The larger bank issues and processes the credit cards as white label cards, typically for a fee, allowing the smaller bank to brand the cards as their own without having to invest in the necessary infrastructure. There are also white labelled ATMs where a third party sets up an independent ATM network which can facilitate cash withdrawals on behalf of multiple partner banks.
