Bilt Partners with Venmo for Rent & Mortgage Payments
Venmo and Bilt have announced a new partnership which will expand how people use Venmo for everyday payments. The partnership will bring rent payments, mortgage repayments, and neighborhood commerce into the Venmo experience.
From early 2026, Bilt Members will have a new way to not only pay their rent and mortgage, but also to shop at Bilt neighborhood merchants, adding Venmo to Bilt’s existing payment options of ACH, debit, and any linked credit card. Members will be able to make housing payments directly in the Bilt app, or within Venmo using their Venmo balance or linked payment methods, and benefit from the same during everyday activities like dining, shopping, and fitness classes.
Bilt Members can complete monthly payments in just a few taps, split costs with roommates, and earn Bilt Points that can be redeemed for travel, fitness, home decor, and more.
“Our partnership with Bilt marks a pivotal first step in our journey to bring everyday commerce directly into the Venmo experience,” said Diego Scotti, General Manager of Consumer at PayPal. “Millions of people already use Venmo to split rent with roommates and pay their landlords, now we’re making that experience even more seamless and rewarding. We’re thrilled to partner with a company that shares our relentless focus on innovation and the customer. Together, we’re redefining what’s possible when social payments meet everyday life.”
“Venmo is one of the most relevant and trusted payment experiences in America, so bringing it into the Bilt ecosystem is a game-changer for our members,” said Ankur Jain, Founder & CEO of Bilt. “Venmo isn’t just a payment method—it’s how millions of people connect and engage with each other every day. By combining Venmo’s reach, simplicity, and social connectivity with Bilt’s rewarding rent and neighborhood commerce network, we’re giving millions of renters more flexibility with how they pay and more value every single month. This is exactly the kind of innovation that moves our industry forward.”
The two companies say that the partnership will commence in early 2026. That’s in line with Bilt’s new credit card issuer which is set to offer new products starting in February.
