    Can I use the Disney gift card to buy my theme park ticket If so how I already added it to my Disney experience app

    Welcome back to planDisney, Annmarie!

    You have asked a fantastic question regarding Disney Gift Cards and purchasing Theme Park Tickets for Walt Disney World. Let's take a look at the specifics.

    When you go into your My Disney Experience app, you can find the option to Buy Tickets and Passes when you click on the + sign the very bottom of the screen. Select the type of ticket you'd like, then when you get to Payment Info, you should see your saved Disney Gift Card as an option there. If you don't see it listed, select + Add a Gift Card. This will allow you to add the available gift card balance to your ticket purchase. Easy peasy!

    One thing I love about Disney Gift Cards is that I can hang onto a physical gift card for future use after adding it to my Disney Gift Card account online. You can store up to 6 Disney Gift Cards and can even transfer balances from one to another. This transfer includes gift cards delivered electronically via email. I'll hang onto a physical gift card that has no balance remaining so that I can reload it with an amount I've ordered on a gift card delivered via email. So useful when you'd like to have a physical card on hand as a last-minute gift!

    Annmarie, have so much fun planning your visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth. When you have additional questions about those pixie-dusted plans, be sure to send them our way. We love to help!
