Why fund Plu from Trezor Suite?
Trezor Suite is the companion app for Trezor hardware wallets (Model T, Safe 3, Safe 5) — Ethereum-focused with broad EVM support.
Plu issues a Visa card you can fund directly with stablecoins. Trezor Suite supports Ethereum and EVM chains via Trezor's native UI. Trezor doesn't natively support Tron, so for Plu funding from Trezor you'll send via Ethereum (ERC-20). The result: one on-chain transaction, then you spend at any of 100+ million Visa merchants in 143+ countries — no exchange off-ramp, no bank account required.
This guide walks you through the exact flow: copying Plu's deposit address, choosing the right network on Trezor Suite, sending the transfer, and confirming the credit. Most users finish in under 5 minutes.
What you'll need
- Trezor Suite installed on your desktop app (paired with hardware wallet)
- USDC or USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20) balance in your Trezor Suite wallet (enough for the transfer + a small network fee buffer)
- A Plu account (free — sign up at app.getplu.com if you don't have one)
- Internet connection on both devices
Step-by-step
1. Open Plu and tap Add funds
Choose USDC or USDT. Plu will prompt you to pick a network.
2. Choose your network
Trezor Suite sends via Ethereum (ERC-20). Network fees vary with gas conditions ($2-15 typical). For cheaper funding, consider holding USDT or USDC in a Tron-compatible wallet for TRC-20 transfers (under $1 in fees).
3. Copy the deposit address
Plu shows a unique deposit address for the network you selected. Tap to copy. Verify the first and last 4 characters match what you'll paste in the next step.
4. Open Trezor Suite and tap Send
Connect your Trezor device. In Trezor Suite, navigate to your Ethereum account, tap Send, and choose USDC or USDT. Paste the Plu deposit address. Confirm on the Trezor device.
5. Paste the address and enter the amount
Paste the Plu deposit address. Enter the USDC or USDT amount you want to fund. Trezor Suite will show you the network fee — review it, then confirm.
6. Wait for the credit
Once the transaction confirms on-chain, Plu credits your balance. Ethereum (ERC-20) typically takes 1-3 minutes. You'll see a notification in the Plu app.
Network selection
Trezor Suite supports the following networks for Plu funding:
| Network | Fee | Speed | Recommended for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ethereum (ERC-20) | $2-15 typical (gas-dependent) | 1-3 minutes | USDC/USDT already on Ethereum |
Default recommendation: **Ethereum (ERC-20)**.
Common issues and fixes
- EVM-only by default — Trezor supports Tron via third-party tools, but Trezor Suite itself is Ethereum-focused. For Tron, you'd use a tool like TronLink with Trezor support.
- Address verification on device — always verify the destination address on the Trezor screen, not just in Trezor Suite.
- Gas in ETH — Ethereum transfers need ETH for gas in the same account.
- Token list — Trezor Suite includes major ERC-20 tokens. If USDC or USDT isn't visible, you may need to add the contract address manually.
What you can do once funded
Once your Plu balance lands, you can:
- Add the Plu Visa to Apple Pay or Google Pay for contactless payments
- Pay any subscription billed in USD (Netflix, Spotify, GitHub, ChatGPT, AWS, etc.)
- Spend at any merchant accepting Visa — 100+ million worldwide
- Withdraw cash at ATMs at competitive rates
- Issue scoped Agent Cards for AI agents (Claude, Cursor, etc.) with hard spending limits

Frequently asked questions
Can I use Trezor with Tron for cheaper transfers to Plu?
Trezor Suite itself is EVM-focused, but Trezor devices can sign Tron transactions through third-party wallets like TronLink (which has Trezor integration). For most users, using Trezor with Ethereum (ERC-20) is the simpler path.
What network should I use to send from Trezor Suite?
Trezor Suite supports Ethereum (ERC-20) only. Network fees vary with gas — typically $2-15. For cheaper funding, consider a Tron-compatible wallet.
How long does the transfer take to credit my Plu balance?
Once the transaction confirms on-chain, Plu credits your balance immediately. Confirmation time depends on the network: TRC-20 lands in 30-90 seconds, ERC-20 takes 1-3 minutes, Solana under 30 seconds.
What if I send to the wrong network?
Cross-chain mistakes are usually unrecoverable. Always confirm the destination address matches the network shown in Plu's deposit screen. Tron addresses start with "T", Ethereum addresses start with "0x", Solana addresses use base58 encoding. Trezor Suite should clearly show the network at the top of the send screen — match it to what Plu requested.
Is there a minimum or maximum deposit?
Plu's minimum deposit is generally low (under $10 equivalent) but varies by tier. Maximum deposits scale with your account verification level. Network fees may make very small deposits uneconomical — it's best to batch top-ups when possible.
