Bilt Rewards 100% IHG transfer bonus
« on: November 30, 2022, 04:32:28 PM »
Bilt is offering a 100% bonus when transferring their points to IHG. Part of their "Rent Day" promotion for tomorrow, 12/1. [You'll also get 100 points just for linking your accounts].

Bad deal.

Just curious, what makes it a bad deal? 100% bonus sounds pretty good (educate me on this one please, thanks)

Thanks

all he means is that 2 IHG points are worth less than 1 point of some of their other partners. Like Hyatt for example. The value of your redemption will have to be greater than 0.63 just to beat the Expedia portal, which is pretty high for IHG points. Also, IHG frequently sells points for.5 cents apiece so this akin to valuing Bilt points at 1 cent apiece which is very low.

Obviously can make sense with a very specific redemption in mind but definitely not speculatively or even for a planned redemption if its long out (you can probably buy points at.5 cents before your redemption)
