Bilt – Some New Features and a Game Show!

You’ve probably heard about the Bilt Mastercard from me or others already. Bilt’s fame came from enabling cardholders to earn points for paying rent with the card. Cardholders anticipate Rent Day each month to not only pay rent but also to take advantage of Bilt’s surprise one-day special Rent Day promotion. In addition, Bilt has been adding other permanent benefits to the card.

The Rent Day promotion for September 1 has not been announced yet, but Bilt has introduced some other features which are worth mentioning now.

REDEEM BILT POINTS

This is a valuable new development. Bilt cardholders can now redeem Bilt points toward payment of their credit card statements.

LAUNCH OF THE BILT FOUNDATION

Bilt has launched The Bilt Foundation, which has the goal of finding organizations that can help people experiencing any form of hardship that makes it hard to pay rent (whether they are a Bilt member or not).

RENT FREE Game Show

Bilt has launched a new game show called Rent Free hosted by Ankur Jain, Bilt’s founder and CEO. The show will feature celebrity guests who’ll be asked to guess Bilt members’ most popular answers to a variety of questions, and every correct question grows the pool of free rent we give away.

Here’s the video of the first episode, where the celeb guest was  Claudia Oshry (@girlwithnojob), a comedian, podcaster and author:
