1. How to Create a Sub-Account

Step 1. Go to https://www.kucoin.tr  and click Account Overview - Sub-Account.

 

 

Step 2. Click Create Sub-Account, fill in the namepassword, and remarks (optional) to proceed. The name of the sub-account must be unique and cannot be modified once created.

 

 

Step 3. Verify your trading password, email code and G2FA or Trading password and SMS code.

 

 

Step 4. If you wish to bind other security settings such as email or phone, please return to the Master account's Sub Account Management> Configure>Reset Google 2FA to set Google 2FA 

Once you have set the Google 2FA for the sub-account via Master account's Sub Account Management page, you may log in to the respective sub account's security settings page to bind other security settings.

Otherwise, an error message as below will be prompted.

 

2. Sub-Account Functionality

In general, Sub-Accounts CAN do the same things as the Master Account, including:

(1) Login

 

(2) Transfer of funds

 

(3) Configuration of security settings such as Google 2FA, trading password and etc

 

(5) Creation of APIs (10 per sub-account)

 

(6) Trading in KuCoin TR Spot

 

However, there are also a few things a Sub-Account CANNOT do, including:

(1) Withdrawal of funds.

You must transfer funds to the Master Account to make a withdrawal.

(2) Participate in most events and campaigns on KuCoin TR as specified in the activity rules.

 

3. The Relationship Between the Master and Sub-Accounts

(1) Sub-Account Creation

You can only create the Sub-Account under your Master Account. Each Master Account can create up to 100 Sub-Accounts.

(2) KYC & Trading Fee Tier

The Master Account and all Sub-Accounts share the same KYC level and trading fee tier. This means that you do not need to submit KYC Verification again if the Master Account has already done so. All the trading volume and trading fees will be accumulated in the Master Account.

(3) Security Settings

The Master Account has the right to freeze & unfreeze all Sub-Accounts and change security settings such as the password, trading password, and Google 2FA.

(4) Master Account Rights

The master account has absolute control over the sub-account, and can control the creation of the sub-account and the transfer of funds.

As the crypto industry continues to evolve, KuCoin TR noticed a growing demand for better management of multiple exchange accounts. KuCoin TR allows you to create Sub-Accounts under one Master Account to improve the efficiency of account management.
