The Points Tool You've Always Wanted

Bilt’s June 2026 Rent Day promotion includes a transfer bonus to TAP Air Portugal Miles&Go. Platinum members receive a 100% bonus, Gold 75%, Silver 50%, and Blue 25%, with the option to boost the bonus by an additional 25% by redeeming $150 in Bilt Cash. Transfers are capped at 100,000 points for earning the bonus, and the offer is valid only on June 1, 2026.

This is still just a rumor, but Doctor of Credit is reporting that Citi may discontinue applications for the Custom Cash card, possibly as soon as the end of this week. The Custom Cash is one of Citi’s most popular cards and a key part of many Citi trifecta setups, thanks to its automatic 5x category earnings each billing cycle. Many users pair it with the Citi Double Cash and a Strata card to maximize earnings and unlock transfer partner access. Applications for the card are still currently live, so if this is a card you’ve been considering, now may be the time to apply. Citi has not announced what would happen to existing cardholders if the card is discontinued.

Homes & Villas by Marriott is offering 3x points on stays of five nights or more in Latin America and the Caribbean. Book by June 26, 2026 for stays between June 1 and December 31, 2026. Eligible stays must be paid in cash, as award stays do not qualify for the promotion. There is also a targeted Amex Offer providing $250 back on Homes & Villas stays of $1,000 or more, which can stack with this promo. We wouldn’t go out of our way for either offer, but if you were already planning a longer stay in either region, this could provide decent value.

British Airways is increasing the cash portion of its award ticket pricing beginning May 27, 2026. While the airline is not officially calling these increases higher surcharges, the added costs “will only affect the cash element of your booking.” Flights booked before May 27 will avoid the new pricing. British Airways already charges some of the highest taxes and surcharges on award flights, making this latest increase especially disappointing, with many routes seeing cash costs rise between 10-30%. If you fly British Airways even once or twice per year, this could make the British Airways credit card more appealing, as it offers up to $600 annually in statement credits toward taxes and fees on eligible Avios award flights.
