While Delta's consumer American Express cards include benefits and bonus earnings geared toward the individual consumer, the business card portfolio is aimed at small-business owners. With every swipe, you're earning miles that can be put to use for future flights — just by charging your business expenses to your card.
The entry-level card for small-business owners is the Delta SkyMiles® Gold Business American Express Card, which comes with the following benefits:
The bonus miles on shipping and select advertising purchases are worth noting here, as they can really amplify a small business' earning potential. Whether you're paying to deliver your products to customers or using your card for marketing expenses in your local media market, the Delta Gold Business Amex has you covered.
For a limited time, new cardmembers can earn 75,000 bonus miles after spending $6,000 in purchases on their new card in the first six months of card membership, plus an additional 5,000 bonus miles after their first Delta purchase. Terms apply. Offer ends Oct. 25, 2023.
To elevate your earnings and travel experience, consider bumping up to the Delta SkyMiles® Platinum Business American Express Card. More frequent Delta flyers can get a ton of value from this card, including the following perks:
Small-business owners who frequently make large purchases would be a great fit for the Delta SkyMiles Platinum Business Card, as earning 1.5 miles per dollar spent is a solid return. And if you (or your employees) are regularly on the road, earning 3 miles per dollar spent on their hotel stays can really boost your SkyMiles account.
For a limited time, new cardmembers can earn 90,000 bonus miles after spending $8,000 in purchases on their new card in the first six months of card membership, plus an additional 10,000 bonus miles after their first Delta purchase. Terms apply. Offer ends Oct. 25, 2023.
For loyal Delta flyers with a lot of business expenses, the Delta SkyMiles® Reserve Business American Express Card is the one to get. The card features an array of perks, including:
Aside from the travel-related benefits, the standout here is the bonus-earning rate you receive once you hit $150,000 in spending. Big-spending businesses can rack up tons of miles by leveraging the Delta SkyMiles Reserve Business Card.
For a limited time, new cardmembers can earn 100,000 bonus miles after spending $12,000 in purchases on their new card in the first six months of card membership, plus an additional 10,000 bonus miles after their first Delta purchase. Terms apply. Offer ends Oct. 25, 2023.
The benefits you'll get by holding a Delta SkyMiles Business card don't end at earning SkyMiles. You'll also get benefits on travel days.
When flying Delta-operated flights, you can expect Main Cabin 1 priority boarding, a free checked bag for you and up to eight companions on the same reservation, and a 20% statement credit on eligible inflight purchases. These apply to any of the cards above.
And when it's time to use your miles, you'll automatically save 15% when using miles to book award travel on Delta flights through delta.com or the Fly Delta app (not applicable to partner-operated flights or taxes and fees).

Beyond the rewards and travel-related perks, there are a number of added benefits for small-business owners on these cards.
When you add employee cards to your account, you'll earn miles on every purchase they make for your small business. You can even set individual spending limits on each card to ensure they're responsibly using company funds.
Even better? Employee cards on both the Delta Gold Business Amex and the Delta Platinum Business Amex come with no annual fee.
When you (or your employees) swipe your card, you don't have to worry about managing a separate SkyMiles login. That's because all SkyMiles earned from your business card and employee cards go into the same account.
You can then use those miles for your own travel or put them to use for your employees.
If you're in the market for a business credit card, look at one of Delta's American Express cards for small-business owners. No matter which card you choose, you'll earn bonus miles on a variety of purchases and enjoy an array of travel perks — like a free checked bag and priority boarding on Delta flights.
