Who is this card good for?
This card is best for those who need an extra boost toward Delta Medallion status with the opportunity to earn 1 Medallion Qualification Dollar (MQD) for every $20 spent on the card in a calendar year. This can allow you to spend your way to elite status, and it can be especially effective when combined with occasional Delta flights.
Earning Rewards
You’ll earn bonus miles on a great blend of travel and everyday expenses: 3x on eligible Delta purchases and purchases made directly with hotels, 2x at restaurants and U.S. supermarkets and 1x on all other eligible purchases.
