I'm aware of reports that Amex Plat credits for certain merchants won't work properly if done via Paypal because the merchant won't be recorded the same to the issuer.

The same thing would likely happen with categories. I don't know myself as I avoid it for this reason.

My PayPal is attached to a card that bonuses everything so I don't have to worry about it.

What is the best card to use for PayPal for points/reward purposes?

For what it is worth, using Paypal on eBay seems to work fine for reward credits on my Amex Plat. The charge shows up as eBay on my amex transaction.
