ABSTRACT:
A method of processing a purchase card transaction includes receiving a transaction request at a host computer system from a point-of-sale device of a first merchant. The transaction request comprises transaction details relating to a purchase from the first merchant using a private label purchase card relating to a second merchant and an issuer. The first merchant and the second merchant are different merchants. The transaction details comprise at least an identifier relating to the first merchant, an amount, and an account identifier relating to the private label purchase card. The method further includes evaluating at least a portion of the account identifier, recognizing that the account identifier relates to the issuer, routing at least a portion of the transaction request to the issuer, and facilitating a payment from the issuer to the first merchant.
