The payrequest object

To accept multiple payments using a single payment payload generated by Speed, you can use payrequest. This service generates LNurl Pay (Lightning) or On-chain (Bitcoin) address payment payload, which your customers can use to make multiple payments by scanning a QR code created from that payload.

Once your customers pay using payrequest, internally system create a payment and marked it as paid, associated with payrequest. This association helps you keep track of which payments are made through payrequest. Moreover, if you're associated to any other Speed account, then, as a platform account you can create a payrequest in any of your connected account.
