Hey there, Kelly!
Welcome to planDisney! One of my favorite things about staying in the Disney bubble is how easy it is to just tap my MagicBand and have everything seamlessly charged to my room. It really makes me feel like a Disney villain with a no-limit credit card (but in the best way, of course).
While a MagicBand is the easiest way to make purchases, you also have a couple of other options! You can use a Key to the World card (available at your resort’s front desk) or a
Disney MagicMobile pass (which can be set up in the
My Disney Experience app and added to your phone’s Wallet). If you’re staying at a Disney Resort hotel, all three of these methods will allow you to charge food and merchandise purchases to the credit card linked to your room. If you need help setting up Disney MagicMobile for room charging, just stop by the front desk, and a friendly Cast Member will be happy to assist!
A helpful tip: Your room charges will automatically be processed to the credit card on file on the last day of your trip, so there’s no need to stop by the front desk unless you’d like to apply Disney Gift Cards toward your balance. If that’s the case, be sure to visit the front desk before midnight on the night before checkout to have them applied before your final payment is processed. You can also track all of your room charges anytime in the “Hotel Reservation” section of the My Disney Experience app.
For even more convenience, you can also save a payment method in your My Disney Experience app to use as a contactless option when placing
Mobile Food & Beverage Orders and using
Merchandise Mobile Checkout at select locations. To set it up, open the app, tap the three small lines at the bottom right of the home screen, and scroll down to select “My Profile.” Then, choose “Payment Method” (located just under “Mobile Device Notifications”) and click “Add a Payment Method” to securely store your credit card information.
Hope this helps, Kelly! Wishing you a trip filled with magic, Mickey-shaped snacks, and plenty of tap-to-pay conveniences!
