Portable business identity
Change the payment setup, not the address
A business publishes one durable OPID on invoices, websites and QR codes. That OPID delegates to a replaceable receiver configuration, so the business can reorganise providers without reissuing its public address.
Verified resolution path
Stable public OPID

Put this address on long-lived public material.
Current receiver configuration
https://openpaymentaddress.org/examples/multi-rail
Replace this target when the payment setup changes.
The payer fetches and verifies both records. Delegation changes where the OPID resolves; it does not conceal the route or silently redirect a web request.

This is the actual payment file for this example. A payment app reads it to find out what the address means; people do not have to understand or edit the code.
