Patent attributes
In some examples, a computing device receives, from a point of sale (POS) device of a merchant, an authorization request for authorizing a payment instrument for a transaction for an item. The computing device sends an authorization approval to the POS device, and determines that a user is eligible for a loan for an amount and the loan is to be repaid at a particular frequency during a period of time. The computing device determines that an amount of the transaction is less than or equal to the amount, and causes an offer for the loan to be presented via a user interface of a payment application that is executable by a user device of the user. Based on acceptance of the loan, the computing device applies the loan funds to the transaction for the item, and the loan is repaid at the particular frequency.
