Hiya Theresa!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I peeked at your history, and you have stayed at some of my favorite Resort hotels! I can’t wait to hEAR which one you’ve chosen for this visit!
So,
mobile ordering is fantastic! It makes dining so convenient (just like your
MagicBand makes getting in and out of the Parks super easy!). We tend to pick our meals while waiting in line for
an attraction (this way everyone has the time to peruse the menu without time pressure), and then as soon as we finish the ride, head in the direction of our dining location and press the “I’m here” button. We usually are off the attraction and eating within 15 minutes, which is a total game changer!
You can choose how you pay for your
mobile meal. You can use a credit card, debit card, or the Disney Dining Plan (if I remember correctly, you said you weren’t participating this time around, no worries!). You can store your debit or credit card on your
My Disney Experience account, and then that is what you will use to pay. If you pay for
your food via MagicBand (while ordering in-person), that can be charged to the credit card associated with your Resort Hotel reservation, and then clear those charges with gift cards at the hotel.
Theresa, if you have any other questions, you know where to find us! ChEARs to a magical vacation!
