It wouldn't have even occurred to me that this would be an issue (it isn't in GOES, where the payment is done online), but did come across this, which I wasn't sure was a credible source:

"Note: If you are paying with a credit card, that credit card will likely have to be in your name."
Any experiences? Thanks in advance!
The applicant for PreCheck need not be the person who shows up to pay for the PreCheck application for another person.
