Bilt recently introduced Bilt Cash, a new currency in the program that can be redeemed at dollar-for-dollar value for hotel credits, dining credits and more. Bilt Cash can begin to be earned and redeemed in February 2026, and does not replace Bilt Points, which can also be earned by cardholders and stacked with Bilt Cash. In addition, Bilt offers Rent Day rewards on the first of every month which usually involve special promotions.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<b>How to redeem: <\/b>Bilt has a travel portal and everyday rewards portal for cardholders to redeem their rewards, making it easy to redeem, transfer, and use Bilt Cash and Points.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<b>Redemption options and value of rewards: <\/b>Cardholders can redeem their points and Bilt Cash with any of the 16 airline partners or 6 hotel partners available. They can also use their points for everyday expenses like Lyft rides, gift cards and Amazon.com purchases. According to Bankrate\u2019s latest valuations, Bilt Rewards stand to be the highest-valued, with each Bilt Point averaging 2.1 cents when transferred to a high-value partner.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li x-id=\"['panel-credit-cards-to-consider', 'heading-credit-cards-to-consider']\" x-data=\"{ expanded: 0 }\" class=\"Accordion-item\">\n        <button class=\"Accordion-titleContainer py-4 px-3 sm:px-6 group sm:py-6\" type=\"button\" :id=\"$id('heading-credit-cards-to-consider')\" :aria-controls=\"$id('panel-credit-cards-to-consider')\" :aria-expanded=\"expanded ? true : false\" x-on:click=\"expanded = !expanded\" :data-outcome=\"expanded ?

If you spend a lot on gas, groceries or business expenses, get a card that rewards you for these types of purchases.<\/li>\n<li>\n<strong>Activate program offers and rotating categories (if applicable)<\/strong>. Some offers or categories need to be activated before you can earn rewards. This typically applies to cash back cards that offer rotating categories which change each quarter.<\/li>\n<li>\n<strong>Take advantage of any welcome offers<\/strong>. You can earn additional rewards as a new cardholder by earning a welcome bonus, which usually involves meeting a specific spending threshold within a specific time period \u2014 typically three to six months.<\/li>\n<li>\n<strong>Redeem rewards with transfer partners, when possible<\/strong>. You\u2019ll often get the most value for your points or miles when you transfer them to eligible airline partners.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 data-position=\"3\" data-beam-element-viewed=\"\" data-id=\"br-h2-3-onpage-placement\" data-type=\"h2\" data-location=\"Editorial\" data-name=\"h2_all\" data-text=\"The bottom line\" data-outcome=\"\">The bottom line<\/h2>\n<p>Credit cards can be a fantastic tool for earning rewards on purchases you\u2019re likely to make anyway.
