Chase Hyatt Credit Card: 60,000 Point Bonus Returns (30k Requires $15k Spend)

Update 2/5/23: This is actually the same crappy 45,000 point offer as before, just misleading with the bonus points.

Update 2/5/23: Deal is back.

Our Verdict

We’ve previously seen a 60,000 offer that only required $6,000 in total spend, whereas this new offer requires $15,000. Even the targeted 70,000 offer only required $10,000 total spend. The offer seems misleading as it’s total of 2 points per $1 spent, so really only an additional 1 point per $1 spent. That makes the bonus actually a maximum of 45,000 points, worse than the standard offer of 50,000 points that requires only $6,000 in total spend.  The 50,000 point offer is still available via referral.

Because of that reason I won’t add this to the best credit card bonuses.
