Abstract
In some examples, a computing device of a service provider receives, via a user interface of a merchant and in association with a transaction between a customer and the merchant, a request to finance the transaction. The service provider determines, based at least on information about the transaction and/or historical transaction data of the customer, that the customer is eligible for receiving financing for the transaction. The service provider customizes an offer for the user for an amount to be financed, a payment plan for repayment of the amount over two or more installments, and a fee to be paid to the service provider. In response to receiving an indication that the customer accepts the offer via an interaction with a user interface of the customer, transferring funds from the financing service provider to the merchant prior to the customer having paid the two or more installments.
