Limited-Time Offer of Bonus Elite Nights

If you’ve been considering opening a World of Hyatt card, this limited-time offer might make now the perfect time to do so.

New applicants can earn up to 60,000 bonus points, alongside double qualifying nights on stays. Cardholders will earn 30,000 bonus points after spending $3,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening, plus up to 30,000 more bonus points by earning 2 points per $1 spent in the first 6 months, applicable to purchases that typically earn 1 point per $1 — valid on up to $15,000 of spending.

Additionally, new account holders can earn 2 total tier-qualifying nights toward World of Hyatt status for every eligible night of Hyatt stays from October 16, 2025, through January 31, 2026 — up to 15 nights.

This offer for points and status credits is available to customers who apply for the World of Hyatt card by November 20, 2025.

By staying 15 nights and earning double stay credits, you could easily reach Hyatt’s Explorist status, the program’s middle tier that requires 30 nights in a year.

Beyond the welcome offer, the World of Hyatt card also comes with 5 automatic elite night credits per year. Factoring in those 5 automatic nights, you’d only need to stay 13 nights to qualify for Explorist status. There are still 2.5 months left in 2025 for you to spend 13 nights at Hyatt properties for this year’s status earning.

For the stay to be eligible, it must be booked directly with Hyatt via its website or mobile app. Both paid and award stays using points are eligible.

Hot Tip:

The World of Hyatt card is a fantastic tool for climbing through the ranks of Hyatt’s loyalty program. In addition to the new limited-time welcome bonus elite nights and the 5 annual complimentary elite nights, cardholders earn 2 elite nights for every $5,000 spent on the card each calendar year.

Why We Love The World of Hyatt Credit Card

The World of Hyatt card is undoubtedly one of the best co-branded hotel credit cards on the market. If you’re a frequent Hyatt hotel guest, then it’s a no-brainer.

The best part is that the long list of perks and benefits comes with a very reasonable price tag of just $95 per year. Cardholders can enjoy the following:

  • Automatic Discoverist status, Hyatt’s lowest elite tier
  • 5 automatic elite night credits annually
  • Complimentary free night award, valid at Category 1-4 properties
  • Earn another Category 1-4 free night award after $15,000 in spending in a calendar year
  • Earn 2 elite night credits for each $5,000 of spending on the card

Final Thoughts

The potential to earn up to 15 bonus elite nights has made the World of Hyatt card even more desirable.

When you factor in the ability to earn up to 60,000 bonus points from the card’s welcome offer, this fan-favorite hotel credit card is hard to beat for anyone who stays at Hyatt properties on a regular basis. If you’re interested, make sure you apply by November 20.
