suite™
  • Ensures real-time transaction signing
  • Works with Chrome, Firefox, Brave, Edge, and others

While WebUSB is supported in some browsers (like Chrome), Trézór Bridge® offers broader compatibility and improved reliability.
