I just didn’t know if the Ultimate Reward Portal is considered a third party site which I don’t think is therefore qualifying.
I want to downgrade the CSR but want to make sure I can still use my UR points for Hyatt before I do. (Or transfer all of them, if needed)
No. They have to be booked directly on Hyatt.com. Transfer the UR to Hyatt, then redeem points if you want the qualifying night.
If its cheaper on Chase UR Portal, but you don't care about the qualifying night. It would be better to book there.
