Zusammenfassung:	A computer-implemented method and system to facilitate a purchase. A request for payment for a charge by a provider to a customer having a plurality of accounts is received at a host computer. At least one of the accounts qualifies for pre-tax treatment and at least one account does not qualify for pre-tax treatment. A hold is placed on funds in one or more of the plurality of accounts sufficient to cover the charge. The host determines whether the charge qualifies for pre-tax treatment. If the charge qualifies for pre-tax treatment, then at least the account qualifying for pre-tax treatment is debited for some or all of the charge.
