New: Up to 9 points per dollar on stays at World of Hyatt's new Mr & Mrs Smith properties
There are some pretty great promotions out from World of Hyatt, including an opportunity to rack up a ton of points via a new hotel partnership.
World of Hyatt Credit Card (see rates and fees) members will now earn up to 9 World of Hyatt points per dollar on Mr & Mrs Smith stays.
But you don't need to be a cardholder to get bonus points. All World of Hyatt members earn 5 base points per dollar on room rates at participating Mr & Mrs Smith hotels when booked through Hyatt channels. Cardmembers will now also earn an additional 4 bonus points per dollar spent on room rates when those stays are booked and paid for with a World of Hyatt Credit Card.

That's great news, especially since when the news of Hyatt's acquisition of Mr & Mrs Smith hotels first broke, World of Hyatt Credit Card and World of Hyatt Business Credit Card (see rates and fees) holders were not eligible for bonus points when using their cards at those properties.
Here's a chart of the other benefits for World of Hyatt members when staying at Mr and Mrs Smith hotels.
World of Hyatt members will also receive credit toward earning tier status and Hyatt Milestone Rewards, credit toward a Brand Explorer award (which allows guests to earn a free night for every five unique Hyatt brands you stay at), and room upgrades for Globalist members at check-in (based on availability).
The bonus on spending at Mr & Mrs Smith hotels will come in handy for me for an upcoming stay at Hotel Kompas Dubrovnik in Croatia.
My total bill will be about $837, which will give me more than 7,500 World of Hyatt points because I'll use my World of Hyatt Credit Card to pay for the stay. That's before the bonus points I get through my World of Hyatt Globalist status, which gives a 30% points bonus on Hyatt spending, resulting in an additional 1.5 points per dollar spent.

There are a few other promotions to flag. World of Hyatt members can save up to 15% on stays through Jan. 4, 2025, at participating hotels in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, the Asia Pacific region and Latin America when booked by July 9, 2024. Use the special offer code "STAYNOW."
Finally, World of Hyatt has extended its offer for double elite night credits on stays at its Thompson and Dream hotels. World of Hyatt members can earn double tier-qualifying night credits for every eligible night completed at Thompson and/or Dream hotels when registered by June 30, 2024, for stays until July 15, 2024.
