Hi, Joe! Thanks so much for taking the time to visit planDisney. You've asked a great question!
I like to think of my
MagicBand as the "Key to my Kingdom." I have quite the collection, and I love theming them to my park outfits! If you have a Walt Disney World Resort hotel reservation, then you may have pre-ordered them through your
My Disney Experience account; if that's the case, then your MagicBands should be automatically linked. If you have a MagicBand that you like from a previous trip, and it is in working condition, you can
reuse it, and it will be automatically linked as well!
If you have purchased MagicBands through
shopDisney or at a Walt Disney World Resort merchandise location, you need to
link them through your My Disney Experience account. First, choose "MagicBands and Cards" from the menu, and click on "Need to link a purchased MagicBand?" You will then enter the ID number found underneath the MagicBand and select who will use it on your
Family & Friends list. Now your MagicBands should be ready to enjoy!
I hope this helps, Joe. If you have any more questions before your trip in April, please feel free to write back. See ya real soon!
