A user is able to change one or more payment options after payment has already been made to a merchant. A payment provider processes a payment request during a transaction with the merchant with default or selected payment options. After the transaction with the merchant is completed and the merchant has been paid, the user may change one or more of the payment options, such as funding source(s) and terms/conditions of payment (e.g., deferment period, installment period/amount, etc.). During the transaction, the user may make a purchase through the payment provider even if the user does not have an account with the payment provider by providing user information, such as name, address, phone number, email address, and date of birth, but not a social security number or funding source information.
