What is a Sub Account
A subaccount is an investment account created and managed under a primary Gate US account (referred to as Main Account). It allows you 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 the VIP level, the more subaccounts can be created. The specific rules are as follows:
- VIP 0 – 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.)
