There’s another round of enhanced (and possibly targeted) welcome offers for some of the American Express Delta consumer credit cards, featuring bonuses that are significantly higher than the current public offers.
Using the public link, I’m only seeing increased offers on the personal Delta cards, but some folks might find better offers for other cards as well, depending on geographic location, browser configuration, etc. (h/t: DOC)
Reader Ryan also shared a link with us that gave offers of up to 125K SkyMiles and featured elevated offers for both business and personal cards. That one requires inputting your name and Delta Sky Miles number, but as an added bonus, the offers through don’t seem to have Amex’s usual once-in-a-lifetime language.
The Deal
- There is a link that can produce enhanced welcome offers for American Express Delta SkyMiles cards (these offers contain Amex’s lifetime language):
- Delta Gold: 85k SkyMiles after $4k spend in six months
- Delta Platinum: 100k SkyMiles after $5k spend in six months
- Delta Reserve: 100k SkyMiles after $6k spend in six months
- Others may see different versions or enhanced offers for additional Delta cards as well
Direct Link to Offer (may need to use a fresh browser or browser instance)
Reader Ryan also shared another link that gave him the following no-lifetime-language offers:
-
- Delta Business Gold: 90k SkyMiles after $4k spend in six months
- Delta Business Platinum: 110k SkyMiles after $6k spend in six months
- Delta Business Reserve: 125k SkyMiles after $10k spend in six months

Quick Thoughts
Using various browser configurations, I found improved offers with bonuses that are 20-45k higher than the current, publicly available versions, the best being 125K for the Delta Reserve Business card.
If you’re in the market for a new Delta card and can get one of these to show up, adding extra SkyMiles to the currently unremarkable public offers is easily the way to go.
Note that all of the offers that I found using the public link did contain Amex’s lifetime language, while the offers that displayed using the reader link did not.

[…] American Express has newly targeted offers for the Delta SkyMiles cards, and they’re pulling up different offers based on the browser used, device type, IP address, and probably the last type of beverage you had. The best offers seem to be:– Personal: Gold 80,000 SkyMiles, Platinum 90,000 SkyMiles, Reserve 100,000 SkyMiles– Business: Gold 90,000 SkyMiles, Platinum 110,000 SkyMiles, Reserve 125,000 SkyMilesBoth the personal and business gold cards have a waived first year annual fee. (Thanks to FM) […]
I think the NLL offer is targeted. I get an error when I input my name and SkyMiles number (“Invalid SkyMiles Number and Last Name”).
yup, not targeted either 🙁
