Rakuten & Bilt Team Up: Turn Your Cashback into Travel Gold!
Published on November 16, 2025, 9:04 PM
Big news for Bilt Rewards members! You can now convert your Rakuten cashback into Bilt points. Rakuten, if you don't know, is a shopping portal that gives you cashback (or now, points) for purchases you make through their links. This is a game changer because Bilt points are super valuable for travel – think free flights and hotel stays. Here’s the deal: for a limited time (6 months), you can convert at a 1:1 rate, meaning $10 in Rakuten cashback gets you a whopping 1,000 Bilt points! After that, the rate changes depending on your Bilt status. Silver, Gold, and Platinum members still get a solid 100 Bilt Points per $1, but Blue members drop to 50 Bilt Points per $1. So, if you have Bilt status, this is a no-brainer. Even if you're starting from scratch, this could be a good opportunity to rack up Bilt points, especially with the limited-time 1:1 conversion. Also, if you're new to Rakuten, consider using a referral link for a signup bonus!
