The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the user category data comprises at least one of category code data identifying a category code of the first merchant, other user identification data identifying other merchants associated with the category of the first merchant, other user purchase history data associated with purchases previously made by the other merchants in the category, or any combination thereof.

13. A system for providing product data to a first merchant, comprising:

at least one first computing device, configured to:

transmit query data associated with a plurality of queries of a database by the first merchant; and

at least one second computing device, configured to:

receive transaction data associated with a plurality of payment transactions from a plurality of merchants;

receive the query data associated with the plurality of queries of the database by the first merchant;

determine a classification for at least two queries of the plurality of queries;

determine a product associated with the classification of the at least two queries of the plurality of queries;

determine price data of the product based on the transaction data associated with the plurality of payment transactions from the plurality of merchants;

determine a price of the product based on the price data

calculate a potential profit associated with a sale of the product by the first merchant based on the price of the product;

calculate a probability that the first merchant will purchase the product;

calculate a score based on the potential profit and the probability that the first merchant will purchase the product; and

transmit product data associated with the product to the at least one first computing device if the score exceeds a threshold,

wherein the at least one first computing device is further configured to:

receive the product data associated with the product; and
