World of Hyatt adds new limit to award gifting

World of Hyatt is arguably the easiest, most generous program when it comes to sharing benefits with others. All awards earned through the Milestone Rewards program, including free nights, suite upgrades, Guest of Honor, and club access, can be transferred to other members with the click of a button.

Until now, there were no restrictions on the ability to gift or receive awards. However, Hyatt has added new terms and conditions stating that, starting June 7th, all World of Hyatt members will be limited to receiving a maximum of ten per calendar year:

As of June 7, 2025, a Member may be gifted a maximum of ten (10) transferred awards per calendar year in accordance with the process described above. This restriction applies only to the receipt of transferred gift awards. Members remain able to transfer as many eligible awards as they choose.

This limit will apply across all the different types – for instance, if a member has received five Guest of Honor certs and five suite upgrades, they wouldn’t be able to receive any more within the same year.

Quick Thoughts

I’ve long assumed that there would eventually be some sort of limit placed on transferring award certificates. There’s a robust market for buying and selling them (which is against the terms and conditions) and it only makes sense that Hyatt would put a speed limit in at some point.

Placing that limit at ten per member is still fairly relaxed…a household of two would be able to receive up to twenty per year. I’m not sure how much that will dampen the resale market, but it seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to do that will still allow the vast majority of World of Hyatt members to receive as many as they can use each year.
