Bilt Cash Value Calculator

$300 of Bilt Cash isn't worth $300 of actual value. It depends on how you'll really redeem it. This tool models every 2026 Bilt Cash redemption, applies your card tier + status tier, and gives you the realistic annual value. Unused Bilt Cash above $100 expires December 31 each year.

Free for everyone. Sign in (also free) to save your valuation. We reuse it when calculating whether your Bilt card's annual fee is justified and in your year-end portfolio review.

Which option did you pick on your Bilt card?

Bilt Card 2.0 makes you choose between two mutually exclusive earning modes when you activate the card. Pick the one you have selected so the math here matches reality.

Annual Bilt Cash from spend

$0/yr

Monthly earning × 12. This is the pool that answers “what is a $1 of Bilt Cash actually worth to me?” Every dollar goes one of three places: a credit below, housing conversion, or (above $100 on Dec 31) forfeited.

Everything you put on the Bilt card except rent/mortgage. Last month's statement minus housing is a fine estimate.

Used only to cap the Bilt Cash → Points conversion. Bilt caps the unlock at 1 point per $1 of that month's rent/mortgage. (You pay your housing payment normally on top of this; this field doesn't charge anything.)

Auto-filled to maximize housing points (lower of your monthly Bilt Cash and the cap). Edit to override. Max at $0/mo housing: $0/mo (= 0pts/mo). Anything above the cap can't be converted.

Redemption Ladders: How will you actually use it?

Methodology:All redemption caps, launch dates, and tier requirements verified against Bilt's official Bilt Cash Program Terms of Use. The housing-payment conversion is modeled at $30 Bilt Cash per 1,000 points, and the resulting points are valued at PointBagel's Bilt cpp (Conservative / Balanced / Aspirational; defaults to your account's redemption style). Transfer-bonus-upgrade pricing varies by partner and Rent Day promo. Verify in the Bilt app before redeeming.

Key Bilt Cash rules (per official T&C): (1) Any Bilt Cash you don't redeem expires Dec 31 of the year earned; up to $100 rolls over, and rolled-over Bilt Cash is spent first in the next year (FIFO). (2) Redemptions are final: no returns, reversals, or refunds once redeemed. (3) Bilt Cash cannot be cashed out, transferred between accounts, or applied as a statement credit on your Bilt Card (except the Priority Pass guest-pass post-visit credit). (4) If your Bilt Account is closed (by you or by Bilt), any unredeemed Bilt Cash is forfeited immediately. (5) Bilt may modify or discontinue the program at any time.

Two card rewards options: Bilt credit cards let you choose Flexible Bilt Cash Option (4% back in Bilt Cash on everyday non-housing spend, plus base Bilt Points; required for Point Accelerator eligibility) or Housing-Only Option (boosts rent/mortgage earning up to 1.25x via spending tiers, no everyday Bilt Cash). The calculator assumes the Flexible option. Switching options mid-cycle pauses any active Point Accelerator at your next billing cycle.
