Rakuten Rewards announced a new partnership with Bilt Rewards, the leading loyalty program for renters and homeowners, to create new ways for members of both programs to earn and redeem rewards, just in time for the holiday season.

Through this collaboration, Rakuten members can now redeem their Cash Back for Bilt Points, one of the most valuable and fastest-growing loyalty currencies available today. Bilt members, in turn, gain access to thousands of Rakuten merchants across categories all while earning rewards that can be used toward rent, travel, and more.

The partnership marks a significant step forward for both companies as they continue to innovate in the loyalty and rewards space. “Bilt and Rakuten share the belief that rewards should provide tangible ways for people to reach their goals,” said Amit Patel, CEO of Rakuten Rewards. “This collaboration brings together two of the most innovative rewards programs to expand what it means to be rewarded. Now Rakuten members can redeem their Cash Back as Bilt Points—unlocking even more flexibility and redemption options while shopping at thousands of their favorite stores. It’s a win-win for smart shoppers everywhere.”
