A notification message system can use a payment request message during an authorization process to generate a message recommending a tip amount. A customer provides a payment card number at a merchant. A merchant initiates an authorization request using the payment card number and an amount. The authorization message is transmitted to a merchant-acquirer, who then transmits the authorization message to issue processing system, who in turn transmits the authorization message to a consumer computing system. The consumer computing system can use an industry code to determine whether the merchant is one that customarily receives a tip. The consumer computing system calculates a suggested tip amount based on the transaction amount, then generates a message with the tip amount and pushes the message to a mobile device of the user associated with the payment card number. The customer can continue the transaction using that tip amount.
