Consumers who love to travel frequently, and who want a credit card that will help them to do so at discount prices will want to look at the Delta SkyMiles Gold Credit Card. Issued by American Express, this card will award customers with bonus sky miles the first time they make a purchase using the card. Additional bonus points can be earned when additional cards are ordered for the same account. Card holders can earn double miles for each dollar that they spend on daily purchases at grocery stores, gas stations, drug stores, the U.S. Post Office, home improvement and hardware stores. Card holders can also earn double miles when they pay their cell phone bill or make a purchase with Delta, and Delta SkyMiles never expire.
There is a low introductory interest rate, but when that period expires the fixed rate is very high. There is also an annual fee, but this is waived for the first year, and if the card holder already has another American Express card, this fee is reduced.
This car has a great assortment of travel and shopping benefits, along with the Buyer's Assurance Plan and the Purchase Protection Plan and access to TicketMaster events.
Other benefits include savings on car rentals, discounts on cruises and other vacations, and travel accident insurance.
If you want a card that will allow you to earn one SkyMile for practically every dollar you spend using it, then this card is a good choice.
