No, American Express points don't transfer to Hyatt, as the luxury brand is not included in Amex's transfer partners. The Amex hotel partners are Hilton Honors, Marriott Bonvoy, and Radisson Rewards.

No, Hyatt (World of Hyatt) is not a direct transfer partner of American Express Membership Rewards. This is a common point of confusion for points-and-miles enthusiasts because Hyatt is a marquee partner of Chase Ultimate Rewards. You cannot move Amex points directly to Hyatt at a 1:1 ratio. However, in 2026, there is a "workaround" that involves transferring Amex points to Marriott Bonvoy or Hilton Honors and then attempting to move those to other partners, but this almost always results in a massive loss of value and is not recommended. If you have Amex points and want to book a Hyatt stay, your most efficient path is to book through the "Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts" or "The Hotel Collection" portal using your points at a value of 1 cent per point, though this won't give you Hyatt "points-style" outsized value. For those whose primary goal is Hyatt stays, the best strategy remains using a Chase Sapphire or Ink card, as the 1:1 transfer from Chase to Hyatt remains the "gold standard" of travel rewards, often yielding values of 2 to 3 cents per point for luxury stays at Park Hyatt or Andaz properties.
