Toobit sub-account guide

2025-10-29 12:15

What is a sub-account?

A sub-account is a secondary account linked to your Toobit main account. You can create multiple sub-accounts to separate trading strategies, allocate permissions, or facilitate collaboration. Sub-accounts operate independently regarding funds and trading, but their access and management are controlled by the main account.

Toobit currently supports sub-account creation, management, fund transfers, and asset viewing.

How to create a sub-account (Web)

Log in to your Toobit account on the website, click your profile icon in the top-right corner, and select [Sub-account].

Click [Create sub-account] and fill in the required information:

Email address (must not already be registered with Toobit; virtual emails are supported)
Email verification code
Login password

Note:

For virtual emails, simply enter the email address.
Virtual emails cannot be used for direct login; they must be managed via API by the main account.

After filling in the information, the system will verify your security code. Once verified, click [Confirm].

Your sub-account will be created and listed under the [Sub-account] page, showing basic information and status.

To transfer funds, click [Transfer] to move assets between the main account and sub-accounts. Transfers are instant and free of blockchain confirmation or fees.

How to create a sub-account (App)

Tap [Create sub-account] and enter the email address and password.
Once created, you will see a confirmation message and can view the new sub-account on the Sub-account page.

Sub-account features and permissions

Independent login

Sub-accounts can log in independently on the Toobit Web or App, without affecting the main account.

Fund transfers

The main account can freely transfer funds to and from sub-accounts. Direct transfers between sub-accounts are not supported, but can be achieved via the main account.

Deposits and withdrawals

Sub-accounts can receive deposits directly, but withdrawals must go through the main account.

API management (Web Only)

You can create API keys for sub-accounts under [API management] > [Create API] and configure permissions as needed.
For assistance with sub-account APIs, contact support@toobit.com.

Permissions and security

From [Sub-accounts] > [Settings], the main account can monitor all sub-accounts' assets, positions, orders, and transfer history. Available actions:

Freeze sub-Account: Prevents login and trading.
Unfreeze sub-Account: Restores a frozen sub-account, allowing login and API usage.
Delete sub-Account: Permanently removes the sub-account and all associated data.
Force logout: Immediately logs out the sub-account from all devices.

Note: The main account is fully responsible for all sub-account actions. Keep login and transfer credentials secure. Freeze or force logout any sub-account if suspicious activity occurs, and contact support.
