Update: See comments for details of this promo, it was misleading by American Express.
The Offer
- Receive a sign up bonus of 20,000 Medallion Qualification Miles and 80,000 Delta miles when you spend $3,000 or more on the Platinum Delta SkyMiles Personal credit card from American Express within three months of account opening. You’ll also receive a $100 statement credit after you make a Delta purchase with your new card within the first three months.
Card Details
- Annual fee of $195 is not waived
- Card earns at the following rates:
- 2x miles on all purchases made directly with Delta
- 1x miles on all other purchases
- Receive another 10,000 MQM after you spend $25,000 or more within a calendar year and an additional 10,000 MQM when you spend $50,000 or more within a calendar year for a total of 20,000 MQM (plus the sign up bonus)
- No foreign transaction fees
- Receive a Domestic Main Cabin round-trip companion certificate each year upon renewal of your Card (Payment of the government imposed taxes and fees of no more than $75 for roundtrip domestic flights (for itineraries with up to four flight segments) is required)
Our Verdict
Pretty crazy bonus, previous high (and still available via referral links) was 70,000 miles + 10k MQM + $100. This is an extra 10,000 miles and an extra 10k MQM.
