Abstract

In some examples, a payment processing system may send, based on transaction information received from a plurality of merchant devices, an incentive for a first merchant to whom financing has been provided, to achieve a performance target during a specified time period. For instance, the incentive may include a proposed modification to repayment terms for the financing to be implemented if the merchant achieves the performance target during the specified time period. The system may track transactions processed for the first merchant during the specified time period. Based on the tracking, the system may determine that the merchant has achieved the performance target during the specified time period for receiving the incentive, and may implement the modification of the repayment terms for the financing for the first merchant.
