A method for providing credit to a user includes receiving user data associated with the user and location data associated with a location from a user device of the user over a network. User spending data for the user at the location is then retrieved from a database using the user data and the location data, and the user spending data is used to determine a location-based credit score for the user at the location. In some embodiments, merchant data for the location may also be retrieved to determine whether the location is a trusted merchant location and/or to help determine the location-based credit score. A location-based credit line for the user at the location is created in a database, and a location-based credit offer is sent to the user device over the network that includes an indication of the location-based credit line for the user at the location.
