Earn 30,000 bonus points after spending $3,000 in 3 months, plus up to 30,000 more points by earning 2 points per $1 on purchases in the first 6 months.

Our Take

The anniversary free night at a Category 1-4 Hyatt easily covers the $95 fee, even a Category 1 Hyatt Place clears it. If you stay at any Hyatt once a year, this card pays for itself.
