Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for processing transactions using policies established via social networks. The system receives, via a communication in a social network, an identification of a merchant at a first time from a recipient associated with a recipient payment account comprising one of a credit payment account and a debit payment account existing prior to the first time. The system associates a policy with an offer. The system monitors, according to the policy, purchases using the recipient payment account at a second time, which is later than the first time, to yield purchasing information. Then, based on the purchasing information, the system can determine whether a qualifying purchase has been initiated at the merchant using the recipient payment account. If the qualifying purchase has been initiated, the system can apply an amount of money associated with the offer. |
