Sub-Accounts Guide

Sub-Accounts Guide

Sub-accounts allow you to create separate trading environments under your main ByteExchange account. Each sub-account has its own balances, orders, and trading history.

Use Cases

• Separate strategies — Run different trading strategies without mixing funds.
• Team management — Give team members access to specific sub-accounts.
• Portfolio segmentation — Organize holdings by purpose (long-term, trading, etc.).
• Bot isolation — Assign different trading bots to different sub-accounts.

Creating a Sub-Account

1. Go to Settings > Sub-Accounts.
2. Click Create Sub-Account.
3. Enter a name for the sub-account.
4. Set permissions (trading, viewing, transferring).
5. Optionally create API keys specific to this sub-account.
6. Click Create.

Transferring Funds

You can transfer funds between your main account and sub-accounts instantly and for free:

1. Go to Wallet > Transfer.
2. Select the From and To accounts.
3. Choose the asset and enter the amount.
4. Confirm the transfer.

Internal transfers between your accounts are always free and instant.

Sub-Account Limits

Managing Sub-Accounts

• View all sub-accounts and their balances from the Sub-Accounts dashboard.
• Freeze a sub-account to prevent all trading activity.
• Delete sub-accounts that are no longer needed (requires zero balance).
• Each sub-account can have its own API keys with independent permissions.

Important Notes

• Sub-accounts share the same KYC verification as the main account.
• Trading volume from all sub-accounts counts toward your VIP level.
• Withdrawal limits apply to the combined total across all accounts.
