If you already own the BILT card or thinking of owning the card, I've just come up with a way for you to automatically get 1 more BILT transaction each month. Join this channel for .99 cents a month and use your BILT card to make the automatic monthly payments. I've just made your life simpler so supporting this channel just makes sense right? 😂😂. This video and the previous one kzitem.info/news/bejne/rIV6uJ-OboBzhH4si=mvOldBL-aPDs1Ypj go together. Between the 2 of them, we have 4X catch-all and 32X dining which results in impressive transfer miles. I'm using the 4X catch-all to earn status and 32X dining to pile on the value.

Ummm... I don't think your "percent" math is correct. As in... 1,000 BILT points x 125% (ie. multiply 1000 x 1.25) would be 1250 Sky Miles, not 2250. *Math..?* IJS.

It's tricky. It's a 125% transfer boost. Meaning you transfer 1000 points and they boost it 125% by adding an additional 1250. You would therefore end up with 2250 miles. Trust me, I've been transferring points to Emirates.

Nice video. Strategy was unreal at 16X, but has now pretty much been nerfed. However, 6X+3X (9X) dining on rent day is still pretty good. 3X restaurants are probably here to stay for at least another year or two. If you’ve got: 1. $2k/mo(1X) in rent (24k pts), 2. $2k/mo(4X) in fixed spend that can be paid on the 1st (48k pts) and 3. $250/mo(9X) in rent day dining (27k pts) That still gets you Gold status ($24k + $3k = $27k in spend) with 99,000 pts. This can be almost 225k pts on special transfer days. This is probably a realistic scenario that can be repeated each year. All this with a 1 card setup with arguably some of the most valuable transfer partners in the game.

You've done your homework, love it!!Agreed regarding BILT dining. 3X is likely here to stay except for the occasional rent day boost or 1-off new restaurant use-case. For good measure, BILT is my dining card of choice as I'm holding out for an elevated transfer option later this year. If BILT offers another elevated rent day transfer boost to signal that such transfers are here to stay for the foreseeable future, I might just cancel my Amex gold card.

This is still an amazing video and the stacking works, but it seems like there was a huge devaluation of 10x and 5x down to 2x in the last few months. In addition, when I load the BILT app to try and book a restaurant for tomorrow, I noticed all the restaurants I usually go to have a disclaimer below the multiplier saying that the terms are changing after 5/27/24. Do you think the in app dining being NERFED in a month?
@RSquared-travel-rewards
5 ай бұрын
I don't believe that 5/27 is significant. There has always been a timeline for how long the dining multiplier would be guaranteed given that you are able to book a reservation with Open Table for a long period out. BILT has always given windows for the dining multipliers. What I have noticed is that once a restaurant lowers its dining multiplier, I haven't seen them rise again. There is one 10X left in Boston when I last checked but I'm away in Africa for 3 months so no BILT Dining videos for a while but I will be utilizing BILT rent Day's 6X without fail. My take is that Bilt will continue to partner with restaurants for BILT Dining as it appears to be a core mission of theirs as stated by the CEO.

According to the Bilt MasterCard disclaimer, you are limited to only 10k bonus points per month. Q. How do you earn 20k if you are only limited to 10k? Another Q. Let's say you charged for your restaurant bill on the first of the month and the restaurant merchant doesn't process your transaction until the next business day, which is the actual transaction posted date, then you get screwed out of the multiplier bonus essentially? There are many caveats that can potentially ruin your perfect scenarios. If all stars align you may get the bonuses, otherwise not very likely.
@RSquared-travel-rewards
5 ай бұрын
Not sure why you're referencing 20K. The example is $500 for a meal on rent day at a 10X BILT restaurant + 6X due to rent day. That is 16X * $500 = 8K points. When the transfer comes around, which has nothing to do with the 10K pt limit, you can transfer out at 100%, 125% or 150% based on status. You may have misinterpreted the 10K bonus limit. It is NOT 10K per month, it is 10K on rent day for the double multipliers only. BILT Dining is not impacted. It is 10K bonus max on rent day as a result of the 6X, 4X and 2X multipliers. The key to BILT's rent day, is that a rent day purchase has nothing to do with when a purchase is posted. Instead, it is based on when the charge is first run (or pre-authorized) else BILT's rent day of double points on rent day would come under attack from day one. Let's put it this way, you're allowed to leave the restaurant because your card wasn't declined, which means that the pre-authorization was successful and that's what's used for rent day. I've been using BILT rent day for over a year and all purchases changed to my card have all be doubled as outlined by BILT. Hopefully this clears it all up. So no stars need to align. It just works.

You should have taken the BILT card with the $1500 limit. There is an awesome feature of the BILT card called BILT Protect which will pull the funds directly from your bank account without touching your available credit and you still get the points. I pay my rent this way always so that I can use the card for real purchases. It really is an awesome feature. Granted my rent is less than my limit. You might want to call them up and get them to reopen the application.

Do you think this card makes sense for someone who is a homeowner and who does not live in a city that has Built Dining Rewards restaurants? I am considering adding this card as a no-annual fee replacement for the CSR given the similar (or better on rent-day) multipliers and the travel protections which are important to me. I'm thinking this is a great card for someone who wants the simplicity of a one card set-up. Decent multipliers, transfer partners, no foreign-transaction fee, etc... Thoughts? If you wanted just one card in your wallet, would this be the one?

I'm glad that you said it and not me because folks would think that I'm crazy. For a non-renter-non-bilt-dining person, this card is still GREAT. Using the card as a 2X catch-all card on rent presents better value than any other 2X catch-all card out day. You already know what a rent day transfer boost would do to the 2X. If you play the game correctly, this should get anyone to Silver status and some to Gold without much effort. I'll assume that you mean CSP and not CSR. No one should own the CSP over the BILT card. It can be in addition to because BILT crushes the CSP. It is really hard to think of carrying just 1 card. 2 is easy = Citi Premier + BILT. I'd have to get back to you on carrying just 1 card 😂😂 - I feel like I'd be lacking too much with just 1. I think that I'm going to make a video for "what if you could only have 2 credit cards, what would they be". I will reference you in the video if you don't mind because you got me thinking.
