Sub-Account Creation

SETUP BINANCE

The sub-account is a secondary account linked to your main Binance account. Think of your main account as the “headquarters” and sub-accounts as “separate rooms” where you can organize different activities.

Why is a sub-account needed for qPilot?

  • It separates qPilot operations from the rest of your activities.
  • Greater security: if something goes wrong, your main account remains protected.
  • Clearer management of qPilot performance.
  • Each sub-account can follow only one strategy at a time.

What You Need to Know Before Starting Sub-Account Rules:

  • Each sub-account has an email address different from your main account.
  • Each sub-account has its own independent password.
  • Funds must be deposited directly into the sub-account (no need to transfer from the main account).
  • One sub-account = one qPilot strategy at a time.

Tip: For now, we will create just one. If you want to follow multiple stretegies in the future, you can repeat this procedure to create more sub-accounts.

What You Need Before starting, prepare:

  • An email address different from your main account. You can use an email you already have or create a new one specifically (e.g., on Gmail).
  • A secure password for the sub-account.
  • The phone with Google Authenticator (for 2FA confirmations).

Step 1: Access Sub-Account Management

  • Log in to your Binance account:
    • Go to www.binance.com.
    • Log in with your credentials.
    • Enter the 2FA code from Google Authenticator.
  • Open the side menu: Click on the profile icon at the top right.
  • Go to “Sub Accounts”: In the side menu, look for “Sub Accounts”.
  • Click on “Account Management”:
    • A new page dedicated to sub-accounts will open.
    • You will see an “Account Management” button.
    • Click on this button.

Step 2: Create the Sub-Account

  • Click on “Create Sub Account”:
    • Look for the “Create Sub Account” or “+ Create Sub Account” button.
    • It is usually located at the top right of the page.
  • Choose the sub-account type:
    • Binance will ask you how to create the sub-account.
    • “Create with email” ← CHOOSE THIS OPTION
  • Enter the sub-account email: In the “Email” field, enter an email address different from your main account.
  • Create a password for the sub-account.
  • Confirm the password:
    • In the “Confirm password” field, enter the same password again.
    • Make sure they match perfectly.

Step 3: Confirm Creation

  • Click on “Create” or “Confirm”: After filling in all fields, click on the final button (usually named “Create”, “Confirm”, or “Proceed”).
  • 2FA Verification: Binance will ask you to confirm the operation with Google Authenticator.
    • A popup window will open.
    • You will be asked to enter the 2FA code.
    • Open Google Authenticator on your phone.
    • Find the 6-digit code under “Binance”.
    • Enter it in the Binance window.
    • Click on “Confirm” or “Submit”.
  • Email Confirmation: In addition to the 2FA code, Binance will send a verification code to your main account email.
    • Check the inbox of your main email (the one used for login).
    • You will find an email from Binance with a 6-digit code.
    • Enter the code in the Binance window.
    • Click on “Confirm”.
  • Wait for confirmation:
    • You will see a success message: “Sub-account created successfully”.
    • The new sub-account will appear in your list of sub-accounts.

Important Notes

  • Security:
    • Save the sub-account credentials in a safe place (Email and Password).
    • Do not share these credentials with anyone.
  • Funds Management:
    • The sub-account starts with zero balance.
    • You can deposit funds directly into the sub-account or transfer funds from the main account.
  • Multiple Sub-Accounts: You can repeat this procedure up to 4 times. Each sub-account will have a different email. Each sub-account can follow a different qPilot strategies.
