Hey there, Tracy! Welcome to planDisney, and thank you so much for stopping by with your question!
Oh boy! I can see your visit to The Happiest Place on Earth is just around the corner—how exciting! The countdown is nearly over, and in just a few days, you’ll be surrounded by garland-lined streets, shimmering ornaments, and the delightful scent of gingerbread drifting through the air—
Disneyland’s holiday magic at its most enchanting! But before your adventure begins, let’s make sure your account details are set so everything goes off without a hitch.
You’ll be happy to know that updating credit card information in your MyDisney account just takes a quick moment! Simply open the
Disneyland mobile app, tap the menu (☰) button, and under the “Account” section, choose “My Profile.” From there, tap “Payment Method.” You’ll see all the cards currently linked to your Disney account. Simply tap “Edit” below the card you’d like to update, and adjust the name to match your husband’s. Once you save your changes, you’ll be all set—ready to make purchases with the correct information.
If you’d prefer to do this from a computer instead, just
log into your Disneyland account and select “Payment Methods” from the menu on the left-hand side. You’ll follow the same steps there—just tap “Edit” next to the card you’d like to change, make your updates, and save. Easy as can be!
Now, Tracy, since we’re talking about payment methods, it’s the perfect time to mention some of the awesome conveniences that come with having a card linked to your Disney account. Once your payment information is up to date, you can take advantage of
mobile food and beverage ordering right from the Disneyland app. I use this all the time when I visit—it’s such a time-saver! You can browse menus, customize your order, and pick up your meal from select
quick-service restaurants when it’s ready, all while spending less time waiting in line.
You can also use
Merchandise Mobile Checkout at select stores throughout the Disneyland Resort. With this handy feature, you simply scan your items in the app, pay using your linked card, and show your QR code to a friendly Cast Member on your way out—no waiting for a register to open. It’s the perfect way to make your shopping experience as smooth and magical as possible (especially during the busy holiday season when everyone’s looking for the perfect gift or keepsake).
Tracy, I hope this helps make things crystal clear and gives you a few ideas to make the most of your upcoming visit. With your account all set up and your card linked correctly, you’ll be ready to experience the convenience—and the magic—of the Disneyland app from the moment you arrive.
Wishing you a merry and magical holiday season filled with joy, laughter, and maybe a
few festive treats along the way!
