1. Bilt has apparently leaked a transfer integration with JAL MileageBank, visible only after logging in, and then only sometimes. This will likely be really live around May 1 and it may have a transfer bonus then too. I don’t want to tell you how to feel about this integration, but I will say I’m quite excited personally.

    Why talk about it now if it’s not fully online yet? So you’ve got time to earn Bilt points for a possible transfer bonus in a week and a half. (thanks to nikaidoushinku)
  2. There’s a new link that enables what I’m going to call a targeted American Express sandwich. It utilizes three of my favorite five stack techniques:

    1. Business Gold with 200,000 Membership Rewards after $15,000 spend in three months (NLL)
    2. Business Platinum upgrade with 120,000 Membership Rewards after $15,000 spend in three months (this link is a hacked link, possibly risky)
    3. Employee card offers for 15,000 Membership Rewards after $4,000 spend on up to five employee cards

    Spend for (3) will work for both of the bonuses in (1) and (2) which gives lets you earn three bonuses with a single swipe. There are variations on this sequence to attempt to go further with employee cards, but I’m trying to keep this post short and I guess mysterious so we’ll cut it off here.
  3. Loyalty Lobby reports that Hilton is in the process of removing late check-out as an elite benefit, and standardizing the charge for late check-out across its brands. #bonvoyed
  4. American Express has a targeted offer for the Blue Business Plus card with 75,000 Membership Rewards after $6,000 spend in three months via head-on application and referrals. If you don’t see it, try incognito, other browsers, VPNs, mobile versus desktop, or by taping hot dogs to your fingers and typing with those.

Going overboard with hot dog fingers.
