Legacy Hyatt Card Auto-converting to WOH card

On January 11th all legacy cardholders will automatically be updated to the newer card. If your annual fee is before August, you'll still only pay $75, thereafter all annual fees will be $95. Some of our writers are electing to cancel theirs prior and then apply for the new one to receive a new bonus, which based on the age of the card would be beyond 24 month bonus rule.

The Highlights

Hyatt points are the most valuable hotel points available. Not only are the actual points worth more, but Hyatt is the best hotel transfer partner for Chase Ultimate Rewards. The other great thing about Hyatt points is that they can be used for all-inclusive resorts. We also love Hyatt Hotels in general. They're more universally clean with quality service, whereas many other chains are hit and miss. The drawback to Hyatt is that they don’t have hotels in many smaller cities or more exotic locations.

Hyatt cards are relatively strict on getting second cards, so make good use of your points. We would equate Hyatt Points to dollar bills, Bonvoy to fifty cent pieces, Hilton to quarters and the rest to dimes and nickels.

Status Levels Explained

Hyatt, being one of our favorite hotel brands, gives us a few more reasons to love them. Here is a breakdown of Hyatt’s status’ and why you may want one. All status “earned” nights and points must be for paid services.

What to Know Before Canceling

You won’t lose your Hyatt points if you get rid of your Hyatt card. Points do expire, however, within 24 months of no account activity, so if you cancel your card and are nearing that 24 month mark, you may want to take advantage of the online point combining request form and share some of those points with another Hyatt member at no charge.
