Abstract
Techniques for intelligently modifying capital loan offerings at a point-of-sale (POS) are described. Server(s) can receive, from a first POS device associated with a first merchant, transaction data associated with transaction(s) between the first merchant and customer(s). The server(s) can determine that the first merchant is eligible for a capital loan of a first amount. The server(s) can receive, from a second POS device associated with a second merchant, an authorization request to authorize a payment instrument, having a limit based on the first amount, for a purchase having a purchase amount greater than the first amount, and the server(s) can determine to increase the first amount to a second amount. The server(s) can send, to the second POS device, an indication that the payment instrument is authorized for at least the second amount, thereby modifying the amount of the capital loan at the POS.
