As crypto trading becomes more sophisticated, many users find themselves managing multiple portfolios, experimenting with different strategies, or collaborating with team members. Handling everything, using a single account, can quickly become difficult to organize. To solve this, ZebPay has introduced Sub-Accounts, which’s a feature that allows eligible users to create and manage multiple trading accounts under 1 master account, while maintaining complete control and visibility.
What are Sub-Accounts?
Sub-Accounts allow a verified ZebPay user to create multiple accounts that function under the supervision of their master account. Users can now create dedicated Sub-Accounts for different trading activities while keeping everything connected.
Whether you’re managing multiple trading strategies, separating long-term investments from active trading, Sub-Accounts provide a structured way to organize your crypto activities.
Why Use Sub-Accounts?
Evolution in your trading journey can also impact your requirements. Hence, having separate accounts offer multiple benefits and can also make it easier to:
- Keep long-term investments separate from short-term trades.
- Track the performance of individual strategies more accurately.
- Organize portfolios based on different goals or risk profiles.
- Manage everything from a single verified account.
Important Characteristics of Sub-Accounts
Enhanced Security At Every Step
Security remains a priority throughout the Sub-Account ecosystem. Sensitive actions such as:
- Creating Sub-Accounts
- Fund Transfers
- Permission Modifications
- Email Changes
- API Key Management
- Account Freezing
require OTP verification and security PIN authentication, which helps ensure that only authorized users can make important account changes.
Built-In Activity Tracking and Audit Logs
Every important action is recorded, including:
- Login Attempts
- Fund Transfers
- Permission Changes
- API Activity
- Account Management Actions
The master account can review these records, whenever required, helping users maintain transparency and accountability across all Sub-Accounts.
API Access for Advanced Traders
For users who rely on automated trading strategies, Sub-Accounts support API access with dedicated API keys. Key security features are:
- IP Whitelisting
- Permission-Based Access Controls
- Key Visibility Management
- Centralized Monitoring by the Master Account
Key Benefits of Sub-Accounts
Manage Multiple Accounts from 1 Place
Eligible users can create up to 10 Sub-Accounts, guided and controlled by a master account. This allows a user to organize different portfolios and strategies without maintaining multiple independent accounts. Since the Sub-Accounts inherit key verification details from the master account, getting started is quick and seamless.
Decide What Each Account Can Access
Not every account needs access to every ZebPay feature. With permission-based controls, the master account can decide which services a Sub-Account can use, including:
- Quick Trade
- Exchange
- Perpetual Futures
- CryptoPacks
- Earn
- API Usage
Monitor Everything from a Central Dashboard
The master account acts as a central hub for all linked Sub-Accounts. From a single dashboard, user can:
- View all Sub-Accounts
- Monitor Balances and Portfolio Performance
- Review Account Activity
- Update Permissions When Required
- Freeze Accounts (if needed)
Simplified Fund Management
Funds can be transferred between the master account and Sub-Accounts, whenever needed. To maintain security and control:
- Fiat deposits and withdrawals remain exclusive to the master account.
- Direct transfers between Sub-Accounts aren’t permitted.
- Sub-Accounts can transfer funds back to the master account.
- All transfers are monitored and recorded.
Independent Trading Experience
Each Sub-Account has its own login credentials and can trade independently within the permissions granted by the master account. At the same time, the master account retains complete visibility and control over account activity and trading experience.
Who Can Benefit from Sub-Accounts?
- Active Traders: Monitor their performance individually, with everybody having different trading strategies.
- Advanced Investors: Maintain dedicated portfolios for long-term holdings, short-term opportunities, or specific investment goals.
- Businesses and Teams: Assign trading responsibilities to team members while retaining centralized control and oversight.
- API Users and Algorithmic Traders: Run multiple automated strategies through dedicated accounts with customized permissions.
Things to Keep in Mind
- KYC and bank details are inherited from the master account.
- Combined trading activity contributes toward the master account’s tier benefits.
- Fiat deposits and withdrawals are present only via the master account.
- Direct transfers between Sub-Accounts aren’t supported.
- Permission changes may automatically settle related activities before taking effect.
- The master account retains ultimate control over all linked Sub-Accounts.
Final Thoughts
Every crypto journey is different, and the way users manage their assets should reflect that. Whether you’re exploring new opportunities, refining your approach, or scaling your participation in the market, having the right tools can make all the difference. As the digital asset ecosystem continues to develop, users are increasingly looking for solutions that offer greater flexibility without compromising on convenience or control. ZebPay Sub-Accounts are designed to support that journey, enabling users to adapt to changing needs, streamline their trading activities, and approach the next stage of their crypto experience with greater confidence and clarity.
