White-label
A product sold under the buyer’s brand: their logo, colors and domain on software someone else builds and runs.
In a multi-tenant product, white-label is a set of per-client settings: logo, colors, email sender, custom domain and sometimes their own login. Done as settings, it stays one product with one release; done as a copy of the code per client, every client becomes a separate product to maintain.
