A credit card for the hotel loyalty program so many people love features a nice welcome offer.
World of Hyatt Business Credit Card
You can earn 60,000 bonus points after you spend $5,000 in purchases within three (3) months of being approved for the World of Hyatt Business Credit Card.
Here’s how the Hyatt Business Card‘s points earnings break down:
- Earn up to 9X total World of Hyatt points per $1 spent on Hyatt stays
- 4X per $1 on qualified purchases at Hyatt hotels & up to 5X base points per $1 from Hyatt as a World of Hyatt member
- 2X total World of Hyatt points per $1 spent in your top three (3) spend categories each quarter. The eligible categories are:
- Airline tickets purchased directly with airlines
- Internet, cable, and phone services
- Dining
- Gas stations
- Car rental agencies
- Local transit and commuting
- Social media and search engine advertising
- Shipping
- 2X total World of Hyatt points at Fitness clubs and on gym memberships
- 1X total World of Hyatt points on all other eligible purchases
My guess is that most of your purchases will be in those 2X categories (especially airline tickets, internet-cable-phone services, dining, and gas stations) with maybe some Hyatt spending in there, as well.
Hyatt Places are fantastic steals — nice properties for very low award rates.
Hyatt Business Credit Card Perks, Benefits, and Features
The Hyatt Business Card gives you and up to five employees receive Discoverist status. No, it’s not Globalist or even Explorist. But Discoverist is part of the special “World of Hyatt” lane at front desks. That’s amazing when the regular check-in lines are long and slow.
You can earn up to $100 in Hyatt statement credits, too: spend $50 or more at any Hyatt property and earn $50 statement credits up to two times each anniversary year.
You also earn five (5) Tier-Qualifying night credits toward status and Milestone rewards for every $10,000 you spend during a calendar year (get that Globalist status!)
The card carries a $199 annual fee.
Here’s something I don’t love about the card: it doesn’t come with an annual Free Night certificate like so many other hotel cards do — even some with lower annual fees.
It’s a Chase Card
The Hyatt Business Card is a Chase product. Even though this is a business credit card, you’ll probably be denied if you’ve been approved for five or more personal credit cards within the past 24 months. But we’ve heard stories about Chase thawing its 5/24 policy — especially with business credit cards.
