Ever wanted to pay rent with a credit card WIHOUT fees?! The Bilt World Elite Mastercard definitely took be by surprise; it turned out to be one of the best travel credit cards with no annual fee, offering a bunch of excellent benefits and valuable rewards. Here’s a breakdown of the Bilt Credit Card benefits and my full Bilt Credit Card review.
Currently there’s no Bilt Credit Card signup bonus available to the public. However, targeted offers may exist.
01:56 Earn Bilt Points| Rewards Structure & Annual Fee
- Up to 5X Lyft (2X as a Bilt Member, 3X when you pay with your Bilt Card)
- 2X Travel (Booked directly with the airlines, hotels, etc. or via the Bilt Travel Portal)
- 1X Rent Payments (Up to 100K points per calendar year)
NOTE: You must make at least 5 total purchases with your Bilt Credit Card per billing cycle in order to earn points. An exception is with the Lyft partnership. You don’t have to use your card 5 times each statement period to earn 3X points with Lyft, but the transaction(s) DO count towards the 5 transactions minimum requirement for other earnings).
