The inquiry module is configured to: (i) determine if an available balance of a primary account associated with the account identifier is less than the payment amount; and (ii) determine if the account identifier is associated with a secondary account if the available balance of the primary account is less than the payment amount, the secondary account being associated with a customer financial asset. The authorisation module is configured to: (i) transmit, to a customer electronic device, an authorisation request if it is determined that the customer is associated with the secondary account, the authentication request comprising a request to process the payment transaction using the customer financial asset; and (ii) receive, from the customer electronic device, an authorisation response indicating if the payment transaction is to be processed using the customer financial asset.
