What is a Subaccount

A subaccount is an investment account created and managed under a primary Gate account (referred to as the Main Account). It allows users to manage assets more efficiently. Each main account can create multiple subaccounts for trading and asset management.
Note: Once created, subaccounts cannot be deleted.

Subaccount Creation Limits by VIP Level

A single main account can create multiple subaccounts. The higher your VIP level, the more subaccounts you can create. The specific limits are as follows:

  • VIP 1 – VIP 2: Up to 10 subaccounts
  • VIP 3 – VIP 5: Up to 30 subaccounts
  • VIP 6 – VIP 8: Up to 100 subaccounts
  • VIP 9: Up to 200 subaccounts

(For more subaccounts, please contact Customer Support.)
