If you have an upcoming stay at any Hyatt property, the World of Hyatt personal and business cards can help save you a ton of money on that trip and beyond.

Let's take a look at the offers on both cards and see how the current offers compare to their respective offer histories.

Welcome offer: Earn up to 65,000 points: 35,000 points after spending $3,000 within the first three months from account opening, plus up to 30,000 more points by earning an additional point per dollar on purchases made in the first six months or the first $15,000 spent.

TPG values this bonus at $1,105, making this the best welcome offer we've ever seen on this card.

Annual fee: $95

Earning rate: 9 points total for Hyatt stays — 4 points per dollar at Hyatt hotels and 5 points per dollar as a World of Hyatt member — plus 2 points per dollar at restaurants, on airline tickets purchased directly from the airlines, on local transit and commuting and on fitness club and gym memberships, and 1 point per dollar on everything else.

Why we like it: The World of Hyatt card has a number of valuable ongoing perks, the best of which is the annual free night certificate at a Category 1-4 Hyatt property, which you'll receive every account anniversary. You'll also get a second free night after spending $15,000 in a calendar year. For more details, see our full review of the World of Hyatt card.

The points-earning rates will be adjusted automatically to the categories where you spend the most each quarter, so there'll be no need to select your preferred categories. Beyond your bonus categories, you'll earn 1 point per dollar on all purchases.

Why we like it: The World of Hyatt Business card offers plentiful value to Hyatt loyalists looking to spend their way toward status benefits, with perks like five tier-qualifying night credits for every $10,000 you spend each calendar year and up to $100 in Hyatt credits annually.
