The New York Post
reports (my emphasis)
Tech billionaire and loyal Trump supporter Peter Thiel, also added to the [transition] team Friday, will have a leadership role...
I
called it at the time of the donation in October:
It is a shrewd move by the cagey billionaire. Trump doesn't have a lot of friends right now and his odds of winning are shrinking fast but in the event Trump does win, he will remember that Thiel stepped up to the plate for him in his darkest hour.
Given the balance in Thiel's checking account, the $1.25 million is nothing relative to the payoff if Trump somehow does pulloff an upset win.
