AMEX Offer: S$75 back on S$300 spend with World of Hyatt

American Express has launched a new AMEX Offer for World of Hyatt properties, which gives registered cardholders a S$75 statement credit with a minimum spend of S$300 at participating hotels by 15 December 2024.

There’s an extensive list of participating locations worldwide, including Australia, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, among others. 

Registration is required, and can be done via the AMEX Offers portal. 

Get S$75 back on S$300 Hyatt hotels spend

American Express cardholders who are registered for this offer will receive a one-time S$75 statement credit when they spend at least S$300 in one or more transactions at participating World of Hyatt properties from 1 November to 15 December 2024.

Here’s the key details to take note of:

• The minimum spend of $300 can be made across different participating properties; there is no need for you to spend at a single location
• Offer applies to room charges only; incidental spend like restaurants or spa treatments is only eligible if charged to your room during your stay and paid at the front desk during check-out
• Excludes payments made for events, meetings, conferences, banquets and/or wedding packages
• Excludes online payments
• An overall registration cap of 25,000 cards applies

As a reminder, you must pay in-person at the front desk to trigger the offer; any online payments will not qualify.

The offer is only valid once per registered card, but if you have been targeted for the offer across multiple AMEX cards, you can register all of them and enjoy the offer as many times as you have cards. 

Do note that the payment must be made by 15 December 2024 to be eligible for this offer. If your check-in date is before 15 December 2024 but your check-out date is after, I’d recommend asking the front desk to charge your card in full at the time of check-in (a pre-authorisation won’t count!).

Statement credits will post to your account within 15 business days, but are usually done much faster. 

Which locations are participating?

This offer is valid at selected World of Hyatt properties in:

• Australia 
• Austria
• China
• France
• Germany
• Indonesia
• Italy
• Japan
• Malaysia
• Singapore
• South Korea
• Spain
• Switzerland
• Thailand
• United Arab Emirates
• United Kingdom
• Vietnam

It’s a very healthy-sized list, with both the Andaz and Grand Hyatt participating in Singapore. But do remember you’ll need to actually stay at the hotel for the credit to trigger; it’s insufficient to just drop by for a meal.

Be sure to check whether any of these hotels are offering luxury advisor rates with Hyatt Prive or Virtuoso, as these come with additional amenities like complimentary breakfast and a US$100 hotel credit and will trigger the AMEX Offer when paid at the front desk. These price the same as the hotel’s best available rate, and can be booked through HoteLux or other luxury travel advisors. 

Other AMEX hotel credit offers

In addition to the World of Hyatt offer, American Express is currently offering the following statement credits with other hotel chains, as summarised below.

Keep in mind that registrations are limited, so if you’re just seeing this now, it may no longer be possible to register. 

Conclusion

American Express cardholders can now register for a S$75 statement credit with a minimum spend of S$300 at a participating World of Hyatt hotel by 15 December 2024.

This joins an already-impressive slate of hotel credit offers, and while the earn rate with AMEX cards may not be the best, the savings are likely to more than outweigh any foregone rewards.
