Signup bonus: 30,000 points after $3,000 in 3 months. We never count unearned bonuses in savings math — a bonus you don't clear is worth zero. Headline is 'up to 60,000': 30,000 after $3,000 in 3 months, plus up to 30,000 more via 2 points per $1 on the first $15,000 spent in 6 months. The figure here is the guaranteed part. Bonus figure confirmed on the issuer's page 2026-09-14.

Does the fee earn out? · how we got this

The $95 fee minus $0 in printed credits leaves $95/yr to earn back through rewards — roughly $3,167 of dining spending at 2x (valuing World of Hyatt points at the same mid-range value the optimizer uses). Whether that clears depends on your actual spending.

Who this card is not for

Every point below is a term the issuer prints, read off this card's own row in our database — not an opinion about the card. One thing on this card rules out a kind of spender:

Anyone who doesn't spend at Hyatt. Its largest printed rate, 4x on hotels, pays only at Hyatt. Anywhere else it earns its base 1x, so the headline number is a loyalty rate rather than a category rate — which is why no ranking on this site counts it.
