🆕Sub-Accounts

Sub Accounts are now available on Rails!

Rails sub-accounts let you manage certain account activity independently while keeping everything tied to your primary Rails account and wallet.

chevron-rightWhat is a sub-account?hashtag

A sub-account is a separate account created under your main Rails account, that has its own balance and activity tracking, but uses the same linked and connected wallet as your main account.

How sub-accounts work on Rails

Your Rails account acts as your main account, and is the default account set up when you signup. with Rails.

Each sub-account:

  • Is treated as a separate account

  • Has its own balances and activity

  • Shares the same linked and connected wallet as the main account

  • Transfers between accounts are not supported at this time

At present, your main account is where you:

  • Connect or link a wallet to your account.

  • Find your Daily or Monthly Statements

    • Statements for sub-accounts aren't available just yet, however you can export the data itself from the sub-accounts Portfolio screen.

  • Make Deposits

    • Deposits to sub-accounts are not currently supported, but withdrawals operate similarly to your main account.

When a withdrawal is requested, profits generated above the value of the trading credits are eligible for withdrawal and are subject to an 80/20 profit split, where 80% is paid to the trader and 20% is retained by Rails.

Example:

  • You are granted a $200 trading credit credited to your Rails Play Sub-Account.

  • Your trading activity generates a profit, and the sub-account balance is now $1,198.00.

The available to withdraw amount is calculated as follows:

  • ($1,198 − $200) × 0.8 = $998

  • Additionally, fees are charged at your dynamic fee tier rate

    • Fees in the example here are $0.80

In this example, a request to withdraw $998 from your sub-account equates to a withdrawal total of $797.60 to the user's connected wallet.
