Bilt Rent Day - May 2026
Bilt Rent Day is now live for today, May 1 only - and with this month's Rent Day promotion, we've got big transfer bonus to go along with double points on spending!
May’s transfer bonus is to a few Avios programs - British Airways, Aer Lingus, and Iberia based on Bilt status:
Blue: 40% bonus
Silver: 50% bonus
Gold: 60% bonus
Platinum: 75% bonus
Bilt Members can also spend $150 of Bilt Cash to upgrade to the next tier.
Gold status + $150 Bilt Cash gives you a 75% transfer bonus.
Platinum status + $150 Bilt Cash gives you a 100% transfer bonus.
However, note that this transfer bonus is capped at the first 100,000 points transferred to an Avios program.
A quick reminder that Iberia has business class flights for as low as only 40,500 Avios over to Spain:
So with a 60% transfer bonus, only 26,000 Bilt Points need to be transferred.
You can also book domestic travel, like this flight from Los Angeles to Philadelphia for 16,000 Avios through Qatar Airways.
British Airways is charging 22,000 Avios for the same flight.
But wait, Qatar wasn’t listed in this Rent Day transfer bonus?
You are correct!
However, you can actually move Avios between different Avios programs through Avios.com - so if you transfer to BA with this transfer bonus, then you can later move those Avios to Qatar.
With a 60% bonus, only 10,000 points are needed to get you 16,000 Avios to book that economy flight.
Now normally, we don’t recommend speculative transfers - BUT it may be worth considering if you have some travel coming up.
Another great perk with Bilt Rent Day is double points for today only (up to 1,000 points) for spending categories.
Bilt Blue earns 2x back on everyday spend (versus 1x).
Bilt Obsidian:
Dining/grocery becomes 6x (versus 3x)
Travel becomes 4x (versus 2x)
Everyday spend becomes 2x (versus 1x)
Bilt Palladium becomes 4x back on everyday spend (versus 2x).
So if you have any planned spending to do this month, make sure to try to do that today to take advantage of double points!
