Bilt Rewards Rent Day: June 2025
Paying your rent is always painful, so Bilt Rewards had the bright idea to make the first of the month a bit more fun and rewarding. So, a few years back, they launched a “RENT DAY” promo to reward Bilt Rewards members on the first of every month ( I am a senior advisor and investor in the company ).
This current rent day for June is super intriguing, not just because you can get 4.5 cents per point in value at Accor, but because you can also take advantage of Accor’s relationship to their partners and transfer Bilt to Accor to multiple Airline partners at a big bonus.
You DO NOT need the credit card to participate – all Bilt members can participate in the promos and bonuses ( Join Free! ).
I’ve been seriously impressed with how inventive the program has been with massive transfer bonuses, rent giveaways, and now Bilt Experiences. Last year we saw great transfer bonuses ( 75% to 150% )to Virgin, Flying Blue, IHG One Rewards, Aeroplan, LifeMiles, British Airways, Hilton and Alaska. Incredible.
This year we’ve had a Accor status match, LifeMiles bonus, Hilton, British Airways, Southwest, and for June we are back to Accor with an unprecedented 1:2 transfer ratio.
Just an FYI
- Using Bilt Rewards:
- Mortgage downpayment = 1.5 cents
- Bilt Travel Portal = 1.25 cents
- Student Loans = 1 cent
- Amazon = 7/10 cent
- Lyft = 7/10 cent
- Rent = 5.5/10 cent
- Transfer Partners = sky is the limit
Let’s take a look!
Table of Contents
For June, Rent Day offers up to a 200% transfer bonus to Accor
The transfer bonus is June 1st only and tiered by Bilt Status as you can see below. Usually the transfer bonus to Accor is 3:2.
- Platinum + Gold: 200% transfer bonus representing a 1:2 transfer ratio (approximately 4 Euro cents per Bilt Point)
- Silver + Blue: 50% transfer bonus representing a 1:1 transfer ratio (approximately 2 Euro cents per Bilt Point)
- Access to properties worldwide from brands like Fairmont, Sofitel, Raffles, and Mercure
- Available only from June 1 at 12:00 AM ET – June 2 at 11:59 PM PT
What are Accor Live Limitless points worth? 2 Euro cents
Live Limitless points are redeemable for a flat 2 Euro cents a piece… so if you have 100k points, you have 2000 Euros to spend at Accor properties. Currently that’s about 2.27 cents so they are quite valuable points and the reason why Bilt points normally transfer at a 3:2 ratio. if you’re Gold or Platinum, you’re scoring a whopping 4.5+ cents per Bilt Points redeemable at Accor hotels – which have an incredible list of aspirational and luxury properties
For instance, if you wanted to stay at The Savoy in London… here’s a night around 750 Euros. Super expensive, right? However, it’s just 37,500 ALL points, or 17,750 Bilt Points with this transfer bonus. Suddenly, one of the most iconic hotels in the world is within reach.
Accor can also be transferred to FlyingBlue, Iberia, and Virgin Australia ( 1:1 ) as well ( so this is a 100% bonus to those programs – and BA, AerLingus, Finnair, and Qatar since those are partners of Iberia ) and a 1:1 for Korean Air
Gary Leff pointed out that you can transfer Accor to FlyingBlue 1:1, but I did some digging and you can also transfer to Iberia and Virgin Australia.
Korean Air is an interesting option since no other transfer programs offer transfers ( not even Marriott any more ) This is particularly interesting since you can fly 1st class to Asia for just 80k miles and if you’re Gold or Platinum it’s a 1:2 bonus.
80k Bilt = 160k ALL = 80k Korean. Wowza.

Tell me more about the Bilt Mastercard®?
You can earn on points rent without the transaction fee by using the Bilt Mastercard® as long as you make 5 non-rent transaction in a statement period ( up to 100k points per year ).
You can pay rent via two different ways
- The first, using their app to pay rent within their Bilt Alliance network. They have partnerships with over 2 million properties across the country. If your building is a part of it, it’s super easy and streamlined.
But the 2nd way is a gamechanger.
- You can use their no annual fee Bilt Mastercard® to pay your rent and earn points. The card even earns 2x on travel and 3x on dining with no annual fee. I’m not talking just within the alliance, but literally any landlord, anywhere in the United States.
My landlord doesn’t accept credit card.
If they don’t accept credit card…
- Bilt will mail your landlord a check.
- They even set it up so that you can use the Bilt Mastercard® to pay via ACH, Venmo, or PayPal
If you pay rent…it’s a complete no brainer.
Overall
Bilt Rewards Rent Day is an exceptional time to spend on your credit card if you have one, but also take advantage of all the promotions they offer.
