For the standard API setup flow shared by all funder integrations, see Set up a funder API integration. This article covers Bitty Advance-specific details.
When you submit to Bitty Advance via API, MCA Pilot automatically submits the deal info and files, and brings the response straight into the deal — including declines and offers.
Tip: If you hover over the submission, you'll see an Open in Bitty button that opens the submission directly in your Bitty Advance portal.
