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

I upgraded my card yesterday morning and the five nights are now showing in my account this morning.

I'm very interested in data points on this as well.

I'm trying to decide if I should apply next week (just cancelled old one last week Thursday) or in 30 days. Since it's a "new" product I'm wondering if there's any reason to wait at all.

Three days ago, I canceled my original card that I have had for over two years and just received approval for the new Hyatt Visa card. I called and verified that I would be eligible for the 60k bonus after meeting the spend requirements.

That is an interesting data point. The normal rule that the credit card pushing travelblogs use is to wait 30 days after cancelling a Chase card before reapplying for the same card.

I think that rule is when the card is the same exact card, IE, If it was 24 months since you got a United Mileageplus Explorer card bonus, cancel, wait 30 days, then apply for the United Mileageplus Explorer card.

This being a different card (World of Hyatt Credit Card vs the "Chase Hyatt Visa"), it SHOULD be less.

I'm encouraged by the DP. I just cancelled my Chase Hyatt Visa today. I'm going to wait about 5 days or so to apply. The card is already appearing as cancelled in my account, so I am technically in compliance with the rule "this offer is not available to current cardholders".

It's not the same card.

I canceled Thursday and applied today -- why take 2,000 points when you can have 60,000? I got a message saying it would take up to 30 days to hear back. I called Chase and eventually spoke to someone in their lending department. He said that it was rejected, without a credit pull, because I still had a balance on my old card. I then went online and pushed through a payment and will wait a few days for it to post. At that point, I'm told I should be approved, though it may take 1-2 weeks to get the actual card because partner cards also have to get approved by the partner.

Hmmmm, I had wondered whether the bloggers might not be completely transparent in their reasons as to why they say wait 30 days. Anyone know whether affiliate links for bloggers are available 30 days after new products are released?

Nearly all posts have indicated that you can't have both at the same time?

I called and talked with an agent about upgrading. Offered 2000 points. She said since I had the current card I would be eligible for 60,000 point sign up if I cancelled card and then applied. Asked her how long I had to wait. She told me card was cancelled and I could reapply immediately. So I did. Got the response that I would get a letter in 30 days after applying with decision. Called the next morning to get an update and was told I was rejected due to being a current card member. Said she was not allowed to reconsider. I asked her their policy on accepting responsibility for information given by their employees and she had no answer for that.

Does anyone know if it resets the 24 month 'sign up bonus' clock if you take the 2K points upgrade offer?

Trying to figure out if it makes the most sense to just wait another year for the 24 months to run up on my last promo.
