Practical Recommendation
This card is built for people who actually stay at Hyatt sometimes and like simple value. The annual Category 1–4 free night plus automatic Discoverist status and five elite night credits each year do most of the work. If you also put a few restaurant or airfare charges on it, the math gets even easier.
If you never see a Hyatt and do not want to track a free night certificate, skip it. Bottom line: casual Hyatt guests get easy, repeatable value from a low annual fee; points chasers can spend toward extra elite nights if that is your thing.
Credits
- DoorDash DashPass (12 months) + $10 Quarterly Discount – Activate DashPass with your card between Feb 1, 2025 and Dec 31, 2027 to get a year of free delivery membership; while enrolled, you also get $10 off one non-restaurant order each calendar quarter. Activation required, payment must be with this card, and unused discounts do not roll forward. Nice if you already use DoorDash; ignore it if you do not. — See DashPass terms • Card-specific details

Practical Tip
You can edit the amounts in the number fields if you value a credit at less than the full value. For example, if you only use a $10/month Uber credit half the months, you might value it at $60 instead of $120.
DoorDash DashPass + $10 Quarterly Discount
| What It Is: | Complimentary DashPass for 12 months (if activated 2/1/2025–12/31/2027) plus $10 off one non-restaurant DoorDash order each calendar quarter while enrolled. |
| How It Works: | Add this card as your default payment in DoorDash, tap "Activate," then pay with this card; the membership turns on immediately, and the $10 quarterly discount appears in your promo wallet for one eligible non-restaurant order. |
| Gotchas: | Must activate within the promo window; membership auto-renews at the then-current rate unless you cancel; the quarterly $10 is use-it-or-lose-it and applies to subtotal only (fees/taxes/tips still apply). Digital wallets and third-party subscriptions generally do not qualify. |
| Who Actually Benefits: | People who already place at least one non-restaurant DoorDash order every few months (convenience stores, groceries, etc.). |
| Practical Value: | Real savings if you already use DoorDash; worth $0 if you do not. |

This is effectively what you are paying for this card. It is now up to you if the perks, protections, and earning rates are worth this fee to you over other cards.
Perks
- Earning rates (detail) – 4x at hyatt hotels & resorts; 2x at restaurants, airline tickets purchased directly from airlines, local transit & commuting, and fitness club/gym memberships; 1x on everything else. Use it at Hyatt and for common travel/food spends.
- Discoverist status – Automatic as long as you keep the card open; think minor upgrades, late checkout where available, and premium internet. Good baseline perks for occasional Hyatt stays.
- Elite night credits – Get 5 tier-qualifying nights each calendar year, plus 2 more nights for every $5,000 in spend. Helpful if you are pushing for Explorist or Globalist without living in hotels.
- Annual Free Night Awards – One Category 1–4 free night each card anniversary, with a second Category 1–4 free night after $15,000 in calendar-year spend. Easy value if you can aim one or two stays at eligible properties.
