Abstract
Some examples include a payment processing system that receives transaction information of transactions performed between a plurality of merchants and a plurality of buyers, and receives an indication of an invoice generated by a first merchant and payable by a purchasing entity. The payment processing system may determine terms for payment of the invoice based on at least one of: (a) transaction information received from a first computing device of the first merchant configured as a point of sale terminal; (b) transaction information of at least one related merchant determined based on at least one of: a geographic location related to the purchasing entity, or a business type related to the purchasing entity; (c) transaction information of the purchasing entity; or (d) one or more characteristics of the invoice. The payment processing system transmits the terms to the first merchant, and may receive an acceptance from the first merchant.
