Systems and methods for providing shared promotion redemptions
Systems, apparatus, methods, and non-transitory media for programmatically grouping consumers are discussed herein. Some embodiments may include a system configured to provide to shared promotion redemptions. The system may include a merchant device with processing circuitry configured to associate multiple consumer accounts with a point-of-sale order. Based on receiving redemption data from a consumer device associated with one of the consumer accounts, the system may be further configured to allow the consumer device to share a selected promotion. For example, the system may determine payment share amounts for each consumer account based on a transaction price of the point-of-sale order and the redemption value of the promotion selected for shared redemption.

identifying secondary consumer account data associated with a secondary consumer device of the one or more secondary consumer devices;
designating the primary consumer device and the one or more secondary consumer devices as a consumer device group;
generating a point-of-sale order associated with the consumer device group;
receiving, via the network, redemption data indicating redemption of a promotion associated with the point-of-sale order;
determining, based on the redemption data, a portion of a redemption value to apply to each consumer device of the consumer device group; and
facilitating a financial transaction for the consumer device group by communicating with the primary consumer device.
8. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein the root communication beacon is a merchant communication beacon located at a merchant location.
9. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein initiating the broadcasting of the beacon identifier is performed in response to receiving a consumer broadcast approval indicator by the primary consumer device.
10. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein facilitating the financial transaction comprises:
facilitating the financial transaction based on the primary consumer account data and the secondary consumer account data.
11. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein determining, based on the redemption data, the portion of the redemption value to apply to each consumer device of the consumer device group comprises:
