The New Program
Unlike other dining reward programs, Bilt Dining is built directly with restaurants, not through a third-party rewards network. Currently, Bilt Dining operates in five cities: New York, Dallas, Chicago, Boston, and Atlanta, with plans to expand to more cities.
You don’t need the Bilt Mastercard to earn points at participating restaurants, but if you have it, you can earn 3x points per dollar spent at restaurants plus 5x points per dollar spent at participating restaurants.
Bilt Rent Day
Additionally, on Bilt Rent Day, the first day of every month, members earn double points on travel, restaurants, and all other spending, meaning you can earn 6x points per dollar spent at restaurants, instead of the normal 3x points, plus the 5x points per dollar spent at participating restaurants through Bilt Dining.
To get started, join Bilt Rewards and add credit cards to the Bilt wallet tab in the Bilt app. You earn 100 points per credit card added to your Bilt wallet, up to a maximum of 300 points. The Bilt Mastercard earns 2x points per dollar spent on travel and 3x points per dollar spent at restaurants and has no annual fee.
Redeeming Bilt Points
Each Bilt point earned can be redeemed at 1.25 cents per point through the Bilt travel portal or transferred to its travel partners, which include Air Canada Aeroplan, Turkish Miles & Smiles, United Airlines MileagePlus, American AAdvantage, Cathay Pacific Asia Miles, British Airways Executive Club, Iberia Plus, Air France KLM Flying Blue, Virgin Atlantic Flying Club, Aer Lingus Aer Club, Hyatt, and IHG Rewards.
Restaurant Availability
Bilt Dining is currently available in five cities: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, and New York, and members can earn an unlimited number of points through the program. On Rent Day, you can earn 11x points at Bilt Dining restaurants (5x points per dollar spent through Bilt Dining plus double points at restaurants for a total of 6x points per dollar).
Conclusion
In summary, Bilt Rewards has introduced a new program called Bilt Dining that rewards members with 5x points per dollar spent at participating restaurants when using a linked credit card in the Bilt wallet. You can earn an unlimited number of points, and the Bilt Mastercard earns even more points. This is yet another enhancement to its program that keeps members engaged.
