Why Should You Sell Your Delta Skymiles with The Points King?
—
Yes — you can sell your Delta SkyMiles for cash through a reputable broker like The Points King. While Delta’s own program doesn’t offer an official cash‑out feature, third‑party brokers legally facilitate mileage purchases so you can turn unused miles into real money.

We verify your account and mileage totals.
You receive a cash offer based on current demand.
Once accepted, we complete the transaction and send payment.
This process is secure and straightforward.
To understand market context (not broker pricing): Delta SkyMiles usually have an average redemption value of around 1.1–1.3 cents per mile when used for flights.
That translates to approximate travel value of:
50,000 SkyMiles ≈ $600
100,000 SkyMiles ≈ $1,200
200,000 SkyMiles ≈ $2,240
These are award redemption values, not cash you’ll receive.
In the secondary market, brokers often buy miles at a discount to redemption value because they can place them into bookings or resell at a profit. A typical range is:
Estimated broker buying range:
➡️ $0.008 to $0.015 per mile (varies with demand and quantity)
→ Estimated offer range: $400 to $750
This assumes mid‑market demand and typical volume pricing. Smaller packages tend to be on the lower side.
→ Estimated offer range: $600 to $1,100
At this size, buyers often bid more competitively than with very small balances.
→ Estimated offer range: $800 to $1,500
This is one of the most commonly submitted quantities and usually earns solid pricing.
→ Estimated offer range: $1,200 to $2,200
Larger packages often bring higher per‑mile bids because they’re easier for buyers to place into high‑value travel bookings.
→ Estimated offer range: $1,600 to $3,000+
Very high balances draw the strongest offers and fastest buyer interest.
If you can redeem miles for a flight with a redemption value above the broker payout range — say a round‑trip business class ticket — that may be better value than selling. But if you don’t have travel plans or can’t find good award space, selling gives you cash instead of miles that might otherwise sit unused.
Once your transfer is verified and the sale is accepted, most sellers receive payment within 24–72 hours after completion.
Delta’s program does not allow selling or transferring miles between members, so using a broker inherently involves risk. However, reputable brokers like The Points King handle the entire transfer process securely and quickly to minimize account issues.
SkyMiles never expire as long as there’s account activity, but if you choose to sell, we transfer them immediately after payment is arranged — so they’re removed from your account as part of the transaction.
