## Contracts Overview
Request Network smart contracts are available [here](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/tree/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts).
## Contracts type
There are three types of contracts
* **Storage** - These store [Content Identifiers (CIDs)](https://docs.ipfs.tech/concepts/content-addressing/) for Requests stored in IPFS.
* **Payments** - These process various payment types, also known as [Payment Networks](https://docs.request.network/advanced/protocol-overview/how-payment-networks-work), and are deployed across many [Supported Chains](https://docs.request.network/general/supported-chains).
* **REQ Token and Burn Mechanism** - These lock, bridge, and burn REQ tokens each time a Request is stored.
### Storage
#### [RequestOpenHashSubmitter](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/RequestOpenHashSubmitter.sol)
Declares data hashes and collects the fees.
After a request has been sent to IPFS, the hash is declared to the whole request network system through the RequestHashStorage.
Anyone can submit hashes.
#### [StorageFeeCollector](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/StorageFeeCollector.sol)
Manages the fees for the creation of a request.
#### [RequestHashStorage](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/RequestHashStorage.sol)
This contract is the entry point to retrieve all the hashes of the request network system.
### Payments
#### [ERC20FeeProxy](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/ERC20FeeProxy.sol)
Performs an ERC20 token transfer with a payment reference and a transfer to a second address for the payment of a fee.
#### [ERC20Proxy](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/ERC20Proxy.sol)
Performs an ERC20 token transfer with a payment reference and a transfer to a second address.
#### [EthereumFeeProxy](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/EthereumFeeProxy.sol)
This contract performs an Ethereum transfer with a Fee sent to a third address and stores a reference.
#### [EthereumProxy](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/EthereumProxy.sol)
This contract performs an Ethereum transfer sent to a third address and stores a reference.
#### [ERC20EscrowToPay](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/ERC20EscrowToPay.sol)
This contract allows users to lock funds in an escrow and perform payments in ERC20. It contains a refund and emergency feature to unlock funds if needed.
#### [BatchConversionPayments](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/BatchConversionPayments.sol)
This contract makes multiple conversion payments with a payment references, in one transaction.
#### [BatchNoConversionPayments](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/BatchNoConversionPayments.sol)
This contract makes multiple payments with payment references, in one transaction.
This contract makes multiple payments with references, in one transaction, without conversion.
#### [ERC20SwapToPay](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/ERC20SwapToPay.sol)
This contract swaps ERC20 tokens before paying a request such that the payer sends currency A, but payee receives currency B.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Swap-to-Pay is different from Conversion.** For details see [#difference-between-conversion-swap-to-pay-and-swap-to-conversion](https://docs.request.network/advanced/how-payment-networks-work#difference-between-conversion-swap-to-pay-and-swap-to-conversion "mention")
{% endhint %}
#### [ERC20ConversionProxy](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/Erc20ConversionProxy.sol)
This contract uses a chainlink price feed to pay a request denominated in one currency (usually a fiat currency like USD) but paid in an on-chain currency. This variant supports ERC20 payments.
#### [ETHConversionProxy](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/EthConversionProxy.sol)
This contract uses a chainlink price feed to pay a request denominated in one currency (usually a fiat currency like USD) but paid in an on-chain currency. This variant supports native currency payments.
#### [ERC20SwapToConversion](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/ERC20SwapToConversion.sol)
This contract combines "conversion" and "swap-to-pay". It executes an ERC20 swap before paying a request denominated in one currency (usually a fiat currency like USD) but paid in an on-chain currency. This variant supports ERC20 payments.
#### [ERC20TransferableReceivable](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/ERC20TransferableReceivable.sol)
This contract allows minting requests as NFTs thus allowing them to be transferred. The owner of the request NFT receives the payment.
#### [**ERC20SingleRequestProxy**](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/ERC20SingleRequestProxy.sol)
A contract that allows payment through the [#erc20feeproxy](#erc20feeproxy "mention") without having to make a function call.
#### [**EthereumSingleRequestProxy**](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/EthereumSingleRequestProxy.sol)
A contract that allows payment through [#ethereumfeeproxy](#ethereumfeeproxy "mention") without having to make a function call.
#### [**SingleRequestProxyFactory**](https://github.com/RequestNetwork/requestNetwork/blob/master/packages/smart-contracts/src/contracts/SingleRequestProxyFactory.sol)
A factory smart contract responsible for deploying [#erc20singlerequestproxy](#erc20singlerequestproxy "mention") and [#ethereumsinglerequestproxy](#ethereumsinglerequestproxy "mention") contracts.
