Escrow Payment

Escrow

The Request Network Escrow isn't a separate payment network. Rather, it builds on top of the ERC20_FEE_PROXY_CONTRACT payment network.

Typical Workflow

  1. Using the request-client.js package, the payer creates a request with the ERC20_FEE_PROXY_CONTRACT payment network.
  2. Using the payment-processor package, payer:
    1. Approves the escrow contract using approveErc20ForEscrow()
    2. Pays the escrow contract using payEscrow()
    3. Waits until the work is complete
    4. Pays the payee from the Escrow contract using payRequestFromEscrow()

These steps are shown by our unit tests:
