Chift gives you two ways to build on top of your end-users’ financial tools. Both start from the same connectors, consumers, and connections. What differs is who writes the integration logic and who triggers it.
Before you build: set up your account in the Platform first. Configure your account, activate the connectors you need, and create an API key. Full setup lives in the Platform tab.

Unified API

You build the integration and you have the lead. You call Chift’s endpoints directly and read or write your end-users’ data whenever your product needs to.

Syncs

Chift builds the integration and triggers the flows. We set up the synchronization with you and run it on an event or a schedule, with no integration code on your side.

​
How they compare

Most developers start with the Unified API. Syncs suit teams who would rather delegate both the build and the running of the flow to Chift.
