Bilt to Last? Grading Bilt Rewards Six Months On
Learn what six months of confusing changes to Bilt's rewards program have actually meant for cardholders' points.
Hosts Sally French and Meghan Coyle discuss six months of living with Bilt's revamped rewards program to help you decide whether the housing-focused card still earns its keep.

Then, joined by fellow Nerd and credit cards writer Craig Joseph, Sally and Meghan discuss their real-world experience with Bilt Rewards 2.0, with tips and tricks on choosing between Bilt's two rewards options for housing payments, deciding whether putting your rent on a rewards card is worth the hassle, and stacking Bilt points with airline and hotel transfer partners.
