Hey Sejal!
Welcome to planDisney. Thank you for stopping by with your wondEARful question about
health and safety protocols in Walt Disney World Resort.
Sejal, you can most certainly use cash to complete dining and merchandise purchases in Walt Disney World Resort. The use of cash is not heavily discouraged.
Contactless options have been encouraged during the pandemic to help better preserve the health and safety of Cast Members and fellow Guests. However, cash has always continued to be accepted.
MagicBands must be linked to a credit or debit card. At the current time, you cannot use cash to pay off balances associated with MagicBands.
Sejal, I hope this helps answer your question. If you have any other questions, please visit planDisney again. We are always hEAR to help you!
Wishing you a Magical Visit,
Priscila
