Amex Delta Cards, New Targeted Offers with NO Lifetime Language (YMMV)

Amex Delta Cards, Big Targeted Offers with NO Lifetime Language (YMMV)

American Express and Delta Air Lines are once again targeting select SkyMiles members with increased welcome bonuses. The offers were sent out by email, and include a link where you can apply. But there is also a link where you can check if you are eligible. These offers are a good opportunity to earn more Delta SkyMiles, since they don’t have the usual lifetime language either. But, always double check your own offer to be sure.

Update 2: Here’s a new link. If eligible, you should see a Delta Gold 75K offer, Delta Platinum 85K, and Delta Reserve 100K. 

Update: More people are now targeted for some of these offers. Check the offer link by logging in with your SkyMiles account credentials. If you can’t log in (message “PLEASE VERIFY THAT THE INFORMATION YOU ENTERED IS CORRECT AND TRY AGAIN”), it means that you are not targeted. This aligns with the new public offers that launched recently.

How To Get The Offer

To see if you are targeted for this offer, you can check the link here and log in with your SkyMiles credentials. You should also check your email for the offer, titled “Name, Earn 60,000 Bonus Miles With This Special Offer”. If you can’t log in, it means that you are not eligible.

Amex Lifetime Rule

American Express restricts you to just one sign up bonus per credit card product. That’s once per lifetime. Even if you previously had the card and didn’t receive a bonus (maybe during your pre-churning days), you won’t be eligible for a bonus on the same card.

However this offer does not seem to have that language so that means that you are able to get the bonus even if you have had the card in the past. Just make sure to check your own offer thoroughly to see if it has this lifetime restriction.

Guru’s Wrap-Up

These are pretty good bonuses for all Delta cards, but we have seen a bit better in the past. However this is a good opportunity considering there’s no lifetime language. These chances to get a second bonus on the same Amex card don’t come around often. But if you are eligible for a bonus you can just go ahead and apply for one of the offers that are publicly available.

Let me know in the comments in anyone gets lucky with these offers, or if you see any different offers.
