World of Hyatt Credit Card benefit details and notes


Anniversary Free Night Award (Category 1-4)
  • Issued 10 weeks after cardmember anniversary date
  • Expires 1 year after issuance
  • Ineligible for use with Club Lounge Access Awards and Complimentary Suite Upgrade Awards
Additional Free Night Award (Category 1-4) with $15k spend
  • The spend counter for this benefit tracks total cumulative purchases during the current calendar year (excluding $95 annual fee and any other non-qualifying transactions).
  • The spend counter for this benefit resets at the beginning of every calendar year. Chase does not make this spend counter visible to customers, so interested customers must calculate their own. Note that this is a separate spend counter from the "Two Additional Night Credits" spend counter below.
  • Issued 1-2 days after statement closing date of the triggering transaction (the transaction causing the spend counter to cross $15k)
  • Expires 1 year after issuance
  • Ineligible for use with Club Lounge Access Awards and Complimentary Suite Upgrade Awards
  • Cardmembers are eligible for only 1 Additional Free Night Award per calendar year (e.g., spending $30k does not result in two Additional Free Night Awards
Two Additional Night Credits with every $5k spend
  • The spend counter for this benefit tracks total cumulative purchases since account opening (excluding $95 annual fee and any other non-qualifying transactions)
  • This spend counter never resets. Chase does not make this spend counter visible to customers, so interested customers must calculate their own. Note that this is a separate spend counter from the "Additional Free Night Award" spend counter above.
  • Issued 1-2 days after statement closing date of the triggering transaction (the transaction causing the spend counter to cross a multiple of $5k)
  • For World of Hyatt status qualification purposes, the night credits are associated with the TRANSACTION date of the triggering transaction, not the posting date and not the statement closing date. For example, triggering transactions on 12/31/2022 (transaction date) will result in 2 night credits for the 2022 status year, regardless of posting date or statement closing date. Based on FT reports, transaction date appears to be based on the US Eastern Time Zone.
  • World of Hyatt Credit Card: timing for $5k spend 2 qualifying nights
Other Benefits
  • 4 Bonus Points per $1 spent on purchases at Hyatt hotels
  • 2 Bonus Points per $1 spent on restaurants, airline tickets purchased directly from the airline, local transit and commuting, and fitness club and gym memberships
  • 1 Bonus Point per $1 spent on all other purchases
  • Discoverist status every year
  • 5 qualifying night credits every year
  • No foreign transaction fees
  • Travel & purchase coverage

Other notes and tips


Chase spending tracker
  • The Chase spending tracker is useful for calculating your spend counter for the $15k Additional Free Night Award and your spend counter for the Two Additional Night Credits
  • Chase mobile app: "View all transactions", then switch to the "Spending Summary" tab
  • Chase website: From the main page, on the right hand side, click the "Spending & Budgeting" menu, then choose "Spending Summary"
  • Remember to add spend from prior calendar year(s) as needed (see spend counter notes above), and to subtract $95 annual fee and any other non-qualifying transactions from all years
  • Full list of non-qualifying transactions: returns, refunds, balance transfers, cash advances, travelers checks, foreign currency, money orders, wire transfers or similar cash-like transactions, lottery tickets, casino gaming chips, race track wagers or similar betting transactions, any checks that access your account, interest, unauthorized or fraudulent charges, and fees of any kind, including an annual fee

Sorry couldn't find it but has anyone had the 40k signup bonus post? If so, when after the MSR was met?

How would you handle this situation?

It's been >24 months since I've received the bonus on the old Hyatt card, so I am planning to cancel and apply for the new product. My anniversary and thus award night are approaching in September. I'd like to wait to cancel until that award hits my account, but I'm wondering how much Chase might frown on the timing of that - receiving the free night and then canceling either before the AF posts, or shortly after to receive a credit. Any experiences here with this or other cards that have awards tied to the card anniversary? I'd even be fine telling Chase to keep my $75 and forgo any credit, as I'll get more value out of the award night, but I'm assuming these types of things are generated automatically.

You get the bonus shortly after your statement closes (provided you met the required spending threshold).

Thanks...I'll wait a few more days. I have met the MSR and points from spend have posted, just waiting for the signup bonus.

Is Hyatt going to release this card anywhere else in the world beside the US?

I want to apply for the new world of hyatt card with the bonus. Should I cancel the old (HYATT) card I have prior to applying?

Thanks

Yes. Also wait a couple of days with a $0 balance.

This is what I am planning to do: Wait until anniversary award night posts in mid-September (I already received an email reminding me that it was coming), then cancel before the AF is due in October.

Remember, by the way, that once the award night is issued, it is basically something between you (or me) and Hyatt, not you (or me) and Chase. Not like Amex clawing back its own points from its own accounts.

If I am reading you right ("these types of things are generated automatically") then, yeah, approval for the new card will depend on whether we qualify on universalistic terms (waited a few days, have no balance to payoff, haven't gone hog-wild on new cards recently [speculative; I know 5/24 does not formally apply], credit score, and so on). Those are likely programmed into the decision algorithm. Resentment ("Hey, I just gave you a free night and look what you are asking me for now!") likely is not.

I cancelled my cards 33 days ago, and applied for the WoH today.

I got the 30-days messages. Could I call the reconsideration lines as follows?

I think the benefits of WoH suit me better than old hyatt, so i closed the old hyatt and apply the WoH. Does this sound good?

I'd call, I don't think there's really any downside, as long as your polite, etc.

sometimes it's a real quick fix (like moving credit limit over from another card). Sometimes it's been flagged for whatever reason for manual review, but calling may expedite this.

I’m curious about this as well. Statement closed on August 8th and got my points from spend, but not the bonus. How long is it taking usually?

Does anyone know if the 2 elite nights from spending $5,000 post right after I spend the $5,000 during the anniversary of the card?

Indeed, I received the card by regular mail (the kind that looks like bulk commercial without a postmark) on Monday 8/20. One interesting note -- I was approved on 8/9 or 8/10, added an authorized user on 8/11, and both the primary & the AU cards came together in the package, side by side.

In any event, glad to have the card ^ the 4x Hyatt and 2x Uber will come in handy, not to mention the bonus points.
