We consider this card a long term keeper but the welcome offer is never that exciting. But we keep it because you’ll get a Free Night Award every year on your account anniversary (for a Category 1-4 hotel) and instant Discoverist status (which is helpful for guaranteeing breakfast at Hyatt Places not that it’s not a guarantee).For anyone trying to earn Globalist or trying to earn 20 Elite Night credits to get Club Lounge Access, this card is a also must! You’ll get 5 elite night credits added to your tracker just for holding the card.
The standard sign up offer is 30k bonus points. In January 2025, we saw a small jump up to 35k and then it decreased in July 2025, down to 25k.
In February 2026, we saw a tiered offer for up to 5 free night awards (Category 1-4) but it required a spend of $15,000 for the full bonus.
