Security Requirement:Before you can create or use sub-accounts and API, Binance requires you to have at least two security methods enabled:
- E-Mail verification (standard, always required).
- Plus one more method, such as:
- ✅ Google Authenticator (recommended)
- ✅ SMS Authentication
- ✅ Security Key (YubiKey, etc.)
- To enable this:
- Log in to your Binance account on the web and go to your dashboard.
- On the left-hand side, click Account → Security.
- Add and activate at least one extra security method next to your email.
Create a Sub-Account (Optional but Recommended)
A Sub-Account allows you to separate unCoded’s trading activity from your personal trades.
- Log in to your Binance account on the web and go to your dashboard.
- With your security settings correctly configured, select Sub-Accounts from the left-hand menu.
- Choose Account Management.
- Click “Create Sub Account”.
- Choose the account type:
- email (recommended): A dedicated login for the sub-account.
- Virtual email: No separate login.
- With real Email Sub Account: After the sub account is created, go back to Account Management, find the new sub account, click the three dots and select Switchable.
- This lets you switch accounts from your profile (top-right) and gives the sub account the same UI as the main account.
- Fund the Sub-Account:
- In the drop down of the Sub Accounts, go to the Asset Management.
- In the row of your new sub account choose Transfer In.
- On the transfer page:
- Select the currency (USDC, FDUSD, or BNB).
- Enter the amount to transfer.
- Confirm the transfer.
- Recommended funding:
- USDC → for users within the EU (stable and widely supported).
- FDUSD (recommended) → for users outside the EU, since Binance offers zero trading fees with FDUSD pairs.
- BNB → keep at least ~$50 worth. Binance uses BNB to pay fees and gives you a 25% discount on every trade.
