It's not entirely stupid. It might not have been what they had in mind, but in Europe it's possible to create self-billing invoices.

AWE does this for example.

Although it's probably not possible to do in all countries - the UK website requires both parties to be VAT registered for instance, which wouldn't work well for a sponsor.
