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
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

Missing five qualifying nights from World of Hyatt card promo
Posting in case others run into this issue with the new promo. I recently applied for and received the Chase World of Hyatt card for the "10 qualifying night credits" promo. The promo specified ten qualifying nights for 2020 and ten for 2021. Just logged into my World of Hyatt account and only see five nights credited. Anyone else getting this issue? Are they crediting nights in two installments?

I cancelled mine earlier this week, and will apply for the new card early next week - if I remember I will post the result. If you cancel, make sure that the balance is paid in full first (as you know already if you have read through this thread).

There have been several data points reported of 5 nights posting, and then the other 5 nights posting up to a couple of weeks later. My partner had exactly this happen last month, FWIW.

Hi guys, follow up to my original question. I have the legacy card that is scheduled to be converted at the beginning of January. I don't want to cancel it yet to apply for the new WOH card because I have the spend $4k get a free night promo right now. Question is, after the conversion in January, of which I will recieve 5 elite nights. If I cancel and apply for the WOH card, will I receive 5 additional elite nights? Thanks

I would think if your SUB includes elite nights, then you should get those. However, if it's the standard 5 nights for holding the card, you probably won't as you will essentially be carrying the same card. I can't imagine anyone would get a total of 10 elite nights by canceling a card early in the year & reapplying for the same card later the same year. Note that this is my best guess & I have no evidence to suggest that it won't work, though.
