Bilt 2.0 Credit Cards and Bilt Cash: What You Need to Know

Bilt 2.0 launched with three new credit cards and a brand-new currency called Bilt Cash, and the reaction was immediate and brutal. Even seasoned points and miles experts were confused by how the new system worked. In this episode, Chris and Katie break down the Bilt 2.0 rollout, explain how the new cards and Bilt Cash program actually function, and take a step back to look at the big picture. They cover what changed, what went wrong, what still works, and whether there are any bright spots worth paying attention to as the program evolves. If you’ve been wondering whether Bilt 2.0 is something to avoid entirely or if there’s real value hiding beneath the confusion, this episode gives you a clear, honest assessment without the hype.
