Delta Is Offering Up to 4x SkyMiles on Gift Cards — Purchase by December 3

Delta’s annual bonus-miles promotion on gift card purchases is back, and this year’s offer is a simple one: earn up to 4x SkyMiles when you buy Delta gift cards through December 3, 2025. The exact earning rate depends on your Medallion status tier — and how much you’re willing to spend.

Let’s check out the details of this offer.

Delta’s Gift Card Deal: Score Up to 4x Miles

Through December 3, 2025, Delta Air Lines is shifting its annual gift card promo toward bonus miles — and the offer is straightforward. General SkyMiles members can earn up to 3x miles on Delta gift card purchases of $400 or more, no enrollment required.

However, if you hold Delta Medallion Elite Status (Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Diamond), you’ll receive a 4x rate per $1 spent on gift cards with this promotion. Since the gift cards never expire, this can be an easy way to boost your balance if you’re planning to prepay future Delta travel.

This offer is available here:

Only U.S. residents over the age of 18 qualify for this offer; people residing outside the country are not eligible.

How Delta Gift Cards Work

Delta gift cards are non-refundable once purchased, but they don’t expire. You can use them to buy flights without worrying about losing your balance over time.

That means you can give yourself a card (by selecting the “For Me” option) and keep it in your Delta SkyMiles account to purchase flights in the future.

Is It Worth It?

If you are planning to purchase Delta gift cards this year, you should definitely take advantage of some extra miles along the way. For example, if you hold Delta elite status and plan to buy a $400 gift card (the minimum required to earn the 4x per $1 rate), you’ll earn 1,600 SkyMiles. Since we value Delta SkyMiles at 1.2 cents per mile, that’s equivalent to $19.20 in value.

If you’re interested in taking advantage of this promotion, make sure you use a card that will earn additional bonus points. Delta gift cards are not processed by the airline and won’t earn bonus points on cards with a “travel” category, so you’ll want to use a card that will reward you for everyday spending.

Final Thoughts

Delta’s gift card promo won’t make or break your SkyMiles strategy, but it’s a nice little boost if you’re already planning to spend on future Delta flights. Earning 3x or 4x miles on a purchase you were going to make anyway is an easy win — especially since the gift cards never expire.

If you’ve got travel on the books or want to front-load some flight costs, this promo is a simple way to walk away with a few extra miles in your pocket.
