  • the processor(s) may be further configured to transmit a gift incentive offer to one or more computing devices associated with the consumer.
  • the processor(s) may be further configured to transmit the gift incentive offer to one or more digital wallets associated with one or more prospective customers.
  • there may be a one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, or many-to-many relationship of digital wallets to consumers. That is, a single consumer may be associated with one or multiple digital wallets. Likewise, more than one consumer may be associated with a single digital wallet in much the same sense as a bank account may be associated with more than one authored users. Further alternatively, more than one consumer may be associated with one or more digital wallets.

In some implementations of the system, the gift incentive offer may be gifted by the consumer only to one or more cohorts of prospective consumers. In some implementations, a merchant may define one or more authorized cohorts to which a gift incentive offer may be transferred. In some implementations of the system, the one or more authorized cohorts of prospective consumers may be defined at least in part using data received from the merchant.
