About Bilt Bilt Rewards

Bilt Rewards is the only loyalty program in the US that lets you earn transferable points on rent payments - something every renter pays regardless of whether they travel. The Bilt Mastercard has no annual fee, earns 1Γ— on rent (up to $50,000/yr), 3Γ— on dining, 2Γ— on travel, and 1Γ— everywhere else. With 20 airline partners and 4 hotel partners - all transferring at 1:1 and all instant - Bilt has one of the most competitive transfer partner networks of any program at any price point.

Every transfer from Bilt is instant: no waiting 24–48 hours, no uncertainty. This makes Bilt exceptional for last-minute award bookings and time-sensitive transfers. The program also runs a unique feature called Rent Day on the 1st of every month, during which Bilt earns double points on all categories and features a rotating monthly partner airline with bonus transfer deals - often 100% bonuses - that are not available on any other program.

Bilt's hotel coverage is also noteworthy: it transfers to both World of Hyatt and IHG One Rewards, giving renters access to the best hotel loyalty programs without paying a Chase Sapphire annual fee. For travelers who rent and want a single card to anchor their points strategy, Bilt is arguably the best starting point available - and at $0 annual fee, there is no reason not to have it.

Best Bilt transfer partners

Not all transfer partners deliver the same value. These three consistently offer the best cents-per-point returns for Bilt Rewards.

1

World of Hyatt

World of Hyatt

Bilt is one of only two US bank programs (alongside Chase) that transfers to World of Hyatt - the best hotel loyalty program for per-point value. Category 7 properties like the Park Hyatt Tokyo go for 30,000 points/night, a room costing $700–$1,000 in cash. Transfers are instant.

Sweet spot

30,000 Bilt points for one night at a Park Hyatt property worth $700–$1,000 in cash - transferring instantly from your Bilt account.

2

United MileagePlus

MileagePlus

United is a Bilt partner and one of the most practical programs for domestic US and Star Alliance award travel. Instant transfers make it easy to book last-minute domestic awards or partner flights on ANA and Lufthansa.

Sweet spot

35,000 United miles for a round-trip domestic US economy award, transferred instantly from Bilt Rewards.

3

Air Canada Aeroplan

Aeroplan

Aeroplan is the best Star Alliance program for transatlantic business class awards. Business to Europe starts at 85,000 miles. Bilt transfers instantly to Aeroplan - a combination of speed and value that is hard to beat for last-minute bookings.

Sweet spot

85,000 Aeroplan miles round-trip business class to Europe on Lufthansa, Swiss, or other Star Alliance carriers.

Why earn Bilt Rewards?

The only program that earns on rent

The average American pays $1,500–$2,000/month in rent. At 1Γ— on every dollar, a $1,800/month rent payment generates 21,600 points per year - worth $432 in flights - at zero annual fee. No other program, at any price, offers this.

All 24 transfers are instant

Every single Bilt transfer partner - airlines and hotels - posts instantly. No 24–48 hour waits. This is the same speed as Chase Ultimate Rewards, but with a broader partner list and no annual fee requirement.

Hyatt + IHG at no annual fee

Bilt transfers to both World of Hyatt and IHG One Rewards. Access to Hyatt alone typically requires a $95+ Chase Sapphire card. Bilt gives you both hotel programs with zero annual fee - an exceptional deal for hotel redemptions.

Rent Day: 2Γ— on everything on the 1st

On the 1st of every month, Bilt earns double points on all categories. A $1,800 rent payment on Rent Day earns 3,600 points instead of 1,800. Monthly partner bonuses - sometimes 100% transfer bonuses - are announced each Rent Day and are exclusive to Bilt.

How to transfer Bilt Rewards to partners

Follow these steps every time. The golden rule: confirm award availability before moving a single point - transfers are one-way and irreversible.

  1. 1

    Find the award first

    Search for award availability on the airline or hotel program's website before transferring. Note the exact flight, date, cabin, and miles required. Award space disappears - transfers cannot be reversed.

  2. 2

    Check for an active transfer bonus

    Check the Current Bonuses section above. A +25% bonus means 40,000 points becomes 50,000 miles - free miles that require zero extra spending.

  3. 3

    Execute the transfer from Bilt

    Log in to your Bilt account β†’ navigate to Bilt Rewards β†’ select "Transfer to travel partners" β†’ choose the airline or hotel program β†’ enter your loyalty membership number and the number of points to transfer β†’ confirm. Keep your loyalty account number ready before you start.

  4. 4

    Book the award immediately

    As soon as miles post to your loyalty account, book the award. Partner award availability can vanish within hours. Have your passport details and co-pay card ready before starting the booking.

How much are Bilt Rewards worth?

Point value varies dramatically by redemption type. Transferring to the right partner at the right time can yield 3–8Γ— more per point than redeeming for cash back or statement credits.

Bilt vs other programs

Bilt is unique - it's the only $0 annual fee card with access to World of Hyatt, instant transfers, and 20+ airline partners. Here's how it stacks up against the two most common alternatives.

FeatureBiltChase Ultimate RewardsAmex Membership Rewards

Bottom line

Bilt wins on rent earning (completely unique), access to American Airlines, and Rent Day monthly bonuses. Chase wins on points value (2.05Β’ vs 2.0Β’) and the depth of the Ink/Freedom ecosystem. Amex wins on partner breadth and Delta access. For any renter, Bilt should be the first travel card in their wallet - at $0 it earns points that would otherwise be lost on rent checks, and can be stacked with Chase or Amex for category maximization.

Frequently asked questions about Bilt Bilt Rewards

How does Bilt Rewards work for rent?
You pay rent using the Bilt Mastercard through the Bilt app or by using the card at any property that accepts Mastercard. Bilt earns 1 point per dollar on rent, up to $50,000 per year, with no foreign transaction fees and no processing fee charged to the landlord. There is one requirement: you must use the Bilt Mastercard at least 5 times per statement period to earn points on rent. Fail to hit 5 transactions and the rent purchase earns 0 points that month.
What are the best Bilt transfer partners?
The three most valuable Bilt transfer partners are: World of Hyatt (30,000 points/night for Category 7 luxury hotels - the best hotel value available), United MileagePlus (domestic US awards and Star Alliance bookings), and Air Canada Aeroplan (best transatlantic business class rates on Star Alliance). All three transfer instantly from Bilt with no fees.
Does Bilt have a hotel transfer partner?
Yes - four of them: World of Hyatt (1:1, instant), IHG One Rewards (2:1, instant), Marriott Bonvoy (1:1, 2–7 days), and Hilton Honors (1:2, instant). The Hyatt and IHG partnerships are particularly valuable; Hyatt consistently offers the best per-point hotel value in the US market.
What is Bilt Rent Day?
Rent Day is the 1st of every month on Bilt Rewards. On that day, the Bilt Mastercard earns double points on all categories - including rent, dining, and travel. Bilt also announces a monthly featured airline partner, which often comes with a transfer bonus (sometimes 100% extra) exclusive to Bilt cardholders for a limited time. Timing large transfers to Rent Day can significantly increase your miles.
How long do Bilt transfers take?
All 24 Bilt Rewards transfer partners - both airlines and hotels - process instantly. This includes World of Hyatt, United, Air Canada, British Airways, and all other partners. Bilt and Chase are the only two US bank programs where every partner transfers instantly.
Can I transfer Bilt points to American Airlines?
Yes - Bilt Rewards transfers to American Airlines AAdvantage at a 1:1 ratio, instantly. This is a notable advantage over Chase and Amex, neither of which directly transfers to American. Combined with the Avios partnerships (British Airways, Iberia), Bilt actually offers some of the best coverage for oneworld redemptions.
