REQUEST NETWORK
A Decentralized Network for Payment Requests

INTRODUCTION

What are we building?
Request is a layer built upon Ethereum which disintermediates payment requests.

What does that mean?
Every time you receive an invoice, a receipt, or make a payment online, a third party is used to generate and share this request. This third party is usually PayPal, Stripe, or any accounting software.

In the near future, instead of using a third party, youll create your request directly on the blockchain which will enable a seamless payment experience. This process carries a number of benefits:

It will be cheaper
It will be more secure because you wont share your financial information
It will be easier to pay, thanks to the blockchain interoperability between the payee app and the payer app

And this is just the beginning; Request builds upon this concept even further.

Request works with every currency
Request enable accounting in real time
Request improves financial audit with smart algorithms on the blockchain
Most interesting is the fact that Request allows machines to pay each other within a standard framework

The network consists of 3 layers. The core layer includes the most fundamental smart contracts used to create and detect payment requests. The extensions layer adds taxation and business rules. Finally, the application layer allows financial organizations to access invoices and facilitate payments.

The bottom line is that not only do we know how to implement such a process, but we have already created a working prototype. Our team has been working on payment networks and blockchain since 2014, and we are backed by ING bank and the YCombinator which provide valuable advice.
If you want to get involved in our work, the best way to help is to review our whitepaper and highlight anything that you dont find clear enough.

The team look forward to seeing you on our slack!
