Why is it masculine?
Billet is masculine. While it does derive from Old French "billette" (a diminutive of "bille," meaning a log or stick), the modern French form "billet" lost its diminutive suffix and is simply the masculine noun meaning "ticket" or "note." The gender is masculine by convention of the word as it exists in modern French, not because the diminutive suffix produced masculine nouns.
