Abstract
Retail merchants, third-party manufacturers, and/or distributors of retail goods market and distribute promotions to consumers based on the consumers' transaction histories (i.e., users that do not typically purchase a particular brand of soda) and/or award promotions to consumers targeted to a specific item, class or category of item, or characteristic of an item. The promotion redeems and is applied automatically to reduce the purchase amount when the consumer presents a payment method for a transaction for the purchase of a targeted item.
