Environments to try all BlindPay features.
What is an instance?
An instance is an environment in which you can try all BlindPay features.
If your company has multiple environments (sandbox, staging, production), you can create a single instance for each one.
You cannot create instances through the API; you must create them through the BlindPay Dashboard.

Remember: All the payouts made on development instances will not go through the fiat payment rails, so all the fiat payment steps will be skipped.
