    Can I use Apple Pay to pre-pay my hotel room?

    Hey there, 

    Thanks for visiting us at planDisney again! David, we are happy to be able to help again. Making sure your accommodations are taken care of is very important. 

    Once I begin planning a visit to Walt Disney World I always think about our accommodations, and making sure they are taken care of as early as possible. That’s always my job as the planner of the family, and it sounds like you may need to make payments to secure a place for you to stay. When it comes to making a payment for your room, Apple Pay unfortunately is not an accepted method of payment. Visa, MasterCard, Discover Card, American Express, Diners Club Charge Card, JCB (Japan Credit Bureau), Disney Gift Card, Disney Rewards Redemption Card, Click to Pay, PayPal are all accepted. If you have to use Apple Pay because of some kind of points or rewards, maybe purchasing Disney Gift Cards with your Apple Pay could help you achieve your goal. 

    When you visit the parks like Magic Kingdom Park, there are a lot of locations where you will be able to use Apple Pay. In fact, most locations will accept Apple Pay in my experience. If you haven’t already, make sure you order a MagicBand+. You would get a discount with your reservation for everyone in your party. This is an awesome way and easy way to make payments for food as well as enter the park as your ticket instead of using your phone. It also gives you an opportunity to display your unique Disney style. I usually check the website about once a month leading up to my visit, but I always order two months before so I can have them come to my home and be excited about them before the trip starts. 

    If you are visiting in 2025 guests staying at Disney Resorts Collection Hotel have an awesome benefit for the visiting the water parks. On check-in day you will be able to visit the water parks for free! That’s right there is no better way to splash into your vacation by visiting Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon. If you are celebrating, you can usually get a celebrating pin at any of the parks. And I think the coolest one, that not a lot of people know about is at the water parks. You are able to get a temporary tattoo version of these pins and I think that’s the coolest thing going. So if you are like me and love rare, Disney items that celebrating tattoo is definitely at the top of my list. 

    Have a magical stay, 

    Jeremy A.
