In 2022, Bilt Rewards launched a new RENT DAY promo to reward Bilt Rewards members on the first of every month. As a senior advisor and investor in the company, I have been seriously impressed with how inventive the program has been with massive transfer bonuses, rent giveaways, and now Bilt Experiences. However, January’s Rent Day is just plain ridiculous.
To ring in the new year, Bilt Rewards is going absolutely nuts with its first Rent Day of 2024 by bringing back some of the favorite Rent Days of 2023. The transfer bonuses are mind-blowing, and I can’t resist taking advantage of them. Normally, I would advise against moving points speculatively, but with these bonuses, I’m breaking my own rules. Personally, I plan to transfer a significant amount of Bilt Rewards to both Virgin and FlyingBlue, as I travel to the UK frequently and have a ton of use for these points in the next year.
Let’s take a look at the transfer bonuses:
– 75% Member: 1000 Bilt Rewards = 1750 Transfer Partner Points
– 100% Silver: 1000 Bilt Rewards = 2000 Transfer Partner Points
– 125% Gold: 1000 Bilt Rewards = 2250 Transfer Partner Points
– 150% Platinum: 1000 Bilt Rewards = 2500 Transfer Partner Points
These transfer bonuses apply to FlyingBlue, Virgin, and IHG One Rewards. Additionally, points are worth 50% more when redeemed with Amazon.
While transferring points may not be the best use of your Bilt Rewards, many members seem to love it, and it’s back for this Rent Day. Bilt Mastercard® holders can receive $5 in their Lyft account by activating the offer in the app on January 1st.
One of the exciting features of this month’s Rent Day is the Bilt Rewards Game Show ‘RENT FREE.’ It’s a fun game to play, and Michael Rapaport is the guest host this month. Members have the chance to win their August rent paid by correctly guessing three of the most popular answers to hypothetical questions asked of 1,000 Bilt Members.
Looking back at past Rent Day promos, Bilt Rewards has consistently offered incredible benefits to its members. Some highlights include United status trials and challenges, 100% transfer bonuses to IHG, Hawaiian, and Flying Blue, Hyatt Trial Status and Challenge, and even a chance to win R/T Virgin Upper Class and Emirates Biz tix.
On top of all these amazing offers, Bilt Rewards is doubling points on all non-rent purchases for the month of January. Cardholders can earn 6x points on dining, 4x points on travel, and 2x points on all other spend, excluding rent.
In partnership with SoulCycle, Bilt Rewards members can book a SoulCycle class on Rent Day and reserve a free second bike, bringing a friend along. Members also earn 10x points for attending a Bilt Rent Day SoulCycle class. Additionally, one lucky person attending a Bilt Rent Day SoulCycle class will win a free month’s rent.
For those who pay rent, the Bilt Mastercard® is a gamechanger. It allows you to pay rent without transaction fees, either within the Bilt Alliance network or with any landlord in the United States. Bilt will even mail a check to your landlord if they don’t accept credit cards. The card earns 2x points on travel and 3x points on dining, with no annual fee.
Overall, Bilt Rewards Rent Day is an exceptional opportunity to maximize your credit card spending and take advantage of the promotions offered. Whether it’s through transfer bonuses, game shows, or partnerships with brands like SoulCycle, Bilt Rewards continues to impress with its innovative rewards program.
