NDA

You are only permitted to use the Bittylicious client if you have filled in the NDA. This is available in the following formats:

  • PDF (preferred, but do not use Adobe Reader. On Windows, use something like Foxit Reader)
  • ODF (OpenOffice/LibreOffice)
  • DOC (Microsoft Word; use only as a last resort)

Please fill in the relevant files and email admin@bittylicious.com. Also state which type of bank account (see below) you use.

Overall client setup

In order to run the Bittylicious client, you must have:

  • PHP working via the command line.
  • The PHP cURL module.
  • Your OpenSSL private key saved as private.key in the Bittylicious client directory.
  • The bank account details set up as per the Bank account setup section.

The Bittylicious client checks whether you have any active trades from Bittylicious every 60 seconds. If one is active, it will log into your bank account to fetch a transaction list. If a transaction matches, the client will sign the transaction on your behalf and notify Bittylicious that the trade has been found.
