[Leak] Rakuten Factors To Be Convertible To Bilt

Purchasing portal Rakuten presently enables you to convert factors into cashback or American Categorical factors (this was added in 2019 when Rakuten was called Ebates). However in accordance with this page you may switch factors to Bilt. Curiously that web page lists each Bilt & American Categorical so appears like Bilt will likely be along with American Categorical reasonably than it changing American Categorical. 

Sadly it’s not attainable to arrange this new switch.  The phrases do state the next:

Notice that you may’t change immediately between Bilt and American Categorical Membership Rewards factors. If you wish to change from Bilt to Membership Rewards factors or vice versa, select PayPal or Huge Fats Test first, then choose Bilt or Membership Rewards factors.

However choosing massive fats verify after which altering doesn’t work. We additionally don’t have any info on switch charges. I’d be stunned if it wasn’t $1:100 factors just like the American Categorical possibility however no ensures. 

There are a lot of explanation why individuals may desire Bilt to American Categorical together with Bilt transfer bonuses and differing switch companions (e.g Hyatt & Alaska each 1:1).
