Hey there! Hi there, Jessica! I am thrilled to see you back at planDisney with a trip on the horizon. Cue Tiana. I'm already singing, "I'm almost there!"
I am the biggest fan of
MagicBand+. The minute I click it on my wrist, I know I am leaving today and entering the worlds of yesterday, tomorrow and fantasy. My brain
automagically activates "Disney Mode." I am hooked on that feeling!
If you are staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel, you can use your MagicBand+ to make purchases throughout
Walt Disney World Resort and have the charges added to your resort bill. Now, I still take a credit card, just in case, but leaving those artifacts of my life outside the Most Magical Place on Earth in my backpack makes me happy.
I wish there were a list I could share, Jessica. Since many of the stores in
Disney Springs are not owned by Disney, this is where you are most likely to find businesses that do not accept MagicBand+. My friend Brent shared great information on
his list of stores in Disney Springs that accept MagicBands+.
My friend
Sue also shared this gem: To see dining locations at Disney Springs that take MagicBand+, check out the list of restaurants participating in the
Disney Dining Plan.
Another tip: If you have an
Annual Pass or are a
Disney Vacation Club member, you can get a discount on many dining and gift shop purchases by showing your
MagicMobile pass in your digital wallet. If you have a
Disney Rewards Visa card, you may need to use the credit card at the restaurant or shop to receive any discounts available for cardholders.
I hope this information helps, even though I couldn't direct you to a single list. If we can help with any other questions, you know you have a friend in
planDisney.
See 'Ya Real Soon!
