Bilt did not wait until the first for some of the Rent Day fun this month. Lyft credits for members and a chance to win free rent by playing the Rent Day Challenge are both live.
Each month, Bilt makes the first fun. It offers bonus opportunities, chances to win points playing a trivia game, and even a contest to win free rent (up to $2,500) for what it calls “Rent Day.” Bilt’s next Rent Day occurs on Saturday, July 1st. Bilt is a great program with lots of transfer partners and these Rent Day promos make it even sweeter. I used the Bilt Mastercard® to pay rent on my winter place in Florida this past year and love it. I’ll keep using it for restaurants and other charges on the first to earn double points until I’m back paying rent again.
Up to $25 Lyft Credit
Through July 1st, Bilt is featuring a bonus offer for Lyft. Bilt Rewards Members will get a $10 Lyft credit by activating the individual promo found in their account. Those with the Bilt Mastercard® will get this doubled to a $20 Lyft credit. Anyone who books and takes a Lyft ride on July 1st will get an additional $5 credit.
Lyft Credit Terms & Conditions:
- Bilt Rewards Members will be get a $10 Lyft credit by activating the Rent Day promo in their account on July 1st. Holders of the the Bilt Mastercard® will get a $20 Lyft credit by activating the promo as follows:

Bonus Points

Point Quest™
Point Quest™ is Bilt’s trivia game (found in the app). You answer questions and can win 50 points per question for the first five, plus 100 if you answer a sixth correctly. I’ve been doing pretty well the past few months and earning all 350 points.
Anthony’s Take: I look forward to the games and bonuses offered on Rent Day each month. Bilt makes paying bills fun and the points earned are valuable given the number of transfer partners that Bilt currently offers. Bilt started things early this year with the Lyft credits and Rent Day Challenge before July 1st. The bonus Lyft credits are not that exciting to me, but it’s free money, so I’ll definitely claim it.
