Delta Reserve Business AMEX fees
Annual Fee
The Delta SkyMiles Reserve Business AMEX Card has an annual fee of $650.
The annual first class companion certificate should make up for the majority the fee, if not all of it. The rest of the fee can easily be made up using the hundreds of dollars of credits the card offers each year.
Authorized User Fee
Adding additional Delta SkyMiles Reserve Business Cards will cost you $175 per card. If you have employees that travel Delta often and would like to have lounge access, I recommend adding them.
If you have employees that don't travel or use lounges, but you still want to earn SkyMiles on their purchases, you can add additional Delta SkyMiles Platinum Business Cards to your account at no cost.
Foreign Transaction Fee
The Delta SkyMiles Reserve Business AMEX Card has a 0% foreign transaction fee. This means you can use the card for international travel and shopping without worrying about being penalized.
