Is 60k points the highest we’ve seen?

We have seen a 75k welcome offer after $7500 spend in 3 months. This is a lower offer but lower spend as well

What are Hyatt points worth?

I believe the cheapest they’ve ever been directly sold was roughly 1.7c a pop

What is the adaptive accelerator? Earn up to 2x where you spend most

Every quarter, you will earn a 2x point bonus on the categories where you spend most – this is in addition to the 1x you get everywhere, so its doubling your points. In 2022, you’ll earn it on your top 3 categories, and then in 2023 that number will drop down to 2. Here’s a list of the categories included

• dining;
• airline tickets purchased directly with the airline;
• car rental agencies;
• local transit and commuting;
• gas stations;
• internet, cable and phone services;
• social media
• search engine advertising;

What is Hyatt Leverage?

It’s a program whereby you can get discounts between 5 and 15% when making business bookings. You can join here.

How does the $100 statement credit work?

It’s divided into 2 separate $50 statement credits and can be used at Hyatt properties worldwide. You don’t need to stay at the hotel to use the credit, so if you’re a fan of the local Hyatt restaurant…you’ll get credit there.

Is this card affected by 5/24?

Yes, you will not be approved if your credit report reflects opening 5 or more new accounts in the past 24 months

Can you hold the business and personal versions?

Yes, that’s not problem at all as long as you fall below Chase’s 5/24 rule

How does this card compare to the personal World of Hyatt Credit Card?

Here are the biggest differences in my opinion:

The personal version includes:

• A free night up to category 4 after each account anniversary
• Category 1-4 night after spending $15k
• 2 elite nights every $5k you spend
• Annual fee is $95

The business card includes

• Adaptive Accelerator
  • earn 2x on the categories you spend most
    • dining;
    • airline tickets purchased directly with the airline;
    • car rental agencies;
    • local transit and commuting;

    • internet, cable and phone services;
    • social media
    • search engine advertising;
    • shipping
• 5 nights every $10k in spend
• 10% back on award nights after hitting $50k in spend
