Miles and MQMs are earned based on how you use your Card.
- 1 mile for every eligible dollar you spend — there is no limit to the number of miles you can earn and no expiration
- Double miles for Delta and Northwest Airlines purchases
- MQMs are earned based on flight distance and fare class*
- Earn up to 20,000 miles — 5,000 of which are MQMs — with your first purchase**
- Earn 10,000 MQMs when you spend $25,000 in one year†
- Earn 10,000 more MQMs when you reach $50,000 in the same year†
This calculation assumes 6% spent on Delta purchases and 94% spent on everything else. It is for estimating purposes only.
* Earn MQMs on Flights: MQMs earned through flight activity are calculated based on distance traveled and fare class purchased on Delta, Delta Connection®, Delta Shuttle®, SkyTeam® partners, and Alaska Airlines. Qualification Segments are earned through flight activity on Delta, Delta Connection, Delta Shuttle, SkyTeam partners, and Alaska Airlines. Each airline calculates elite status qualification differently. SkyMiles members do not earn MQMs or Qualification Segments on Avianca, China Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, and Singapore Airlines operated flights.
** 20,000 Bonus Miles (5,000 MQMs) with First Purchase: 20,000 Delta SkyMiles (5,000 of which count as Medallion® Qualification Miles) will be awarded after your first purchase on the Platinum Delta SkyMiles Business Credit Card. Please allow 8 to 12 weeks after your first purchase for the bonus miles to appear in your Delta SkyMiles account. Upgrades from a classic Delta SkyMiles Business Credit Card to a Platinum Delta SkyMiles Business Credit Card will receive 15,000 Delta SkyMiles (5,000 of which count as Medallion® Qualification Miles). Upgrades from a Gold Delta SkyMiles Business Credit Card to a Platinum Delta SkyMiles Business Credit Card will receive 10,000 Delta SkyMiles (5,000 of which count as Medallion® Qualification Miles). This offer is valid for first-time Delta SkyMiles Business Cardmembers only. If you already have or had any other Delta SkyMiles Business Credit Card from American Express Account(s), you are eligible to receive only the incremental difference between the Welcome Bonus miles offered herein and the amount offered with such other Account(s). You may be permitted to have more than one Delta SkyMiles Business Credit Card account; however, you are eligible to receive welcome bonus miles for only one Card account. Additional Cardmembers are not eligible.
† Up to 20,000 MQMs Each Year: The close of the calendar year is December 31, without regard to the time of the year that the account is opened. This means that for the first year of Cardmembership your Eligible Spending bonus period may be less than twelve months.

I feel the power of American Express behind the personal touch. It's an interesting ability to be big and small at the same time.
