Hi Penny! Thanks for dropping by planDisney.
Yes, if you prefer to use cash, you can use it as your method of payment throughout Disneyland Resort. I know that's one way to stick to a budget, which is always a concern for my family when we are vacationing.
I will say that the convenience of
mobile order is a real plus for us as a family, however. When we're waiting in a queue for our favorite attraction, I can ask my family what they want for lunch, place the order, and select a time to pick it up, all without waiting in an additional line. Little members of the family especially appreciate that convenience once they decide they're hungry!
Panelist Kamini has a great workaround for still using cash and sticking to your budget while being able to use the handy mobile order feature on the Disneyland mobile app. Buying a
Disney Gift Card before your trip or once you've arrived with the cash you have set aside allows you to stay within your budget and use the mobile order feature.
I hope this helps! Have the best time.
