Quick Thoughts
Now that’s more like it! There’s been a series of underwhelming Bilt Rent Day promotions in recent months, but they’re back with a bang for July 1.
Managing to get Alaska Airlines on board as a transfer partner was impressive seeing as they’re not a partner of any of the other major transferable currencies. These latest Rent Day opportunities have the potential to provide a lot of value, but there’s a couple of important things to be aware of.
First, as with all of their transfer bonuses over the past year or so, the bonus percentage varies depending on your status level with Bilt. For those without status, you get a not-ungenerous 25% bonus. For those with Silver, Gold or Platinum status, you’ll get a 50%, 75% or 100% bonus respectively. The key thing to note with the transfer bonus is that the bonus is only applied on the first 50,000 Bilt points you transfer; above that it’ll be the standard 1:1 ratio.
For those with Bilt Gold or Platinum status, being able to get Alaska Airlines status through the end of the year is a fantastic opportunity too. That requires transferring 10,000 Bilt points to Alaska and, most importantly to note, those 10,000 points won’t get bonused at the 75% or 100% rate. Instead, they transfer on a 1:1 basis and the transfer has to be initiated from the dedicated elite status pages in the app. Alternatively, if you scroll down the home page of the app you should see it listed there:
Note that the status match opportunity is valid from now through July 1, while the transfer bonus will only be available on July 1. We’ll republish this post on the first of the month as a reminder.
