Amex Delta Gold Card, 50K Miles +$500 Offer with Dummy Booking

The Delta SkyMiles® Gold American Express Card has a much improved welcome bonus when booking a flight (dummy booking). Instead of the current public offer for 80,000 miles, you can earn 50,000 miles and a $500 credit instead. Let’s see the details of the offer, and how you can find it.

Signup Bonus Details

  • Earn 50,000 Bonus Miles after spending $3,000 in purchases on your new Card in your first 6 months.
  • You can also earn a $500 statement credit after you make a Delta purchase with your new Card within your first 6 months.
  • $0 Introductory Annual Fee For The First Year, Then $150
  • Offer ends 7/16/25.

How to Find the Offer

To get this offer, you need to go to the Delta website and go through the steps of booking a flight. At the final page, “Trip Summary”, you should see the offer under your itinerary. A dummy booking is sufficient, meaning that you don’t have to actually book a flight. 

Check the ‘Apply for the Delta SkyMiles Gold American Express Card’ box just under the offer. Then click the “Continue to Review & Pay” button and and you will see the application page, showing the same offer. Fill out the information, and submit your application.

Guru’s Wrap-up

If you get this welcome bonus to show up while booking a Delta flight, it is definitely worth going for, if you are eligible. This is a big bonus and the annual fee is waived the first year, which should be a great deal for those who fly Delta often.

However, it could still be worth applying through referrals from friends and family members, as they can earn a big referral bonus of up to 40,000 points, on top of the welcome offer that you get.
