[YMMV] American Express Delta Offers – Up To 125,000 Miles No Lifetime Language

Update 8/14/25: New link, need to log into Delta to view offers. 

Update 7/24/25: I got an email with this new link (open it incognito) with no lifetime language. It shows all of the increased offers, even a bit higher this time. YMMV, check your email for [email protected] or try the link and see if it works.

The Offers

Direct link to offer (if you get the message ‘PLEASE VERIFY THE INFORMATION YOU ENTERED IS CORRECT AND TRY AGAIN.’ then it means you’re not targeted)

  • Delta/American Express have sent out a number of targeted offers on the co-branded cards.
    • Personal:
      • Gold: 70,000 Bonus Miles
      • Platinum: 90,000 Bonus Miles
      • Reserve: 100,000 Bonus Miles
    • Business:
      • Gold Business: 80,000 Bonus Miles
        Platinum Business: 100,000 Bonus Miles.
        Reserve Business: 110,000 Bonus Miles

The Fine Print

Our Verdict

Previously the offers with no lifetime language have been 60,000 miles + $50 statement credit on the Gold card and lower bonuses on the other two cards. We’ve never seen that $200 statement credit deal as far as I’m aware. The downside to that offer is the $1,000 in Delta spend required. I imagine a lot of people would just prefer the 75,000 + $50 deal as a single purchase triggers the $50 credit rather than requiring $1,000 in spend.

If you’re targeted and have had the card before then I think either deal is worth doing as normally you wouldn’t be eligible for the sign up bonus again (even if you won’t hit the $1,000 in Delta spend required for the $200 bonus). As always read these things everybody should know about American Express if you have any questions. I’ll be creating a special ‘targeted/ymmv’ section of our best credit card bonus page and adding this bonus there.
