A post on Reddit suggests that you can find a 50K offer, but with a $100 credit, by doing a dummy booking on Delta.com.
The offer should appear before you have to pay for the flight.

Getting the statement credit:
MrMoonlight successfully purchased a Delta ecert (essentially a gift card) and received the statement credit. See this post..
Jacobsta811 also received $50 credit for $50 e-cert on both gold business and gold personal cards.
muji received $100 credit for $50 eCert on Delta Platinum card
sdsearch received $100 credit for $50 eCert on business Platinum card (see this post).
vah4883 received $100 credit for $5.6 tax on Platinum card
So there's no thread covering this card as a whole, which means no links in the dedicated CC offers thread, so I thought I would make one so UA Fan has something to link.
Delta cards are hard because the generic public offer at Amex is pretty bad (10k miles), but there are several ways to get a better offer:

Delta cards are hard because the generic public offer at Amex is pretty bad (10k miles), but there are several ways to get a better offer:
- Delta Amex Card. Input your SkyPesos number and last name. Do this in incognito mode to get the best results. I won't get any offer if I don't do it incognito. I get 35k for $750 in 3m.
- Delta.com Stock Offers.

Delta AmEx: What is the cheapest thing to buy from Delta to get a statement credit?
Does anyone here know of some low-dollar purchase I can make from Delta online or over the phone so I can get the $100 Delta AmEx Plat statement credit? 
Reason I ask:
Just got approved for the Delta Plat AmEx – It has a $100 statement credit if you make a Delta purchase (tickets, in-flight purchases, etc.) within the first 3 months.
AmEx generated a page with the card number, cid, and expiry upon approval so I have the info needed to make a charge online or over the phone, but am traveling abroad before the physical card will arrive (tried to expedite already, CSRs said no) and will not be traveling again between the time I get back and before the 3 month statement credit period is expired.
So would like some way of making a low dollar Delta purchase to get the $100 statement credit

Are there ever any good incentives for the Business Delta Reserve?
I've been wanting this card for a while since I fly 7-8 times a year with Delta and would have no problem hitting the $60,000 spend for the larger bonus, but I have yet to see any special offers for this card over the last 3 months.
Am I wasting my time waiting? Thank you.

No churn for old Delta Amex
I closed my last Delta Amex 5 years ago, and decided to try again to possibly get the bonus miles. Approved online. Card came with no offer. I called and they verified no offer because I already received the bonus miles 5+ years ago. When they say "Once Per Lifetime" they really mean it !
