Comparing and Syncing Payout Settings Across ViaBTC Subaccounts
2026-10-25 17:36

Operators managing multiple ViaBTC subaccounts can use Multi-Account Comparison to review auto-withdrawal settings for the same coin, then use Sync Settings to copy the current account’s configuration to selected accounts. Start at Assets → My Assets → the relevant coin → Auto-withdrawal Settings, then choose Multi-Account Comparison or Sync Settings. Compare first, and sync only accounts that should share the same withdrawal arrangement.

These tools are useful when managing different farms, hosted customers, or internal cost centers. This guide focuses on the auto-withdrawal settings page: what to compare, how to sync, and which details to check afterward.

What ViaBTC Subaccounts Separate

A ViaBTC subaccount functions as a subsidiary mining account under a main account. Each subaccount reports its own hashrate and mining income separately. Subaccounts can help organize different mining farms, groups of miners, authorized accounts, or payout destinations, and each can have a different auto-withdrawal address and notification email (ViaBTC subaccounts).

Mining settlement credits rewards to the pool account; auto-withdrawal governs the subsequent transfer of an eligible balance. Comparing or syncing withdrawal settings does not change hashrate, mining performance, or credited mining rewards.

Settings to Compare Before Changing Anything

Review the following fields for each coin and account. This checklist includes details to inspect separately; it is not a list of fields guaranteed to appear in Multi-Account Comparison or be copied by Sync Settings.

Setting What it controls When matching across accounts is useful When a difference is likely intentional
Withdrawal destination Where an eligible balance is sent Several subaccounts should consolidate to one treasury wallet Separate customers, farms, or cost centers require distinct destinations
Destination type External address versus the user’s own ViaBTC account Internal consolidation across owned accounts One group withdraws externally while another stays within ViaBTC
Minimum payout amount The balance threshold required for an eligible payout Accounts should use the same minimum payout threshold A receiving platform or wallet has its own minimum-deposit requirement
Auto-withdrawal status Whether automatic withdrawals are enabled All selected accounts should withdraw automatically A balance is deliberately retained in the pool account
Payout mode Which balance is used in the withdrawal calculation Accounts share the same reconciliation approach One account needs daily accounting separation and another does not

Matching minimum payout thresholds does not guarantee matching payout dates: accounts may accumulate eligible balances at different rates.

Using Multi-Account Comparison

On the relevant coin’s Auto-withdrawal Settings page, select Multi-Account Comparison. ViaBTC documents comparison of the withdrawal address, minimum payout amount, and auto-withdrawal status across accounts for the same coin (ViaBTC auto-withdrawal settings).

Use this view to spot an address that was not updated after a wallet change or an account where auto-withdrawal is disabled. Comparison only displays settings; it does not modify them. A difference is a reason to check the intended configuration, not automatically a reason to sync.

Using Sync Settings

Once you have confirmed which accounts should share the same configuration:

  1. Open the relevant coin’s Auto-withdrawal Settings page in the account whose settings you want to copy.
  2. Check that this source account’s configuration is correct.
  3. Select Sync Settings.
  4. Choose the target main account or subaccounts, then click Next.
  5. Complete the platform’s security verification to finish syncing.

ViaBTC’s auto-withdrawal guide lists the withdrawal address, minimum payout amount, and auto-withdrawal status among the settings included in the sync action. It also warns that one-click sync applies all current settings, so review the source configuration and selected targets carefully before confirming (ViaBTC auto-withdrawal settings).

The January 2026 Assets-section upgrade announcement covers both auto-withdrawal and auto-conversion management. Its broader list includes withdrawal type and conversion direction; conversion direction should not be treated as an auto-withdrawal field merely because it appears in that announcement (Assets-section upgrade announcement). Review the fields presented in the relevant settings page before proceeding.

Sync only accounts that are meant to share the same withdrawal arrangement. For example, a hosting operator may compare customer subaccounts while preserving each customer’s distinct withdrawal address.

Check Payout Mode Separately

ViaBTC offers two auto-withdrawal payout modes. The main account and each subaccount can configure their own mode independently (auto-withdrawal payout mode).

Payout mode Documented payout amount formula
Payout by Account Balance Account balance at the time of payment
Payout by Daily Earnings Account balance minus that day’s settled mining earnings

Payout by Daily Earnings reserves mining earnings settled on the payout day. Eligible amounts can accumulate over multiple completed natural days when the applicable minimum payout amount has not been reached.

This can help with daily accounting, but the payment is not guaranteed to equal only completed-day mining earnings. Deposits, manual withdrawals, coin exchanges, and other asset activity can change the balance; revenue-sharing payments can also affect the final amount.

The official documentation does not explicitly confirm whether Sync Settings includes payout mode. Independent configuration alone does not establish that the field is excluded from a bulk sync. Check the mode on each target account afterward and adjust it if needed, rather than assuming it was either copied or preserved.

Post-Sync Checks

Reopen Multi-Account Comparison and confirm the withdrawal address, minimum payout amount, and auto-withdrawal status for all selected accounts. Check destination type and payout mode separately where needed.

Auto-withdrawal Change Records can help review changes to the withdrawal switch, address, and minimum payout amount (ViaBTC auto-withdrawal settings).

For inactive accounts, also check both the withdrawal switch and saved address. The auto-withdrawal guide, updated September 24, 2026, states that an on-chain payout address becomes invalid after 90 consecutive days without a payment. The January 27, 2026 upgrade announcement separately describes automatic deactivation of on-chain auto-withdrawal after 30 consecutive days without a triggered withdrawal. These concern different states; the cited documents do not explain how the two rules operate together. Confirm the account’s current status before relying on its previous configuration.

Destination type also matters when comparing thresholds. ViaBTC lists 0.001 BTC as the minimum auto-withdrawal payment to an external address. For withdrawals to the user’s own ViaBTC main account or subaccount, the minimum payment amount does not apply as long as the withdrawal amount is greater than zero (ViaBTC auto-withdrawal settings).

Conclusion

Multi-Account Comparison helps identify differences in subaccount auto-withdrawal settings, while Sync Settings reduces repeated setup for accounts that should share the same configuration. Verify the source settings, select targets carefully, and review the results—including payout mode—after syncing. Preserve deliberate differences between farms, hosted customers, or accounting arrangements.

FAQ

Does Sync Settings copy the payout mode along with other settings?

The official documentation does not explicitly confirm whether payout mode is included. It lists withdrawal address, minimum payout amount, and auto-withdrawal status among the synced settings. Check payout mode on each target account after syncing.

Can I sync settings from a subaccount to the main account?

Yes. ViaBTC’s Assets-section upgrade announcement states that settings can be synced between the main account and subaccounts, or among subaccounts. Verify the source account and selected targets before confirming.

What happens if I sync settings to an account that should keep a different withdrawal address?

Syncing can overwrite that account’s intended address with the source account’s configuration. Exclude accounts that need a different destination, and use Multi-Account Comparison to review them without changing their settings.

Will the same minimum payout amount make all subaccounts pay out on the same day?

No. Accounts may accumulate eligible balances at different rates, and payout mode and destination type also affect which amounts qualify for withdrawal.
