Ever imagined soaring through the skies or embarking on a new adventure every time you settle your rent? With Bilt Rewards, that dream is now a reality. Dive deep with us and discover how your regular rent payments can be your passport to the world's most breathtaking destinations.


Earn While You Rent


Every rent payment made using the Bilt Mastercard at U.S. properties translates to reward points, both for rent and other purchases.


Simple Onboarding


Get started by setting up a free account via the Bilt app. Ensure a steady stream of points with a minimum of 250 earned per rent payment.


Maximize Point Collection with the Bilt Mastercard


Apart from rent, enjoy 3X points on dining, 2X on travel, and 1X on other transactions. You can also now earn 5X points on Lyft rides by linking your Lyft account. If SoulCycle is your thing, you can earn 10X points on your classes. There's no monthly limit for non-rent point accumulation. Just maintain a minimum of five transactions each statement period. If you don't maintain a minimum of five transactions, no miles will be awarded for your rent payment that month. There's no minimum spend amount for those five purchases, putting your coffee or breakfast on the card five times per month shall suffice.


Bypass Rent Fees


Forget about the conventional 3% processing fee for rent payments. Even if your landlord prefers not to use credit cards, Bilt steps in to manage payments, ensuring your reward points are uninterrupted.


Membership Benefits


Rise through the ranks from Blue to Platinum tiers as you continue using the card. Higher tiers bring more privileges, including the chance to earn interest on point balances and bonuses during lease renewals.


Diverse Redemption Options


Your earned points are versatile. They can offset next month's rent, secure a flight, be used for fitness classes, procure art, or even be channeled towards a future home's down payment.


They have a number of airline partnerships you can transfer your earned miles to including American Airlines, United Airlines, Virgin Atlantic, Air France, KLM, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Hawaiian Airlines, Turkish Airlines, AER Club, Iberia, Air Canada, and Emirates. Hotel partners currently include IHG Hotels & Resorts and World of Hyatt.


Bilt World Elite Mastercard Perks


Bilt cardholders receive premium benefits including cell phone insurance, discounts with select renowned brands, and 24/7 access to the World Elite Concierge service. For added financial security, the BiltProtect feature ensures you don't overshoot your credit limit by routing your rent payment straight to your debit card while still earning miles.


Check Apartment Eligibility


To verify if your apartment qualifies for the Bilt Rewards Alliance, simply input your address in the Bilt app. Numerous esteemed real estate partners, such as American Landmark and AvalonBay Communities, are on board.


Conclusion


The Bilt Mastercard isn’t just another card in your wallet; it’s a tool to transform your rent payments into rewarding experiences. Start viewing your rent as an opportunity, not a liability.
