Abstract
This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for enabling a merchant or other user to obtain needed capital by financing the cost of individual items after the merchant or other user has acquired the item(s) using a financial instrument, such as a credit card, debit card, or the like. For example, an example merchant may purchase, through the course of a month or other time period, multiple items for operation of their business using a credit card provided by a financial institution. Thereafter, a service provider may aggregate these purchases and enable the merchant to request to finance individual item(s). In response to receiving such a request, the service provider can solicit offers from an array of lenders.
