Using credit card different than pax name

Hi guys,

I bought my gf a plane ticket on COPA last year but had problems buying the ticket for her with my credit card as the pax name and cc name obviously didn't match. So, I had to use OTA such as orbitz to get around this.

However, I recently just bought a plane ticket YUL-CDG for my parents on AC from their website (non-OTA) with my credit card. In this case, the pax and cc names don't match.

This got me thinking. When do airlines accept that the cc and pax names be different?

Thanks!
