I did a search for Paypal and this seemed the closest to what I was looking for.

I've not bothered with the BA Chase Visa (US based) until now but it has a deal where if you spend $30k in a calendar year you get a voucher for a free companion ticket when using miles. I've had a similar voucher with my BA Amex in the UK and it is excellent.

I've just signed up for the card and $30k before the end of the year in personal spend is likely to be difficult for me but a lightbulb came on about using Paypal. It seems a bad way to generate miles from a cost perspective but if I could spend around $30/$1000 to get this voucher it could be worth doing.

Is the information in this thread from 2years back still relevant?

Thanks
