    We only have cash to pay for food in Disney World and Epcot. Will that be okay?

    Hiya, David, and welcome to planDisney! Your Walt Disney World Resort visit will be here in a flash, so let's talk about accepted payment methods around the theme parks. Like my used to say, the time always comes to pay the piper!

    While policies can change, you'll be happy to know that most quick-service and table-service locations throughout Walt Disney World accept cash. During the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, which is going on now, you might find that some of the Outdoor Kitchens are cashless and only accept credit card payments. But I have some tips for that!

    If you're staying at a Disney Resort Hotel, you can link a credit card to your room folio and make charges with a MagicBand or Disney MagicMobile Service. Another option is to use cash to purchase a Disney Gift Card. Most locations and festival food trucks accept Disney Gift Cards, and the cute festival wristlet card makes a fun keepsake!

    David, I hope your visit is full of riches and treasured memories. Please stop by planDisney anytime. Our advice is priceless...and free!

    Magic awaits,
    Elaine
