So, here's the deal: Truist is discontinuing its Delta debit card on October 31, 2025. If you're one of the few still using it to rack up those Delta SkyMiles, it's time to start thinking about a new strategy. While debit cards aren't typically the best way to earn miles compared to credit cards (due to the lack of rewards and potential fees), this is still a heads-up for anyone who relied on it for their Delta fix.

In other news, Dan's Deals chatted with Chase Sapphire's GM, Sam Palmer, and Travel with Grant highlighted how you can turn Hilton credit into a $50 snack spree. Plus, keep an eye on Kroger and Harris Teeter for 4x fuel points on select gift cards, a great way to save on gas! There are also deals expiring or starting soon at Staples on Visa gift cards. Maximizing points and miles often involves staying on top of these limited-time offers!

Why This Matters for Your Strategy

News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.

As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
