Hey there, John!
It sounds like you are getting all your Disneyland ducks in a row for a magical visit in just a few weeks. We're so happy you stopped by with your question! We love sharing our experience in the Disney parks with fellow Guests and helping them navigate their path to the magic.
Adding a credit card to your profile is easily done with a few taps in the
Disneyland Mobile App. When you open it up and log into your account, head to the three-line icon in the bottom right-hand corner, scroll to "My Profile", and tap into "Payment Method". You will see the option to tap the "+" to add a payment method. Just follow the instructions from there, and you should be ready for your visit! You can also go through this same process on the website directly by hovering over the "My Disneyland" tab along the top navigation bar and selecting "Profile". Along the left-hand side, just under your character icon, you will see "Payment Methods".
Now, you've virtually turned your phone into your own magic wand! You will be able to maximize your time in the magic by
Mobile Ordering your quick service meals and snacks. I love this feature and typically use it multiple times a day. My go-to snack is a Mickey Beignet from
Mint Julep Bar. If you place an order as you are stepping into the queue for Pirates of the Caribbean or Haunted Mansion, you can typically secure a pick-up window perfectly timed to when you step off the attraction. And who doesn't love a melt-in-your-mouth beignet to snack on as you make your way to your next stop!
Did you know that you can also use "
Merchandise Mobile Checkout" now that you've set up your payment method in the app? Skip the queue at select merchandise locations and check out directly on your phone! Once you've made your selections, tap the "+" along the bottom navigation bar of your phone, and select "Merchandise Mobile Checkout". A list of retail locations offering this service will appear for you to choose from. The next step will be to scan the barcodes of your items and complete your purchase. On the way out of the store, look for the mobile checkout kiosk, flash your QR code to a Cast Member, and you'll be on your way faster than Lightning McQueen can race through Radiator Springs.
I hope this has helped prepare you for your upcoming visit to the Happiest Place on Earth! You're in for a trip filled with unforgettable memories, especially with the
70th Anniversary now in full swing. If you have any more questions, we are always here for you at
planDisney.
Magic awaits!
