Your Rent Check Just Got Wings: Earn 2X Total United® MileagePlus® Miles with Bilt

Dec 4, 2025

Use Your Rent Payments to Fast Track to United Premier Status With Double Rewards, and PQPs on Your Biggest Monthly Expense

Big news for United® MileagePlus® Chase Cardmembers: starting today, you can earn 2 total miles per $1 spent when you pay rent on-time through Bilt using any participating United MileagePlus card. That's right: your biggest monthly expense just became your ticket to more travel rewards and status with United. We couldn't be more excited to bring this benefit to United MileagePlus Chase Cardmembers across the Bilt ecosystem.

What This Means For You

When you pay rent through Bilt with your participating United MileagePlus Chase Card, you're earning 2 total miles per dollar—up to $50,000 worth of rent payments per calendar year. Think about it: that monthly rent payment you're making anyway just became your next annual friends’ trip or visit home for the holidays.

Why United? They've got major hubs where so many Bilt Members live: San Francisco, Denver, Chicago, Houston, Newark/New York, Los Angeles, and Washington. As the largest airline in the world connecting passengers to more than 360 destinations, those miles you're earning on rent can take you just about anywhere United flies (and that's a lot of places).

And remember: you automatically earn rewards and access exclusive benefits at home or in your neighborhood when you link any card to your Bilt account—in this case, any participating United MileagePlus Card—in addition to your usual card rewards. This is especially powerful for United MileagePlus Chase Cardmembers, who can earn double rewards on their biggest expense while building toward elite status through PQP (Premier Qualifying Points), making rent day a major opportunity toward achieving MileagePlus status.

How It Works

It’s seamless: pay rent through Bilt with a participating United MileagePlus Chase Card, and get 2 total miles per dollar. One mile per dollar posts to your MileagePlus account under "Bilt Rent Cardmember Bonus Miles," while the other mile appears on your credit card statement in the "United MileagePlus Award Miles Summary." Two deposits, double the satisfaction.

These are the participating United MileagePlus Chase consumer credit cards:

  • The United Gateway℠ Card

  • The United℠ Explorer Card

  • The United Quest℠ Card

  • The United Club℠ Card

  • The United Presidential Plus℠ Card

How to Start Earning

  • Add your eligible United MileagePlus Card to your Bilt account

  • Set it as your preferred rent payment method in your Bilt account

  • Pay rent through Bilt like you normally would

  • Watch those miles stack up

This collaboration is yet another way we're expanding the Bilt ecosystem to help you love where you live—and love where your rent payments can take you.
