Hello there, my fellow South Carolinian!
Walt Disney World does indeed allow you to make payments on any Magic Your Way Package. Magic Your Way Packages consist of resort room, park tickets and the option of dining. Park tickets that are purchased separately must be paid in full at the time of purchase and room only resort reservations require a 1 night deposit with the remaining balance due upon check-in.
A $200 deposit is required to book a Magic Your Way Package, the remaining balance can be paid whenever and however you wish as long as it is paid in full 45 days before your check-in date. Payments can be made by using check, credit/debit card or Disney Gift Cards. Disney Gift Cards can be a great option as many retailers offer incentives for purchasing gift cards and will run special deals especially throughout the holiday season. Disney Gift Cards can also be used almost anywhere and for anything on Walt Disney World property, which really help you to stay on budget. I do stress that if you choose to use Disney Gift Cards,do not throw them away even if there is a zero balance left. If for any reason you have any portion of your balance refunded to you, the amount will be refunded to your original method of payment.
Another great way to save money on your Walt Disney World vacation is to keep on eye on any of
Disney's Special Offers that you may be good during the dates your are visiting. Special offers are available throughout the year and can be added even after you have booked your Walt Disney World reservation.The savings will be deducted from your amount due or if you have paid your balance, the difference will be returned to you original method of payment.
I hope this helps, Hayley and please visit me again for more ways to save on your next Walt Disney World vacation!
Best Wishes!
