Bilt Rent Day Benefits

Unlock even more benefits and special promotions when you use your Bilt card on the first of every month.

1. Earn Double Points on Most Purchases

On the first day of every month, Bilt cardholders can earn twice as many points on all purchases excluding rent, up to a limit of 10,000 points:

• 6x Bilt points on dining (regularly 3x points)
• 4x Bilt points on flights, hotels and car rentals (regularly 2x points)
• 2x points on every purchase except for rent (regularly 1x points)

The promotional rate begins at 12 a.m. Eastern time, and ends at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time on the first of each month. You need to use your Bilt Mastercard five or more times each statement period in order to earn rewards. 

2. Double-Dip Your Rewards with Bilt Dining

Bilt Dining is a recent addition to the rewards portfolio that offers members an opportunity to stack points, especially on Rent Day. Diners can earn 5x Bilt points per dollar spent with participating restaurants in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas and New York City. 

Unlike most other Bilt earning opportunities, you can earn Bilt Dining rewards with any eligible Visa, American Express or Mastercard in your Bilt Wallet within the Bilt app.

Of course, you’ll earn the most Bilt points if you use your Bilt card, especially on Rent Day: 11x points per dollar spent at partner restaurants on the first of each month. 

3. Play Point Quest Trivia

Bilt keeps it fun with a monthly trivia game called Point Quest™ that offers free Bilt points for correct responses. Question topics range from museum knowledge to pop culture, science, math and travel.

Contestants who correctly guess every question get a bonus round at the end for an opportunity to earn additional points.

4. Book a SoulCycle Class, Bring a Friend for Free

SoulCycle

SoulCycle enthusiasts can bring a friend to class for free on Rent Day by booking select bikes in participating cities. Both Bilt Rewards members and their participating friends will also be eligible to win a month of free rent, simply by taking a Rent Day ride.
