Technologies for managing payment authorization request messaging for payment transactions include a transaction management controller. The transaction management controller receives a transaction amount for a payment transaction from a business management engine and a payment transaction type from a point of interaction device. The transaction management controller initializes a transaction processing module that corresponds to the received payment transaction type. The transaction processing module defines payment processing parameters for processing payment transactions of the payment transaction type. One or more of the payment processing parameters are modified based on configuration data received from a remote configuration device. The transaction management controller processes the payment transaction as a function of the payment processing parameters. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
