1. A system, comprising:

  • one or more servers including;

    communication circuitry configured to communicate with consumer devices and merchant devices via a network, wherein the merchant devices are associated with a plurality of merchant locations; and

    processing circuitry configured to;

    receive, via the network, transaction data from the merchant devices;

    determine an activity level score for each of the plurality of merchant locations based on the transaction data;

    receive, via the network and from a consumer device, consumer device location data indicating a consumer device location of the consumer device;

    determine, at least in part by comparing the consumer device location and the plurality of merchant locations, a local merchant location subset proximate to the consumer device location;

    determine, at least in part by comparing the activity level score for each local merchant location of the local merchant location subset, a relative activity level score for each local merchant location of the local merchant locations;

    generate a consumer interface including an ambient map display, wherein the ambient map display comprises a local merchant location indicator set associated with the local merchant location subset, and wherein at least one local merchant location indicator of the local merchant location indicator set is visually enhanced based on the relative activity level score for the local merchant location of the local merchant location indicator set; and

    provide the consumer interface to the consumer device via the network.
