Hello there, Parys. Welcome to planDisney!
I'm also a
Disney Rewards Visa Cardholder, and like you, I'm always trying to make it work for me! Whether it's
taking advantage of a Special Offer,
earning and then
redeeming Disney Rewards Dollars, or a combination of both, I love maximizing my card's benefits. And speaking of maximizing the benefits, make sure to consult the
My Disney Experience mobile app when you're at the resort this November to see if and when the exclusive meet and greets for Disney Rewards Visa Cardholders are taking place. Did you know that there are usually two available? I've done the
Disney Visa Cardmember Photo Opportunity at EPCOT, but I haven't yet done
the Star Wars version in Disney's Hollywood Studios. I'll be there in November as well, trying it out!
While you'd need to
call a friendly Cast Member at the resort to confirm if a discount was applied to your November hotel stay, I
can tell you that there are Special Offers made available for Disney Visa Rewards Cardholders from time to time. While I don't see one currently listed, you can always check out the
Special Offers page periodically to see if deals are made available. When they
are available, you typically need to select the offer when you go to book and ensure that it can be applied to the room, vacation package, or theme park tickets you are looking to purchase. On the page where you are picking the room type at the hotel you'd like to book, you can often see the offer types listed toward the top of the page, under the blue bar that shows your dates, how many Guests, and which hotel. If the offer you'd like to use isn't listed or you can't select it, it's likely not available for the type of product you are trying to purchase. And, of course, if you're booking an offer for Disney Rewards Visa Cardholders, you typically need to use your card to pay for it! Also, while not a discount on your room or tickets, make sure you
check out the discounts available to you on select dining, shopping, and specialty entertainment around the resort. Plus, under the terms and conditions of your card, you can usually earn dollars that you can later spend when charging to your card!
Speaking of discounts, did you know that
there is typically a discount available for Disney Visa Rewards Cardholders at the Disney Store? While this perk is subject to change, it's typically 10% on eligible purchases, but at certain points of the year, it's more! And
you can often find some Disney Parks merchandise here, too. So, if you're looking for something to wear from the parks on your vacation or you're missing the parks when you get home, this can come in quite handy if the item is available on the website!
Parys, I hope you find
all the deals! If you have any other questions,
feel free to send them my way.
When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to buy...I mean, do,
Matt
