A Rivr payment device in your browser, against the real test environment. It registers itself, heartbeats, joins the device hub and shows up in GET /api/public/devices — so you can POST /api/public/orders/{id}/send-to-device from your own code and watch the order arrive on screen. Play the customer: pay by invoice, scan the Swish or Vipps QR, or open the checkout link; the order completes for real and your webhook fires.
