Bilt Rent Day: Double Points, Gift Card Bonuses & More!
Bilt Rewards is running its July Rent Day promotion, offering various perks to its members. The highlight is a bonus on gift card redemptions, ranging from 25% to 100% depending on your Bilt Rewards elite status (Blue, Silver, Gold, Platinum). This means you can get 1.4 cents per point at the highest tier, though this value is still up for debate given potential discounts on gift card purchases. Beyond gift cards, the promotion includes double points on all Bilt Mastercard purchases excluding rent payments, boosting rewards on dining (6x points), travel (4x points), and other spending (2x points), up to 1,000 bonus points. Additionally, Bilt members get a free “Pigs in a Blanket” treat at the Bilt Neighborhood Cafe in NYC. Recurring Rent Day features, such as a contest to win free rent and free SoulCycle rides, are also part of the promotion. Bilt Rewards is free to join, but to earn significant points, the Bilt Mastercard is recommended. This card allows rent payments without fees and offers 3x points on dining, 2x on travel, and 1x on other purchases, with points transferable to major airline and hotel partners. The card also includes valuable benefits such as cell phone insurance and an unadvertised 50,000-point bonus for new applicants. Overall, while the gift card redemption bonus may not be the most lucrative aspect, the double points and other perks make this promotion appealing to Bilt Mastercard holders.
