(Direct link to issuer does not currently earn a commission on this card.)

Good to know before you apply

Subject to Chase's 5/24 rule (no approval if you've opened 5+ personal cards across any issuer in the last 24 months).
Earns Hyatt points DIRECTLY (no Chase Ultimate Rewards detour) - so the points are stuck in Hyatt's ecosystem.
Anniversary free night is Cat 1-4 STANDARD rooms only - not valid at Miraval, Hyatt Zilara/Ziva, or for all-inclusive packages.
$15K-spend bonus night is per CALENDAR year (Jan 1 - Dec 31), not your cardmember anniversary year.
The 5 elite-qualifying nights per year + 2 more per $5K spend (uncapped) is what makes this card useful for chasing Hyatt status.
Auto rental coverage in the US is SECONDARY (your personal auto insurance pays first).
Spending climbs the Hyatt ladder fast: 2 tier-qualifying night credits for every $5,000 spent (uncapped), plus a second Category 1-4 free night after $15,000 - a genuine path toward Globalist for heavy spenders.

If you stay at Hyatt even occasionally, this card pays for itself before you finish unpacking. $95 a year buys a Cat 1-4 free night every cardmember anniversary - typically a $200-300 value at most properties - plus a second night if you spend $15K in a calendar year. Earn 4x at Hyatt, 2x on the categories most points-people actually use (dining, airfare booked direct, transit, gym), 1x everywhere else. Comes with auto Discoverist status (the entry-level Hyatt tier), 5 elite-qualifying nights per calendar year, and 2 more for every $5K spent - uncapped, which is why this card has a cult following among status-chasers. 0% foreign transaction fees. Earns Hyatt points directly (no Chase UR detour). Subject to Chase's 5/24 rule, so plan your card-app order accordingly.
