Main Account

Account in Twilio is your main account, i.e. the account you created when you first signed up with Twilio. You can also create more accounts called Subaccounts. Subaccounts are useful for things like segmenting phone numbers and usage data for your customers and controlling access to data. For more information on subaccounts, see Using Subaccounts.
