Hello, and welcome to
planDisney, Susan, we thank you for your excellent question!
The
world of possibilities opens up with the
Disney Gift Card which is currently accepted at the
Disney Resorts and
Disney Cruise Line, for the purchase of
Disney Parks theme park tickets, Disney Dining, at the
Disney Stores and shopDisney online, including participating Disney-owned and operated locations at the
Downtown Disney District. I recommend asking a Cast Member before considering your purchase or paying for your meal just to be sure because there are many independent venues that will not accept the
Disney Gift Card at
Downtown Disney District..
Susan, you will be able to check your balance and reload your
Disney Gift Card easily online through the
Disney Gift Card website. Did you know that you can also add the
Disney Gift Card (up to six cards) as a form of payment in the
Disneyland Mobile App? I find that so convenient, and I never fear losing my physical card that way because all information is securely stored in my app on my Disney account. To add your
Disney Gift Card(s) to your app, access the
Payment Method via the
My Profile section on your
Welcome Susan page.
Speaking of the
Disneyland Mobile App, it is so handy in managing plans before and during your visit and with an updated
Payment Method, you can enjoy the contactless convenience of
Mobile Food & Beverage Ordering, and
Merchandise Mobile Checkout vacation essentials.
Using the
Disneyland Mobile App you can even join
walk-up waitlists for participating Disneyland Dining Table-Service Venues for all in your travel party - some of those popular venues are tough to score 60 days ahead, but people cancel sometimes making space for you!
Save time waiting in lines for attractions that offer the Lightning Lane entrance by purchasing the
Disney Genie+ service as soon as you enter a theme park using the
Disneyland Mobile App. Plus, when you purchase the
Disney Genie+ service you will enjoy unlimited digital downloads of
Disney PhotoPass service attraction photos including Magic Shots from the day - how great is that?!
Susan, it was my great pleasure assisting you today, I hope you have a wonderful visit to the
Disneyland Resort!
Best Disney Dishes!Jacqueline
