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
- 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
- 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
- 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

- 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

Who do people reach out here to successfully resolve this issue? Do people call Chase or do they call Hyatt?

i would think the easiest way is to secure message chase and if that doesn’t work, call the back of your card.

I believe according to the people who took advantage of a similar offer earlier this year the other 5 nights post later, in some cases a few weeks later.

As mentioned, just wait another month or so. They will post. My took almost 8 weeks to post the additional 5 nights. I had applied in July.

Blogs reporting Hyatt Credit Card will be converted to World of Hyatt card on 1/11/21
Various blogs reporting that legacy card holders are being converted in January.
This might be a good opportunity for legacy holders to cancel in the next few weeks and then reapply for the World of Hyatt card to get the sign up bonus (assuming you haven’t gotten a Hyatt sign up bonus within the last 24 months).

Did I miss this? Got a letter in the mail, in 2022, the 15k is counter will be annual (Jan 1 - Dec 31) and the spend counter reset to zero on Jan 1, 2022. In 2021, you can earn two 15k free nights, one counting spend from your 2020 anniversary to your 2021 anniversary (existing method) and another one from your 2021 anniversary date to Dec 31, 2021.
If only I could figure out if anniversary meant when I first got the old Hyatt Card (which is easy to figure out from my spend history) or when it was converted to the newer WoH card.
Anyway, seems like a positive move, makes the 15k spend counter easier to calculate and offers an extra free night next year to those that can take advantage of it. Though I'm guessing that people with anniversary dates late in the year will complain.
Letter from Chase attached.
