Hi Melissa, and welcome to planDisney!
I use
Disney Gift Cards quite frequently when visiting Walt Disney World Resort. I like to pick them up from time to time at a slight discount at my local warehouse club. At this time, Disney Gift Cards cannot be
stored as payment methods in
My Disney Experience. You can still use Disney Gift Cards as payment for in-app purchases, such as when using
Mobile Food & Beverage Ordering. I recommend storing the gift card numbers as a note in your phone so you will be able to copy and paste rather than typing the numbers in each time you are completing a purchase.
One of my favorite uses of Disney Gift Cards is sampling my way around
EPCOT at the many
outdoor kitchens available during the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. The booths do accept both physical gift cards and egift cards as payment. For even more convenience, look for the special festival Disney Gift Cards with a wrist strap. You'll find them for sale in many merchandise locations at EPCOT and also at Guest Relations.
I hope that helps! Please stop by and see us again if you have any additional questions. Enjoy your visit!
