Introducing Bilt Cash: A New Way to Unlock Value in Addition to Points

Oct 23, 2025

Bilt Cash to launch January 1, 2026, replacing Milestone Rewards.

Throughout the last year, we’ve built a network of more than 5MM homes and over 45,000 merchants in our neighborhood ecosystem—making it even easier to access rewards and benefits where you live.

Starting January 1, 2026, driven by the rapid growth of the Bilt ecosystem, we’re excited to announce a new addition to our status program: Bilt Cash. Bilt Cash is designed to give you even the richest rewards when choosing to live in our network of homes or spending in our network of merchants.

Bilt Cash will be earned in addition to Bilt Points and will be the richest way our most engaged members receive value through living in our network of homes or spending in our network of merchants. While Bilt Points are the most valuable points currency in the industry, their value was built through their ability to be transferred outside our ecosystem to our industry leading travel partner list. 

What This Means For You

This new rewards currency works exclusively within the Bilt ecosystem without taking away any of the flexibility of your Bilt Points. Bilt Cash can be redeemed for fixed value at local merchants in our network (such as cash off when you use Mobile Checkout, hotels in Bilt’s Travel Portal, fitness classes, and Home Delivery orders). This means $10 in Bilt Cash is worth $10 with merchants in our network.

It can also be used for one-time access to elite status benefits (such as upgraded status for Rent Day transfer bonuses, early access to experiences, and Home Away from Home access for Blue and Silver Members).

Similar to milestone rewards, you’ll earn $50 in Bilt Cash every time you earn 25,000 Bilt Points. Each time you hit that 25,000 Bilt Point milestone, your Bilt Cash will be immediately usable.

Bilt Cash gives you dollar-for-dollar value in our ecosystem and access to experiences and benefits that points can't buy:

  • Imagine dining at one of your favorite local Bilt Neighborhood Restaurants. When the time comes to pay your check with Mobile Checkout, you’ll be able to reduce the check total with Bilt Cash before making your final payment.

  • Imagine you’re a Silver Member planning a trip to London for the summer. If we were to announce a transfer bonus to a partner airline, you’ll be able to unlock one-time access to a Gold Member transfer bonus to make your points go even further.

Why are we launching Bilt Cash?

Bilt Points became the most valuable and flexible point currency in the industry because they can be transferred to our extensive list of external partners. Bilt Cash was created to give you real value you can feel within the Bilt ecosystem.

Don’t worry, any Milestone Rewards claimed before the end of the year will stay active until they expire, or you’ve earned the maximum amount of points for that Milestone Reward. As always, unused Milestone Rewards will expire at the end of the year as we transition to Bilt Cash.

We’re thrilled to launch Bilt Cash: it represents the next evolution of your membership, replacing Milestone Rewards with a more flexible reward currency that adapts to how you want to experience our ecosystem.

As we near the end of the year, you’ll hear more specifics from us related to Bilt Cash, including more ways to earn and redeem it. Full terms and conditions will be available at biltrewards.com/terms/bilt-cash.
