Info - your Bilt account is not the same as the Wells Fargo account; Bilt uses your email; Wells Fargo uses a userid

My landlord is currently paid by ACH SENT from my bank account, i.e., my bank sends an ACH payment to his bank account
Bilt sends a check by mail or gives you the ACH info so the landlord can PULL the money from your "rent" account
Bilt gives you an ACH routing number and a "bank" account number you can use to give your landlord to pay rent

I have not found a way to pay someone by ACH from Bilt "bank" account
Anyone with more experience please let me know.

Mods, I hope this is correct forum - feel free to move

Second issue
When I logged in to the Bilt App, it found 20 of my credit card accounts
- must have read my credit report when I applied, as all my accounts were there-
and invited me to LINK THOSE accounts to get rewards for paying rent!

I thought Bilt worked only with Wells Fargo!
can I double dip??
Can I use my Capital One visa account to let Bilt pull cash for rent and get both Bilt Rewards and Capital One miles ???
Anyone with expertise / experience linking Bilt Rent to non WellsFargo, please post or pm me.
Thanks
No, linking it will only lead to spend on your other cards counting towards Bilt "status" and if you eat at "Bilt Dining" venues and Pay with a linked card, you get those bonus points. You don't get to double dip.
