[YMMV] American Express Delta Offers – Up To 110,000 Miles No Lifetime Language

Update 4/8/24: Available again.

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.
  • Amex Delta Gold: 70,000 miles after $3,000 in spend
  • Amex Delta Platinum: 90,000 miles after $4,000 in spend
  • Amex Delta Reserve: 100,000 miles after $6,000 in spend

Business versions are the same but an extra 10,000 miles.

 

The Fine Print

• These offers does not have the once per lifetime language, but please double check your own offer.
• Offers valid until February 20th, 2019

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.
