i not sure if this is the best way to handle it... but check these marked lines in a script
in your case i'd use
while test $# -gt 0; do
case "$1" in
-payload)
shift
PAYLOAD=$1
;;
*)
# Catch other parameters here
# this part is not relevant
# to the answer but I added it
# to avoid infinite loop mentioned
shift
;;
esac
done
