Hi Carol!
A warm welcome to planDisney. Thank you for sending us your great question about
cashless payments at Walt Disney World Resort.
In an effort to reduce contact and keep our Guests and Cast Members safe and healthy, Guests are being encouraged to use low-contact payment options, including credit cards, debit cards, and Disney Gift Cards.
Additionally, Guests can opt for entirely contactless payment options, such as mobile wallets or Apple Pay. If you are carrying cash, you can use cash to purchase a Disney Gift Card at Guest Relations and other merchandise locations.
Lastly, for a low-contact option, Disney Resort hotel Guests can use their
MagicBands to charge their purchases to their
Disney Resort hotel room folios.
However, if none of these options work for you, I am happy to report that cash is still being accepted throughout Walt Disney World Resort. We understand that some Guests do not have smartphones or contactless payment options, and while we encourage them to consider the alternatives, we are still accommodating them by accepting cash.
Carol, if you would like to learn more about the phased reopening of Walt Disney World Resort and the many ways we are trying to keep the magic alive and keep our Guests and Cast Members healthy, please

If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to visit planDisney again! We are all EARS!
Wishing you a Magical Vacation,
Priscila
