Hiya Ivanna,
Welcome to planDisney! We are so happy that you are here! I saw that you reached out to my bestie,
Ana Paula, so I hope I'm able to help you too. I’m so excited for your upcoming trip; by the way,
EPCOT Food and Wine Festival is going to be incredible this year and falls during your visit!
But before I go down that yummy treat trail, let’s chat about your question. I had a chance to chat with Ana Paula because I wanted to make sure I was giving you the best information (she is my go-to for all things Mexico and Disney), and she said that you do not need to show your passport to pick up your theme park tickets. Your Mexico-issued ID is completely fine (feel free to secure your passport in your in-room safe)! Now, as far as using a contactless form of payment for your vacation, that is also completely okay! One of my favorite things about visiting Walt Disney World Resort is that contactless payment like Apple Pay and Google Wallet are widely accepted everywhere! The other day I misplaced my physical debit card (my baby had tossed it on the floor of our resort hotel room), and I just used Apple Pay for everything until I returned to my room!
I hope this was helpful, Ivanna. Before I let you go, if you want a backup payment option, I would purchase some
Disney Gift Cards online before your trip. They can be used for dining, tickets, merchandise,
Lightning Lanes, and pretty much everything. I always like to have at least one with me any time I travel, and I also register it on the website because if one of my two Mouseketeers misplaces it, I can transfer the balance from one card to another! It really helps me travel stress-free. If there is anything else you need, please come back and see us. We are always here to help you, Ivanna.
Happy Planning,
Ashley F.
