Set up a live account

Connect BT Gateway to your real Banca Transilvania trading account. Orders placed through this account move real money — if you're just curious how things work, the demo setup is the safer place to start.

1. Prerequisites

  • An active bt-trade.ro account you can sign into via the BT website today.
  • The phone that receives BT's SMS codes on every sign-in.
  • A Google account for the BT Gateway dashboard.

2. Forward BT's SMS codes to BT Gateway

BT requires an SMS code each time a fresh login is needed. A tiny automation on your phone forwards that code to BT Gateway, so the sign-in completes without you copying anything manually.

On iPhone (Shortcuts)

  1. Install the ntfy app from the App Store.
  2. Open Shortcuts → Automation → New → Message.
  3. Set the trigger to From contact with BT's sender ID (typically BT or BT24), and turn on Run immediately.
  4. Add a Get contents of URL action: method POST, URL is the forwarder address shown on your BT Gateway dashboard, body is the SMS text.

On Android

Use Tasker or MacroDroid with an “SMS Received” trigger and a matching HTTP POST action.

3. Add your credentials in the dashboard

  1. Open the BT Gateway dashboard and sign in with Google.
  2. Go to Settings → Credentials, switch the toggle at the top to live, and enter your BT username and password.
  3. The dashboard shows your personal forwarder URL — copy it into the automation you set up in step 2.

Your password is encrypted at rest. We never see it again after you enter it, and it's only used to sign in to your BT account on your behalf.

4. First sign-in

Click Refresh account data. BT sends an SMS, your phone forwards it over, and BT Gateway signs you in. After this, the connection stays alive on its own — no more codes to type.

5. Connect Claude (optional)

In Claude, go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, and paste:

https://bt-gateway.bogdanripa.com/mcp

Sign in with Google when prompted, pick live, and choose whether Claude can just look (read-only) or also place orders. For a real-money account we suggest read-only at first — you can always grant write access later.

Optional: API keys for scripts

If you want to drive the account from your own code, go to Settings → Access and create an API key. Each key can be scoped to specific markets, currencies, or symbols, and you can make it read-only so it can't place orders even if it leaks.
