receiving, via one or more processors, a funding request regarding settlement of a completed transaction involving an item purchased for a first price, the request received from a provider of the item and including transaction information associated with the completed transaction, the transaction information including an amount of the first price;
in response to receiving the transaction information, determining, based on the amount of the first price received with the transaction information, an identifier associated with the item;
