Lyft Rewards Overview

TL;DR: Link your Hilton Honors and Delta Skymiles Rewards Accounts to Lyft to earn more rewards. I also recap all known Lyft rewards so far.

Lyft is offering 3 Hilton Honors points per $1 spent. Delta Skymiles is also offering 1x points for every $1 spent on Lyft rides. Once you have those accounts, you can link them here and here. These stack with each other as well as other rewards!

So to recap, with every Lyft ride you can get:

• 3 Hilton Honors points per $1 spent
• 1x Delta Skymiles points for every $1 spent
• $0.5 – $5 worth of points with Freebird
• 10pts ($0.01) per $1 spent with Drop
• $2 worth of credit when you use a world elite mastercard (like Citi Double Cash)
• Your usual credit card cashback value

Not bad!

In general when you compare with Uber and you max out according to this guide, things are very close especially since ShopYourWay and SpentMoney closed down their partnerships with Uber. The major difference is Lyft has the $2 credits, and Uber has about 5% more cash back value – which one you use will depend on which ends up being cheaper and how expensive the ride is (the more expensive, the more likely you want to use Uber).

Happy Lyft’ing!
