					<description><![CDATA[Bilt members can now earn rewards in Bilt currency instead of cash or Membership Rewards points (for 6 months it's 1:1 conversion; afterwards it's half)]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Update 5/16/26: Just a reminder to change your account from earning Bilt points if you&#8217;ll no longer earn 1:1. The transfer rates area s follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bilt Members with Blue status will receive 50 Bilt Points for every $1 in Rakuten Cash Back.</li>
<li>Silver, Gold, and Platinum Bilt Members&#8217; rate will remain 100 Bilt Points for every $1 in Rakuten Cash Back.</li>
</ul>
<p>5/15/26 payment was the last that was grandfathered in at 1:1.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Update 11/16/25:</strong> Bilt has <a target="_blank" href="https://www.reddit.com/r/biltrewards/comments/1oxw46y/bilt_to_rakuten_at_11_is_really_for_less_than_2/np1hoyn/">clarified</a> that the 6-month promo period where everyone will get 1:1 conversion will include the May 15, 2026 payout from Rakuten. The 5/15/26 payout is for portal rewards earned during Q1 2026, so basically if you convert to earning in Bilt you&#8217;ll end up with your Q4 2025 payment and Q1 2026 payment. Any rewards earned on 4/1/26 through 6/30/26 will be paid out on 8/15/26, and I assume that will no longer be eligible for the initial promo 1:1 rate.</p>
<p><strong>Original Post 11/6/25:</strong></p>
<p>Bilt cardholders and all Bilt Rewards members can now earn rewards in Bilt currency instead of earning as cash or<a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/ebates-partners-with-american-express-to-allow-converting-ebates-cashback-into-membership-rewards-points-11/"> as AmEx Membership Rewards points</a>. (As<a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/leak-rakuten-points-to-be-convertible-to-bilt/"> we expected</a>.)</p>
<p>Existing Rakuten customers can convert their accounts to earn in Bilt points instead of cashback/MR.<span style="font-size: 8pt;"> (Click the &#8216;Create and Link&#8217; option and input your existing Rakuten email address; the system will then prompt you to convert the account to a Rakuten-Bilt account.)</span></p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.biltrewards.com/p/rakuten">Bilt Link</a> |<a target="_blank" href="https://www.rakuten.com/help/article/bilt-faq"> Rakuten Link</a></p>
<h2>Bilt-Rakuten Conversion Rates</h2>
<p>Earning rates:</p>
<ul>
<li>Temporarily, for 6 months, everyone can earn 1:1 conversion rate. For each $10 Rakuten cashback earned you&#8217;ll get 1,000 Bilt points.</li>
<li>Longer term:
<ul>
<li>Bilt Members with Blue status will receive 50 Bilt Points for every $1 in Rakuten Cash Back.</li>
<li>Silver, Gold, and Platinum Bilt Members&#8217; rate will remain 100 Bilt Points for every $1 in Rakuten Cash Back.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p>Many people value Bilt points more than Membership Rewards points and more than cashback. That makes the temporary promo quite interesting.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Those who have higher Bilt status will consider keeping Bilt as their Rakuten points currency long-term. Those with basic Blue status will likely prefer Membership Rewards or cash.&nbsp;</p>
<p>For most people, this is likely just a temporarily interesting deal.<span style="font-size: 8pt;"> (Note: You can change to Bilt now and then change back to Membership Rewards after the 5/15/26 payout.)</span> But remember, <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/bilt-card-2-0-will-include-earning-points-on-all-mortgage-payments-card-transition-details-5-24-more/">Bilt has a $95 and $495 credit cards coming out</a>; it&#8217;s possible those cards will get higher status or that status qualifications will change when the new Bilt card details come out.</p>
<p>Aside from future earnings, all of your pending rewards will get paid out as Bilt points instead of Cashback. For example, today is November 6th: if you have $1,000 in Rakuten cashback set to be paid out on November 15th, you can convert your account now to Bilt and it&#8217;ll get paid out on November 15th as 100,000 Bilt points.</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Signup Offer</span></strong></p>
<p>Note: if you are new to Rakuten, might prefer signing up with <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/rakuten-50-5000-referral-bonus-highest-ever/">the current $50 referral bonus offer (valid through 12/31/25)</a> instead of the 2,500 points offer from Bilt. (If &#8211; before payout &#8211; you convert your account to earning Bilt points, the $50 would get paid out as 5,000 Bilt points.) I&#8217;ll also appreciate if you use the referral option in the linked post. 🙂&nbsp;</p>

<p>This was just 65% and I don&#8217;t think it was worth doing. Strange to launch another one so soon for less.&nbsp;&nbsp;Chase UR are just too valuable and Marriott not valuable enough. Could only see it making sense if you need a very very small amount of Marriott points for a specific redemption and you have no other real options.&nbsp;&nbsp;You can see a full list of previous Chase transfer bonuses by clicking <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/a-complete-list-of-previous-current-chase-ultimate-rewards-points-transfer-bonuses/">here</a>.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/atlantic-union-bank-250-bonus.png"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-177579" src="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/atlantic-union-bank-250-bonus.png" alt="" width="721" height="528" srcset="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/atlantic-union-bank-250-bonus.png 721w, https://www.doctorofcredit.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/atlantic-union-bank-250-bonus-300x220.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 721px) 100vw, 721px" /></a></p>
<h2>The Fine Print</h2>
<ul>
<li>Cash Bonus Terms and Conditions: (#1) open a new Free Checking, Loyalty Checking, Preferred Checking, or ThankU Checking account by November 1st, 2021, AND (#2) set up a recurring qualified direct deposit totaling $2,000 or more each month for the three consecutive full statement cycles immediately following the account opening date AND (#3) conduct at least 10 point-of-sale debit card transactions (ATM transactions excluded) each month for the three consecutive full statement cycles (months) immediately following the account opening date. If you satisfy all of the above requirements, you will receive a $250 cash bonus. Satisfy (#1) AND either (#2) or (#3), get a $100 cash bonus.</li>
<li>Offer is not valid if you have had an Atlantic Union Bank checking account, or have received any Atlantic Union Bank cash bonus offer within the last 12 months. Limit one cash bonus offer per new customer and account. Bonus may not be combined with any other offers. Atlantic Union Bank reserves the right to alter the terms of the promotion or end it at any time. All accounts are subject to approval.</li>
<li>Cash Bonus Payment: The cash bonus will be deposited in your account within 30 calendar days after all terms of the offer are met. Your checking account must be open and in good standing to receive cash bonus award. Cash bonus value will be reported to IRS as taxable income.</li>
<li>All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them</li>
</ul>
<h2>Avoiding Fees</h2>
<h3>Monthly Fees</h3>
<p>They offer a free checking account with no monthly fees.</p>
<h3>Early Account Termination Fee</h3>
<p>According to the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.bankatunion.com/home/fiFiles/static/documents/Personal_Fee_Schedule.pdf">fee schedule</a>&nbsp;you’ll be charged an early account termination fee of $25 if the account is closed within 180 days of opening.</p>
<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/va-md-nc-atlantic-union-bank-100-600-checking-bonus/">They have offered as high as $600 in the past</a>, but that required a huge deposit and was more difficult to keep the account fee free. I think this new bonus is better and worth doing if eligible. We will add it to the <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/best-bank-account-bonuses/">best checking bonus page</a>.</p>

</ul>
<h2>Avoiding Fees</h2>
<h3>Monthly Fees</h3>
<p>Foundation checking has no monthly fee with direct deposit or average balance of $100; otherwise, pay a $5 monthly fee.</p>
<p><strong>Beginning May 1, 2024,&nbsp;</strong>Foundation Checking will be updated with the following:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>No monthly maintenance fee</strong>&nbsp;(previously $5)</li>
<li><strong>No minimum balance or direct deposit requirement</strong></li>
</ul>
<h3>Early Account Termination Fee</h3>
<p>“Accounts closed within 90 days of opening will be charged a service fee of $25.00</p>
<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p>Think this is worth doing as it&#8217;s a large bonus, we just don&#8217;t have any datapoints on what works as a direct deposit. We will add this to our list of the <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/best-bank-account-bonuses/">best bank account bonuses</a>.</p>

<h2><span id="Our_Verdict">Our Verdict</span></h2>
<p>We saw<a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/targeted-chase-business-total-checking-750-bonus-no-direct-deposit-required/"> the $750 offer before with a lower $20,000 deposit requirement</a>. The high interest environment we&#8217;re in makes the deal less enticing since the money won&#8217;t be earning any interest while in the Chase account.</p>
<p>The funds<a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/chase-business-checking-500-online-bonus-no-direct-deposit-required/#comment-2197063"> only need to sit in the Chase business checking account for 31 days (day 31 &#8211; day 60)</a>. In the end, you&#8217;re likely to end up losing $100-$250 in interest (assuming <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/high-interest-savings-to-get/">a 4-5% interest rate in high yield savings account</a>). Some people might prefer doing the lower $300 tier with just $2,000 required.</p>
<p>When I tried doing this some months ago, there was something about my business type not being eligible for online opening and I decided against going in branch. The offer now is worse with the higher deposit requirement so I&#8217;m going to give this one a miss. Still could be a decent deal for someone interested.</p>
<p>Unfortunately you’re not eligible for this bonus if you’ve received a Chase business checking bonus within the last two years, so it won&#8217;t work for everyone. There used to be a clause that you had to keep the account for 6 months before closing, but I think (?) Chase has removed that now from all of their bonuses.</p>

<h2>The Offer</h2>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>The Fine Print</h2>
<ul>
<li>Offer not available to existing checking or Express Banking customers or to those with a Fifth Third Checking or Express Banking account that has been closed within the last 13 months.</li>
<li>Bank reserves the right to limit each customer to one new account-related gift incentive per calendar year.</li>
<li>Essential Checking account must be opened between 1/1/2021 and 3/31/2021.</li>
<li>Bonus will be deposited into your new checking account within 10 business days of completing requirements.</li>
<li>Basic Checking, Express Banking and Business Checking accounts are excluded from this offer.</li>
<li>Bonus may be taxable as interest income and reported on IRS Form 1099-INT.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Avoiding Fees</h2>
<p>Some states are able to open the Free Checking Account with Extra time (now called Momentum checking), that&#8217;s the best option if available. Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan all have the free option. Other states have another free checking offer.</p>
<h3>Early Account Termination Fee</h3>
<p>This account does not have an early account termination fee</p>
<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p>Fifth Third used to to offer a $300 bonus with no direct deposit or a <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/fl-ga-il-in-ky-mi-nc-oh-tn-wv-fifth-third-500-checking-bonus-direct-deposits-not-required/">$500 bonus with a direct deposit but neither of those offers have been seen since 2019</a>. The standard bonus has been $300, so this is an increased offer by $100. We will be adding this to our <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/best-bank-account-bonuses/">best bank bonus page</a>.</p>

<li>Get two ChatGPT business seats (that&#8217;s what they call users) for the price of one with promo code infoseekaius. Works for 48 months.&nbsp;</li>

<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p>This doesn&#8217;t work on annual plans, only on monthly. This is useful as these plans have a minimum of two users.

					<description><![CDATA[Some Chase Amazon cardholders are being offered 10% back on their next Amazon offer.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>The Offer</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">No direct link to offer, sent out via e-mail. Subject line is &#8216;10% back: Your Prime Visa birthday gift at Amazon&#8217;. Others report seeing this offer in cart. Make sure to clear cart first otherwise you won&#8217;t see it.</p>
<ul>
<li>Some Chase Amazon cardholders are being offered 10% back on their next Amazon offer.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h2>The Fine Print</h2>
<ul>
<li>This special offer applies automatically when paying with Prime Visa at Amazon.com before May 31. There&#8217;s no cap, you just need an eligible Prime membership</li>
</ul>
<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p>This is being advertised as a birthday month reward, so I suspect you&#8217;re not eligible unless your birthday is in May. Standard exclusions apply (e.g no gift cards).&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p>Webull has so many frequent bonuses it&#8217;s hard to keep track of the best deals. <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/massive-webull-referrer-bonus-up-to-5000-no-referral-sharing/">There is a referral match bonus for up to $5,000 currently but it requires a long 5 year hold time</a> so <a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/best-brokerage-bonuses-earn-up-to-3500/">other brokerage bonuses</a> are probably a better option.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I think this is a good option, but might be worth waiting to see if I&#8217;ve missed anything like a better offer (please correct me in the comments).&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Our Verdict</h2>
<p>Ibotta is also offering $2 back on these (limit 5), so should be a $4 money maker if everything works perfectly. You can read more about Aisle&nbsp;<a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/aisle-grocery-rebate-platform-5-referral-bonus-100-back-offers-more/">here</a>. Lots of people have issues with accounts being shut down, so keep that in mind. Free is free.&nbsp;</p>

<li>Chase Ultimate Rewards is offering a 30% transfer bonus (1:1.3) to Southwest Rapid Rewards. Valid until June 5, 2026.</li>
</ul>
<h2><span id="The_Fine_Print">The Fine Print</span></h2>
<ul>
<li>Minimum transfer is 1,000 points.</li>
<li>Bonus points post within seven days after transfer (it’s typically instant).</li>
<li>Bonus does not count toward Companion Pass or elite qualification.</li>
<li>Taxes and fees apply on award flights; subject to availability.</li>
</ul>
<h2><span id="Our_Verdict">Our Verdict</span></h2>
<p><a href="https://www.doctorofcredit.com/chase-ultimate-rewards-25-transfer-bonus-to-southwest/">Better than the last transfer bonus of 25%</a>. Points used to be worth 1.3-1.4 each, now seem closer to 1.1¢. This can be useful but a lot of people will prefer the value from other transfer partners instead.&nbsp;</p>
