This marks a significant expansion for the Bilt Rewards Alliance, which was established in collaboration with leading residential real estate companies and currently spans over four million homes nationwide.

In addition to rewards on monthly payments, residents can also earn rewards and access exclusive benefits in their neighborhood at local Bilt Neighborhood Rewards partners including restaurants, fitness studios, rideshare and more. Bilt’s rewards ecosystem allows residents to redeem points earned towards travel with top airlines and hotels, their next condo and co-op payment, fitness classes and more.

Additionally, Bilt Points can be used towards fitness classes at the country's top studios including SoulCycle, Rumble, Y7, and more, as well as for limited-edition and exclusive collections of art and home decor through the Bilt Collection.
