TLDR : Answer Summary
To obtain a tourist visa to Thailand from Pakistan, it's noted that financial sponsorship is not mandatory. Applicants can apply online and simply need to have a minimum of 20,000 THB in their bank account, along with confirmed flight tickets and hotel bookings.

All he needs is 20,000 THB in the bank, confirmed flight tickets and hotels. No need of a sponsor.

He doesn’t have money in any bank account under his name, that’s why I’m acting as sponsor. Would it matter if the hotel bookings are in my name?
