Bilt’s June Rent Day: Up to 16X points on dining, exclusive restaurant reservations, free SoulCycle classes and more

Bilt’s June Rent Day promotion was announced today and aside from the usual offerings, there’s plenty of new stuff in time for summer travel. Most offerings revolve around food, with Bilt expanding its Neighborhood Dining program. Members also earn bonus points through the usual trivia activities and credit card spending. Here’s a summary of the June 2024 Rent Day promotion:

• Double points on credit card spending: Earn double rewards when using your Bilt Mastercard for purchases on June 1.
• Up to 10X points on dining: To celebrate the expansion of the Neighborhood Dining program, members can earn up to 10X bonus points by using a registered credit card at participating restaurants.
• Bilt Brunch series: Bilt is setting aside tables for members at select restaurants in Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles and New York.
• SoulCycle x Bilt Rent Day Rides: Members get access to free themed SoulCycle classes booked through the app.
• Rent Free Game Show: Earn bonus points playing a special trivia game

Below are the details for each promotion:

Double points on credit card spending

Date: June 1, 2024

Every Rent Day, members with a Bilt Mastercard earn double points on all purchases except rent. The Bilt card normally earns 3X points on dining, 2X points on travel and 1X on all other purchases. These rewards are doubled on the first of every month. Since the Bilt card requires members to make at least five purchases per statement in order to earn points, Rent Day is the perfect time to meet this requirement. I like to use my Bilt card on Rent Day to purchase gift cards, pay bills and make purchases that I normally would earn just 1X point on.

While I could certainly charge these expenses to a double rewards card like the Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card, I value Bilt points higher for their transfer options (mainly Alaska Airlines and World of Hyatt).

Note: If you use my Bilt Mastercard referral link to apply for the card and get approved, I’ll earn 2,500 bonus points.
