World of Hyatt has partnered with Peloton to offer members the chance to earn loyalty points by completing Peloton workouts during their hotel stays. With this new collaboration, Hyatt becomes the first hospitality loyalty program to reward guests for Peloton workouts on property globally.

Starting today, members who link their World of Hyatt and Peloton accounts can earn 100 bonus points for each completed workout on a Peloton Bike or Row at over 700 participating Hyatt hotels worldwide. Guests can earn points for up to 10 qualifying workouts per month, each lasting at least 20 minutes, allowing them to accumulate up to 12,000 bonus points per year.

TJ Abrams, Hyatt’s Vice President of Global Wellbeing, said, “We have taken feedback from our guests and members that they want to keep their routines while traveling. This new collaboration ensures guests can be at their best while on the road by making their wellbeing routines easier and more rewarding.”

The partnership extends beyond equipment-based workouts, with participating Hyatt hotels offering in-room Peloton content, including stretching and bodyweight exercises. Additionally, equipment-free Peloton classes will be available for corporate meetings and conferences at select locations, helping attendees stay energized during events.

Guests without a Peloton account can sign up for free at participating Hyatt hotels in regions such as the U.S., Canada, U.K., Germany, Austria, and Australia. World of Hyatt credit cardholders will also enjoy exclusive perks, including 2x bonus points per $1 spent on Peloton equipment and subscriptions, as well as discounts on Peloton products, including Bikes and Treads.

Greg Hybl, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Peloton for Business, shared his enthusiasm for the partnership: “With Hyatt, we are making it easier and more rewarding than ever for Peloton Members and Hyatt guests to do more of what they love while they travel. Together, we’re redefining what it means to stay active and motivated on the road.”

This collaboration adds another layer to Hyatt’s strategy of promoting wellness through personalized guest experiences. Members can now stay on top of their fitness goals while traveling and earn points to redeem for future bookings, upgrades, and exclusive experiences.
