Also be sure to read up on this. I believe it is more of a combining points than a transfer. You have to email in a form for the combination, then call Hyatt to make the booking with the combined points. I don't believe simple transfers from one Hyatt account to another Hyatt account are allowed.
You do need to email (or mail) the form, but once the points are transferred they're not treated any differently to the "other" points in the account of the person receiving the transferred points. They can be used as normal (you can make booking using the points from your Hyatt app, on Hyatt.com, call center, concierge, etc).
As mentioned, there is the restriction around only allowing 1 transfer every 30 days. That's probably not an issue for most people who aren't up to no good

Thank you, CoffeeTraveler!

Another issue... I've booked the brand-new HR ZRH for February. Currently, there's an opening offer (reduced rate, free room upgrade...). Also, there's a separate 500 bonus points per night offer until good for stays completed by the end of January '21. I strongly suspect the 500 bonus points offer will be extended. After all, the HR ZRH's opening has been delayed to February 1. The bonus-point offer is kind of pointless without the property being open
Question: Assuming the 500 bonus points offer will be extended through February, would I still be eligible for the bonus despite having booking before it being announced? Or do I really need to book a Hyatt rate which states somewhere in the description "500 extra Hyatt points per night?"

Hyatt to Hyatt transfer is a bit of a pain.

LMK if this should only be asked in MATTRESS RUN FORUM, if you book two rooms do you get double EQ stays? What if in different hotels? I think I know answer but would like to be surprised. Thx

No there is not. I lived here for 20 years now. What I meant was there were legit reasons to rent more than one hotel room at a time. So in my actual scenario I was considering renting an upscale Las Vegas Delano and 2 hours away a st george cat 1 near skiiing.
