Chase and Hyatt Expand Partnership
Hyatt Hotels has revealed an expanded agreement with Chase, building on the current collaboration between Hyatt and Chase that rewards World of Hyatt cardmembers for stays across Hyatt’s global portfolio.
The expanded partnership will include a new benefit for premium Chase cardholders that will launch next year. Top spending Chase Sapphire Reserve and Sapphire Reserve for Business cardmembers will get World of Hyatt Explorist status beginning in the middle of 2026.
They didn’t share details about what “top spending” means, but it will likely be a benefit for those who spend $75,000 or more. That is already a spending threshold to get benefits such IHG One Rewards Diamond Elite Status and Southwest Airlines® A-List Status.
Hyatt said in the announcement that it will also continue to increase the number of luxury and premium brands, such as Park Hyatt and Alila, participating in The Edit by Chase Travel.
Additionally, Hyatt plans to expand its card portfolio as Hyatt and Chase continue to grow their relationship, building on the success of its current co-branded credit cards. Current products include the World of Hyatt Credit Card and the World of Hyatt Business Credit Card.
