Update 5/21/25: That didn’t last long. Starting 7/21 all cards (apart from the Bilt Mastercard) will earn 1 point per $2 spent. Previously it was 1 point per $1 spent for Visa/Mastercard & Discover.
Original post: BILT has updated the earning structure when paying rent using a credit card. Terms now state:
Rent payments made via a Visa®, Mastercard®, or Discover® credit card will earn 1 Point per $1 spent on rent paid through the Bilt App or website. Rent payments made via an American Express® credit card will earn 1 Point per $2 spent on rent paid through the Bilt App or website.
There is still a 3% fee, but this does make it profitable to use a non-BILT card to pay rent now in some instances (e.g Smartly card if you’re grandfathered). Previously you’d earn a flat 250 points.
