Word to the wise: Never buy a Delta gift card if there isn't an active promotion. In the past few months, we've seen Delta gift card promotions ranging from bonus SkyMiles to an Uber voucher or even a Starbucks gift card.

Starting today, there's a new way to get rewarded for your purchase. Through May 31, 2026, you can get a year of Paramount+ when you buy a Delta gift card of $350 or more.

Here are the key terms and how to take advantage of the promotion — and maximize it to the fullest.

Buy a $350+ Delta Gift Card, Get a Year of Paramount+

Now through May 31, 2026, Delta is offering a year of Paramount+ with each Delta gift card purchase of $350 or more. No enrollment is required to take advantage of this offer.

You'll receive one Paramount+ voucher per eligible purchase, so you could theoretically give away multiple subscriptions to friends and family if you made multiple purchases.

While Delta gift cards don’t expire, the Paramount+ voucher will expire on June 8, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. ET if not redeemed by then. Your plan will automatically renew if you don't cancel it before your renewal date. Paramount+ Premium annual plans are currently $139.99 per year.

Earn 5X Bonus SkyMiles Using a Delta Credit Card via Amex Offers

If you want to fully maximize your purchase, consider using a co-branded Delta credit card to buy your Delta gift card. Your Delta card might have a targeted Amex Offer to earn 5X bonus SkyMiles per $1 spent on Delta gift cards through July 14, 2026, up to 10,000 bonus SkyMiles.

To max out this offer, you'd need to enroll and spend $2,000 on Delta gift cards. Although it's more time-consuming, you could split your $2,000 in gift card purchases into 4 purchases of $350 gift cards and 1 purchase of a $600 gift card. That way, you'd earn five Paramount+ vouchers on top of your 10,000 bonus SkyMiles. Each annual membership costs $139.99, which is almost $700 in additional value.

Keep in mind that this bonus is in addition to what you'd earn by using your card for your purchase to begin with.

Our Take

There are a couple of reasons why you might consider buying a Delta gift card now. The obvious one is the Paramount+ voucher; it’s an easy way to squeeze a little more value out of a $350+ purchase. Another is if you’re actively working to earn Delta Medallion status this year.

Even though you won’t earn bonus Medallion Qualification Dollars (MQDs) on the purchase of a Delta gift card directly, you will if you pay with a Delta credit card that earns bonus MQDs per $10 or $20 spent. It’s an easy way to generate a bit of extra spending to accelerate your Medallion earnings. Plus, if you enroll in the Amex Offer, you'll earn 5X bonus SkyMiles, up to 10,000 miles.

  • 1X miles per dollar on all other eligible purchases.
*If your purchase qualifies for a category that has a higher mileage accelerator, only the higher accelerator will apply.

But if you’re not chasing MQDs, remember that Delta processes its gift card sales directly. That means gift card purchases should be coded as airfare. So, you could earn up to 5X miles or points on the purchase, depending on which credit card you use. See our list of the best credit cards for travel purchases for ideas.

  • Deb says:

    There wasn’t anywhere to enter my skymiles number. How will I get credited for the purchase?

    • Tyler Glatt says:

      Hi Deb, there should be a box to enter your SkyMiles number on the “Checkout” page. It’s on the right-hand side of the screen opposite the card details if you’re opening the link from a laptop/desktop.

      • Deb says:

        So if I completed the purchase without seeing that, I’m out of luck?

        • Tyler Glatt says:

          Hi Deb, you might have luck reaching out to customer service to see if they can help you out, but if you made a purchase without entering your SkyMiles number, you might be out of luck. Please let us know either way!

  • Ed says:

    Delta is my last choice for miles bonuses. So hard to get good value out of them, international long haul are often 300k point range.

  • zev korf says:

    will a 200$ gift card count as an incidental purchase that qualifies for the amex platinum credit?

  • Andrea Fernandez says:

    I think this offer it´s good,,,but the world situation makes me feel unsure about the purchase

  • Mnsotn says:

    Thanks. Just before I am about to book a Delta flight. One question, if using the Platinum, will this also trigger the remainder of a person’s $200 yearly airfare credit (with Delta the chosen airline)?

  • LAWRENCE says:

    It’s an ok promotion but there are probably better ways to maximize value and/or reward/point earnings.

    • Lancelot says:

      This deal is a no-brainer if you know you’re going to be paying for an upcoming flight. But if you’re buying speculatively, I would not recommend anyone do that.

  • Ignacio says:

    Just in time for Holiday shopping

  • Tod Mell says:

    I like the bonus. However, I have been hesitant investing in the Delta Skymiles program because I feel that the mile have devaluated a lot. Still a good deal if you are buying a gift anyway or flying soon.

  • Paul says:

    Nice promo, I am impressed with Delta throughout the past 20 months

  • Kevin says:

    A good deal becomes very good because they don’t use points.com. I wish more airlines would follow suit.

  • Charles says:

    What is the maximum purchase amount?

    • Ryan Smith says:

      There’s a maximum of $10k in one order when I just tried to add a ton to my cart. There’s nothing in the terms saying that you can’t buy again after 1 transaction, but I don’t know anyone who’s ever tried, so no data to report on whether you can buy again after that $10k.

  • AJ says:

    Thank you. Perfect timing. I had a couple of credit cards that I was looking for options to meet spending requirement for bonus. This is a wonderful opportunity.

  • Lucy says:

    If I use the purchased gift card to pay for a flight, will I also get Delta points for this?
