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

Does that include WoH credit card EQN earning? If not, spending the additional 5K on the card might be cheaper depending on how much you've spent on the card already.

I gave you two likes, but then I had to make it 3 because of software limitations.

Yep that's correct. The 'up to 30,000 points'... ya know, the one where 15k of them are 'rightfully' yours and the other 15k are bonus, are only for 'everyday' purchases which don't fall into another category. So you could spend a million bucks at Hyatts, gas stations, restaurants, gyms, etc (the bonus categories) and not trigger this bonus.

In the App I can see the bonus everyday spend in the past activity tab in the Account section. I tossed rent on the card to meet the spend requirement with one transaction and got 2x for it. I might do it again so with that and my 8 nights at SLH properties next week I hit the $15k spend free night award.

Hyatt CC and timing around 5 qualifying nights
Not clear from the T&Cs of the CC for me.....it says you will receive the 5 qualifying nights within 8 weeks of opening the card. Are the 5 nights credited from when you receive them or when you open the card? I am considering opening this card as a final bump to get me to Globalist for the year. But, the timing of when these nights hit and which year they count towards are key to that.

Sorry this is a newbie question but related to the WOH CC so decided to post it here. Just want to make sure...
Are the eligible nights tied to each 5k when you paid the balance...or tied to the spending on the card itself before paying it off?
I have a major spend upcoming for my next statement closing Dec 4th, with my due date for paying being Jan 1st. I would like to have it count towards next year. Thanks!
