    I'm going to be checking into Pop Century for my first trip ever to WDW, which will also be solo, on January 25th. Will I be able to put cash down for charging privledges instead of a credit card? Also, what would I do if I spend less than I put down?

    Hi, Jeffrey!  You can absolutely give cash to the front desk to be put "on account" so that you can use your Key to the World Card for charging privileges throughout the Walt Disney World resort.  You will not be able to charge more than what you deposit, and my suggestion to keep track would be to periodically stop back at the desk during your vacation to check your available balance.  

    You should go the night before you are due to check out to settle your account.  At that time, any money that you have not spent will be refunded to you.  A final folio (statement of your account) will be placed under your door or hung on your doorknob before you depart in the morning.

    I am so excited for you that you're taking your first trip to Walt Disney World!  I hope you enjoy the Pop Century resort (have a piece of tie-dyed cheesecake for me!), and I hope you make many happy memories!  

    Have a GREAT time!
