＃ 1, I looked at the BILT card site, and my impression is that
you can pay the RENT, but probably not the HOA Fee.

However, if the HOA fee can be paid by credit card,
maybe you can pay it.

I still think you should ask the HOA. Credit
Since it has a credit card function, can you pay by credit card ？
Why don't you ask them that ？.

Some places can pay and some can't.

Thanks for the comment.

Hawaiiana was fine ！ ！ My condo manager told me that Built still charges an additional 3 percent
fee if you pay by credit card.

But if Surepay is available, I will get a Built credit card too.
Thank you very much.

I was thinking that monthly payment by bank debit is a waste of time and money, so I'm glad if HOAFEE can do
too.

I have been in contact with wealthy people in my work and they told me that they use their time and money effectively so when they come to Hawaii they come on frequent flyer miles and stay at hotels with their points, so I sought them out.

Thank you all for the useful information.
I've been thinking that the lack of benefits for paying rent is a waste of money, so
I'm starting to consider earning points here and transferring them to some service that I can use.

By the way, according to a post on reddit,
there is no minimum amount of 5 transactions required other than rent payments, which is fine for small purchases and Split payments.

Also, the first day of every month seems to be a bonus day with points added.
There are also some special bonuses for each month.
For example, last year on Feb 1st, 1 point from Bilt can be transferred to 2 points from Hawaiin Airlines.
Well, I don't think such a special thing happens so often, but it would be nice if that chance comes （ but it would be double the frustration if you miss it ）.

If you are renting in a condo that is not Bilt compliant in Bilt, but you are making a credit payment, it doesn't matter if it is Bilt.
If you choose to pay rent on Bilt, the actual payment is just a general check sent to the address ・ you requested, so I think it is possible and you will earn points.

However, I think it would be a violation of the terms and conditions, since the terms and conditions state that Bilt will award points for the rents.

Thanks for your comments and additional information.


Mr. A

Thanks for the update information.
I registered online immediately, and it looks like I will have my credit card in hand within 10 days
I see that I can also register for monthly payments before they arrive.
I have time to make next month's HOA payment, so I will wait for the card to arrive before I register for input.

Hello everyone ！

Good news.

BILT credit card arrived in less than a week （ Heavy as Amex Black card ； ）

HOAFEE has also been processed for automatic debit ！

It will be automatically debited from April.

Even though it is a credit card, it has a routing number and account number just like a bank

I am so happy that I can have automatic debit for HOAFEE as well as for rent.

I am looking forward to seeing how much frequent flyer miles I can accumulate by using this card as my main card ♪.

I joined BILT with a regular Rent payment, but I will record it for future reference.

Payment is via a platform called Appfolio.
The payment is made via ACH because it is not BILT Alliance.
When I entered my account information in Appfolio, I entered my First Name, Last Name as Account Holder and Checking as Account Type as Personal Account.
By the way, when I asked this question in BILT chat, I got a reply in seconds. I was surprised at the speed and accuracy of the reply.
Since I activated BiltProtect, I think it is treated as a Debit payment and will be deducted directly from my bank account.

And I just received a notice from both Appfolio and BILT that the payment has been processed. I was nervous because it was my first payment with BILT, but it looks like it went through.
Appfolio has recently started taking the ACH fee ($ 2.49€), which was not covered by the BILT fee waiver, but was charged here.

Minimum use of BILT （ 5 times ） but I will digest 4 times, excluding Rent payments, in small amounts for me （ because I have other main cards ）.
For example, Amazon gift card charge can be done from $1 per transaction （ It seems to start from $5 if you schedule it ） .
If I can't make very small purchases, I'll charge them to Amazon while I digest the frequency.

There seems to have been an information leak at Wells Fargo, the card issuer, around last year, but it seems to be under control now.
Just to be safe, I have set up my Wells Fargo online account so that I will be contacted when I go online or $ spend more than 10.

I will figure out how to use the points now.
Will I transfer them to airline frequent flyer miles, and if so, which company, or use them as BILT points for travel? etc. etc. etc.
Not very efficient, but they can also be used for Amazon purchases （ Not very efficient since the redemption rate is 0.7%, i.e. 1000 points are worth $7 ）.

So I will use it patiently.

Topic.
I have completed all the procedures and debit (credit card and HOA ）), so I will give you the updated information.

I did not want to open a new bank account, so I was able to debit the BILT payment from my bank account in Hawaii.
I also made various payments with BILT and received triple points （ $ for eating and drinking ） 300 points for 100 .
After a few years, I was hoping that the mileage would accumulate a little faster as I accumulated them.

Also, referrals seem to give quite a few points to both parties.
If anyone wants to be referred
please contact me directly by clicking the letter mark ♪.

Hi ！ Thanks for the Feedback too.

I don't have automatic debit for card payments either.

Immediately after registration, my Hawaii bank was not reflected, but a few weeks later my Hawaii bank was reflected, so

I chose my Hawaii bank and debited my BILT credit card payment manually.

If the 1st of every month is the day you get more than double points, it would be a good day to buy something on the 1st ！

Thanks for sharing.

My HOA company automatically deducts money from my BILT because they don't charge me a fee by doing an automatic deduction.

It's mutually beneficial for both renters and homeowners to make referrals because the person making the referral is happy to do so.

And the referral code doesn't have your name, just a number and an English code, so you can refer without knowing each other's real names.
