Official® Site – Trézór Bridge® | Powering Secure Crypto Use in Trèzōr™ Suite

Introduction

In the constantly evolving world of cryptocurrency, security, privacy, and usability are critical. The Trézōr™ hardware wallet, developed by SatoshiLabs, stands out as one of the most trusted and secure methods for protecting digital assets. But for Trézōr to work seamlessly with browsers and web applications, it relies on an essential component known as Trézór Bridge®.

Trézór Bridge® is the official communication software that enables your Trézōr wallet to interact with web-based platforms, including the Trézōr Suite™ Web interface and third-party tools like MetaMask and decentralized finance (DeFi) apps. It ensures that even when you’re using the internet, your hardware wallet remains protected and isolated from potential threats.

What is Trézór Bridge®?

Trézór Bridge® is a background service designed to securely connect your Trézōr hardware wallet to your browser. It creates a secure layer of communication between your device and web applications, ensuring your private keys never leave the hardware wallet while allowing browser interaction for signing transactions, checking balances, or using decentralized apps.

While newer browsers support WebUSB, this feature can be inconsistent across platforms. Trézór Bridge® offers broader compatibility, supporting browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, and works across major operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Why Use Trézór Bridge®?

Here are several key reasons to install and use Trézór Bridge®:

✅ Security

Your private keys never touch your computer or browser. All transaction signing is done within the Trézōr hardware wallet, and Bridge acts purely as a communicator—not a controller.

🌐 Browser Compatibility

Trézór Bridge® ensures that your wallet works with multiple browsers. It bypasses limitations in browser support for USB devices and provides a smoother, more stable connection.

🔄 Web3 & dApp Access

You can use your Trézōr wallet with DeFi platforms, NFT marketplaces, and Web3 applications by connecting through MetaMask or directly via supported sites—all through Bridge.

⚙️ Essential for Trézōr Suite™ Web

If you prefer to use the web version of Trézōr Suite™ (instead of the desktop app), Bridge is required for secure device communication.
