Other Ways to Earn More Hyatt Points

The most straightforward way to earn Hyatt points is through stays at Hyatt hotels. Here's how you earn points on Hyatt stays. Boost your earnings further by utilizing Hyatt promotions — such as the recurring Hyatt Bonus Journeys promotion.

You can boost your World of Hyatt balance further by selecting bonus point options through Hyatt Milestone Rewards. If that's not enough, you can buy Hyatt points, although we only recommend doing so during a promotion.

But the best way to get a bunch of Hyatt points quickly is by transferring points in from a flexible points program or earning the welcome bonus on a World of Hyatt credit card:

Our Take

Based on recent AwardWallet user redemptions, World of Hyatt points are worth 2.19¢ each. At this rate, the 500-point Hyatt new hotel bonus is only worth around $11 per night, so it's not worth going out of your way to visit these hotels. But if you can stay at one of these hotels in the next couple of months, then it's a great way to boost the points you already earn on Hyatt stays.

When you book, don't forget to use The World of Hyatt Credit Card (Rates & Fees) or World of Hyatt Business Credit Card (Rates & Fees) to receive 4X points on qualifying purchases. These cards also offer automatic Hyatt Discoverist elite status, plus cardholder promotions like award rebates.
