Rules for Linking Separate Trading and Staking Accounts

Article Hyperliquid docs

Summary

This support note explains how linking works when a user keeps trading and staking on separate accounts. Linking is unnecessary if both activities use the same account. To establish a link, the trading account must initiate an action, after which the staking account completes the process. The note says the link is permanent and cannot be undone or reassigned to a different trading account.

A linked staking account does not receive staking-related fee discounts, according to the document. These details matter when choosing how to arrange accounts, since linking changes fee treatment and cannot later be reversed. The note is operational guidance rather than a trading method or analysis: it offers no fee amounts, examples of trading costs, or comparison of account setups. It also directs readers to separate documentation for further information, so the precise mechanics and current terms are not fully covered here.

Key ideas

  • Account linking is intended for users who keep staking and trading on separate accounts.
  • The trading account initiates the link, and the staking account finalizes it.
  • The link is permanent and cannot be removed or moved to another trading account.
  • A linked staking account no longer receives staking-related fee discounts.
  • The note does not quantify fees or compare alternative account arrangements.
